The Artistic Sterility Of The Church is a critical analysis of the role of art in the Church, written by Joseph McCabe. The book explores how the Church's emphasis on crude emotionalism has led to a lack of artistic creativity and innovation. McCabe argues that the Church's focus on dogma and ritual has stifled artistic expression, leaving the faithful with a limited and uninspiring artistic experience. He also examines the historical context of the Church's artistic tradition, tracing its roots back to the early Christian era and exploring how it has evolved over time. The book is a thought-provoking critique of the Church's approach to art and its impact on the faithful.Contents: The Alleged Beautiful Services, There Never Was A Catholic Art, Few Poets And Vapid Hymns, Masses Composed By Skeptics, Why A Dead Language Is Used In The Liturgy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
