All sensitive people agree that there is a peculiar emotion provoked by works of art. i do not mean, of course, that all works provoke the same emotion. on the contrary, every work produces a different emotion. but all these emotions are recognizably the same in kind; so far, at any rate, the best opinion is on my side. that there is a particular kind of emotion provoked by works of visual art, and that this emotion is provoked by every kind of visual art, by pictures, sculptures, buildings, pots, carvings, textiles, & c., & c., is not disputed, i think, by anyone capable of feeling it." is a famous writing from;
a. "bell" by clive art

Explanation:

The given extract is taken from the first chapter of "Art" named "The Aesthetic Hypothesis" by Clive Bell. Arthur Clive Heward Bell was born on 16th Sept, 1881. He was an Art critic and Art philosopher.

In his book "Art," which was published in 1914, he theorized art as a "significant form." He said,  

"These relations and combinations of lines and colours, these aesthetically moving forms, I call ‘Significant Form’; and ‘Significant form’ is the one quality common to all works of visual art."

analyzing characters

respond to the following questions in one paragraph for each. use specific examples from the text to support your responses.

1. there is a set of twins on the island named sam and eric. however, when describing them, golding regularly refers to them as samneric. how does this way of describing the twins relate to their behavior and the way that readers understand their characters? what examples of their behavior readers see that samneric is really the appropriate way to refer to them?

2. as the boys set out to search for the beast, ralph allows jack to lead the way, and he sinks to the back of the pack, " to have escaped responsibility for a time." what does this moment lead you to infer about ralph and about his feelings about being the group’s leader? what does this moment foreshadow?

3. while part of the party searching for the beast, simon realizes that the notion of the beast that the other boys have does not make sense. a beast sitting atop a mountain with claws, a beast who did not leave tracks, could have easily caught the twins. simon has a different picture of the beast: "there rose before his inward sight the picture of a human at once heroic and sick." how does this picture relate to the beast that samneric saw? how does it relate to what simon said earlier about the beast being "only us"?
