The Spirit of the Age

By Gil Bailie inBlog

Posted on: Dec 21, 2023

“Sometimes, as in the cases of the iconoclasm and destruction of art that attended both the Protestant Reformation and the French Revolution, the attack has been less on high culture per se than on the entire ancien régime. We rejoice in our abandon and are never so full of the sense of accomplishment as when we have struck some bulwark of our culture a deadly blow.”* Glenn W. Olsen
*The Turn to Transcendence, Catholic University of America Press, 2010, 110.
