Abstract
IF this manual has a fault, it is not that it is ill-done but that it is done too well. The author has instilled into his account of art a complete philosophy of life. Perhaps it was impossible to separate the two, but it demands of the reader a more than usual concentration of his attention. On the other hand, any one who wants a clear and concise account of Croce's æsthetic doctrine will find it admirably presented in the first chapter.
