The Nemesis of Mediocrity is a book written by Ralph Adams Cram and published in 1917. It is a collection of essays that explore the theme of mediocrity and its impact on society, culture, and art. Cram argues that mediocrity is a pervasive force that stifles creativity and innovation, and that it is the enemy of excellence and progress. He examines the roots of mediocrity in education, politics, and religion, and offers a critique of the prevailing values and attitudes that promote conformity and discourage individuality. The book also includes a series of essays on architecture, in which Cram advocates for a return to traditional styles and techniques, and argues that modernism is a product of mediocrity. The Nemesis of Mediocrity is a passionate and thought-provoking work that challenges readers to question their assumptions and strive for greatness in all aspects of life.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
