The Beautiful Necessity / Seven Essays on Theosophy and Architecture by Bragdon, Claude Fayette ( Author )
N.A
01-01-1910
Click "free sample" to read the whole book no need to purchase. The Beautiful Necessity was first published in 1910. Save for a slim volume of privately printed verse it was my first book. I worked hard on it. Fifteen years elapsed between its beginning and completion; it was twice published serially—written, rewritten, and tre-written—before it reached its ultimate incarnation in book form. Confronted now with the opportunity to revise the text again, I find myself in the position of a surgeon who feels that the operation he is called upon to perform may perhaps harm more than it can help. Prudence, therefore, prevails over my passion for dissection: warned by eminent examples, I fear that any injection of my more mature and less cocksure consciousness into this book might impair its unity—that I “never could recapture the first fine careless rapture.”
