Summary "Sämmtliche Werke 6: Arabesken, Prosaschriften, Rom" by Nikolai Vasilevich Gogol is a collection of essays and prose writings written in the early 19th century. This work is part of a larger multi-volume collection that showcases Gogol's reflections on art, history, and culture, with an emphasis on the emotional and aesthetic experiences derived from various forms of creative expression. The themes explored in this volume include the nature of sculpture, painting, and music, as well as historical commentary, indicating a profound engagement with cultural history and artistic philosophy. The opening of this collection presents Gogol's thoughts on art, particularly celebrating the triad of sculpture, painting, and music. He personifies each art form as sisters, attributing to sculpture a sense of physical beauty and a connection to ancient civilizations, while extolling painting and music for their emotional depth and capacity to convey the human experience. Gogol suggests that these artistic expressions serve as essential pathways to understanding and experiencing the world around us, culminating in a powerful plea for the importance of these arts in contemporary life. Through evocative imagery and rich descriptions, the opening sets a tone of appreciation for beauty and an earnest reflection on the role of art in society.
