Saturday, December 08, What would Christmas be without love? I think I'm goin' back To the things I learned so well in my youth I think I'm returning to those days When I was young enough to know the truth Now there are no games to only pass the time No more electric trains, no more trees to climb Thinking young and growing older is no sin And I can play the game of life to win.
I can recall a time When I wasn't ashamed to reach out to a friend Now I think I've got a lot more than just my toys to lend Now there's more to do Than watch my sailboat glide And every day can be My magic carpet ride. A little bit of courage is all we lack So catch me if you can, I'm goin' back.

Sunday, December 02, Lessons from the Dreyfus Affair. Mirka, you pose an important question. Boime's "Social History of Modern Art" and Kunzel's study of the history of fashion have prompted me to consider the social structures that exist around an artwork. Pulling a painting out of its time and pinning it alone in a case like a rare butterfly often leads to a limited understanding of an artwork.
Degas' moral failings are problematic and are important to consider in the broader understanding of the man and the artist. The comparison between Degas and Emile Zola concerning the anti-Semitic campaign against Captain Dreyfus is revealing. Zola's powerful "J'accuse" shows that the case against Dreyfus had no merit. I can still appreciate the art that Degas created but I am troubled by his prejudice.
The anti-Semitism in Zola and Degas' time was horrid and based on the dangerous thought that Jewish French citizens were somehow un-French. Zola helped free Dreyfus from prison but the anti-Semitism in French society remained, and as Donald Morrison notes, contributed to the discharge of more than 75, French citizens and refugees to Nazi death camps during WWII.
In our current Trumpian age when anti-Semitism is on the rise, the Dreyfus Affair is more than a cautionary tale from the past. Instead, it is a dire warning that the demonization of others can lead to brutal crimes against humanity. I'll let Donald Morrison have the final word.
But reading these accounts of France in a similarly anxious age reminds us that a nation once twisted itself in knots over the fate of an obscure Jewish captain — and ultimately chose justice. Thus Dreyfus, the unlikely hero, and France, the faltering beacon, have shown what is possible when people remain true to their values.
