Is Life Worth Living? by William Hurrell Mallock
page 16 of 281 (05%)

And this will show us how the moral judgment is the chief faculty
to which all that is great or intense in this art appeals 136

We shall see this, for instance, in _Macbeth_ 137

In _Hamlet_ 137

In _Antigone_ 137

In _Measure for Measure_, and in _Faust_ 138

And also in degraded art just as well as in sublime art 139

In profligate and cynical art, such as Congreve's 140

And in concupiscent art 141

Such as _Mademoiselle de Maupin_ 141

Or such works as that of Meursius, or the worst scenes in
Petronius 142

The supernatural moral judgment is the chief thing everywhere 143

Take away this judgment, and art loses all its strange interest 144

And so will it be with life 145

The moral landscape will be ruined 145
