JCR Vol 10 No 1: Symposium on the Media and the Arts (ebook)
type: Product
description: This issue is based almost entirely on essays from the Western Conference on the Media and Arts. The Conference itself marks the first time Chalcedon has sponsored such an event, and it may be the first conference of its type in the American Christian community. The essays from the Conference span almost the entire range of endeavor in the Media and the Arts, the tone of which is well established by R. J. Rushdoony in, “The Meaning and Greatness of Christian Art.” This finely cut gem matches well a second essay, “Humanistic Art as the Opium of the Masses.” These essays could form the nucleus of a major work on art criticism. “The Myth of Neutrality,” by Franky Schaeffer V, “The Artist as Propagandist,” by Otto J.

Griffith, “Making the Sale to Television,” by Richard E. Germaine, “Ox for Hire,” by Joe David Taylor, and “Art and Capitalism: A Peace Treaty,” by Paul Lyons, are examples of essays by writers who are appearing for the first time in the Journal. All these men actively work in the fields on which they speak. Fourth, is an important sermon, “On the Covenant of God with the Israelites,” by Jacques (James) Saurin. It speaks against and predicts the sad outcome of the pietism which dominates so much of Christendom today, and it was preached more than 200 years ago when the seeds of pietism first took root in Europe and America. Indeed, if we had listened then, there would be no need for a Conference on the Media and Arts which calls us back to the faith once given unto the Fathers.
