It takes the reader through the different milieus of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries - including the World Wars and the Holocaust - to present a unique understanding of Chagall's artistic vision of peace in an age of extremes. At a time when all identities are being subsumed into a \"national\" identity, this book makes the case for a larger understanding of art as a way of transcending materiality. The volume explores how Platonic notions of truth, goodness, and beauty are linked and mutually illuminating in Chagall's work. A \"spiritual-humanist\" interpretation of his life and work renders Chagall's opus more transparent and accessible to the general reader.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt will be essential reading for students of art and art history, political philosophy, political science, and peace studies.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Routledge India","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47616287080599,"sku":"9780367479664","price":13345.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780367479664.webp?v=1775112342","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/marc-chagall-the-artist-as-peacemaker-9780367479664","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
