| Summary: | 碩士 === 國立中央大學 === 藝術學研究所 === 85 === This dissertation intends to study Zola's art criticism. The
focus sets onthe disparity between Zola's conception of art and
his art criticism to Manet's works. After textual investation,
I found these two matters do not hold the hypothesis of
consistency, i.e. the link between Zola's conception and his art
criticism to Manet's works exists the disparity. I
interpretatethis phenomenon as follows: Zola's conception of art
extends from his statement of Naturalism in literature, not
entirely from the art works, in other words, Manet's works didn'
t maintain Zola's conception of art. This dissertation is
divided into four parts. The foreword exposes the motiveof this
study and clarifies the scope of the investigation. The critical
survey of bibloigraphy on Zola's art criticism in the
introduction of original texts of Zola's art criticism are also
found in this foreword. Chapter 1 presents the background
information of Zola's art criticism, includingthe biographical
materials of Emile Zola and the review of Zola's art criticismto
Manet's works. Chapter 2 exhibits three categories of Zola's art
criticism after examining closely the texts of Zola's art
criticism to Manet's works:"A work of art is an individual ""A
work of art is a coin of the creation seeingthrough a
temperament"," Art aspires for objective and precison". Chapter
3 explains Zola stressed the discription of theme and formal
aspects of Manet's works which are deciant from Zola's
conception of art when he criticized them.I give a calculation
of the ratio of Manet's works appearing on the Zola's
artcriticism which shows Zola's conception of art doesn't depend
on the works of art. Chpater 3 stands for the conclusion of this
dissertation. There are also postscript and appendix in this
dissertation. The postscript explains the weakness of this study
and future expansion. The appendixincludes chronology of Zola,
the translations of selected Zola's art criticism,the pictures
of Manet's paintings, and index.
