IMAGE OF THE SEA - HOWARD ISHAM GEBUNDEN

This book explores the unprecedented surge or oceanic feeling in the aesthetic expression of
the romantic century. As secular thought began to displace the certainties of a sacral universe
the oceans that give life to our planet offered a symbol of eternity  rooted in the experience
of nature rather than Biblical tradition. Images of the sea permeated the minds of the early
Romantics  became a significant ingredient of romantic expression  and continued to emerge in
the language  literature  art  and music of the nineteenth century. These pages document the
evidence for this oceanic consciousness in some of the most creative minds of that century.
