History of Civilization

Amos Dean

Description

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. Thus bringing these various things together we would say that art is an habitual power in man, of becoming the cause of some effect, according to a system of various and well approved precepts; that it acts only on the con tingent, which is within the reach of the human powers to influence; that its final cause or motive is the absence or want of something appearing good, relative to human life, and attainable by man, but superior to his natural and uninstructed faculties; and that it will be accomplished and ended in an energy or a work.
