By Prof. ERNEST A. GARDNER 



RELIGION AND ART IN 

 ANCIENT GREECE 



"Anything from such an authority on 

 Greek art is welcome. This subject in 

 the hands of Professor Gardner becomes 

 a profoundly interesting study in the 

 philosophy of religion. He has dealt with 

 the religion of Greece as it affected the 

 art of sculpture, and with the reaction of 

 that art upon the ideals and aspirations 

 of the people and its influence upon the 

 popular and the educated conceptions 

 of the gods. It is well worth the trouble 

 to study the religious art of such a people, 

 and this is an epitome of the subject 

 such as readers can get nowhere else."
