Medieval Builders’ Esthetic
Taste Based on Religion,
Says Prof. Schroff.
Gothic sji'I tbo ideals of
At. time* whlrfc <»eT<:.«pe,i the style were
dWcuMed by Professor Alfred II
fckdirof' i:i a lecture Tuesday afternoon
before Mr*. Mail/: Holmes Parson*’
<jU»> to Literature of National Idealism,
in the etudlo of tie architecture build
liut. IPruf«««' Bclu-off illustrated bis
Iwrtnre with original photographs of
Gothic cathedral!.
To the fan that men of the twelfth
and thirteenth centuries worked with a
*r>t:„t of reilglouih enthusiasm, Profes
sor Hchroff attributes tlie wonderful es
thetic taste which is so well worked out
In the architecture of their time- “Our
age,” said he, “is entirely too sophisti
cated. Wo have lost the child-like sim
jdietty which fostered the art of 1 he Liter
(middle ng>'n. Art was a part of the
ltfo of those people and to work toward
Jt* perfection wiu their highest aim.”
The present war, according to Pro
fessor Schroff, will do a great, deal to
srard revitalizing modern art which has
loot, through the materialism of the age,
It* finer spiritual qualities. lie believes
that our ie.cn will return from France
with a broader appreciation of life, and
the art Is necessarily a part of it. “Just
ns the Crusaders in the middle ages re
turned from the Hast with renewed in
ternet In art and architecture," lie said,
"sn wfH our men come home from Ku
rope with a deeper love of art in every
form.”
Profewtor [Oliroff has a largo eoliee
t'on of interesting photographs valued at
approximately $1,500. lie will lecture
to the class again on the subject of
«ned;«vnl architecture.
