Art and the Nekyia : a study of the significance of the symbolic descent into Hades in art, myth and ritual
- Authors: Place, L B
- Date: 1975
- Subjects: Hell in art , Death in art , Death -- Psychological aspects , Hell in literature
- Language: English

- Description: Art has very littlo to do with the dead. Death alone is the negation of creation, ,while art is a vital force, a deeply instinctive, everlasting, continual revitalisation. Art is life and nature and it lives in the realms of imagination, magic and mystery. Its language is the language of myth, and its aim is Truth. Art is action and reaction and is reached in silence by the artist alone and individually - its climate is solitude and its paths are as devious and labyrinthine as any the soul can follow in search of self-knowledge and the divine. Chap. 1, p. 1.

Myth and art : a correlation
- Authors: Matthews, Celeste Deluvia
- Date: 1975
- Subjects: Art and mythology
- Language: English
- Type: Thesis , Masters , MFA
- Identifier: vital:2487 , http://hdl.handle.net/10962/d1012844
- Description: The word myth evokes the same response as Lawrence's "snake at the water-trough"; the "voice of my education said it must be killed". We do so by confining it to Classicism or any of the diciplines. Myths in Classical language are Roman or Greek stories of fanciful or bawdy content, with naive or picturesque religious significance. A myth is not a story. There are many who interpret and explain myth. The fantasy doctors are applauded by the fantasy consumers. Intro. p. 1.

The shaman and the artist: a personal enquiry
- Authors: Cull, Cleone
- Date: 1975
- Subjects: Art, Shamanistic Shamans Artists
- Language: English
- Type: Thesis , Masters , MFA
- Identifier: vital:2478 , http://hdl.handle.net/10962/d1010640
- Description: This inquiry incorporates anthropological surveys on the life and character of the shaman, some writings of the American Plains Indians, and artist's, whose life and work reflects the power/life force so integral to the beliefs of these so called primitive cultures. Since the artist cannot be separated from his environment, the actions and reactions of society have also been explored. The method of inquiry has been to establish, first, the way of the shaman, and then the way of the artist. Although each artist, reflects only certain aspects of the enquiry, there is a strong affinity in the life and works of them all.
