“Between Two Worlds” Hans Gerth

  • 45 Accesses

Abstract

The first of Gerth-Mills’ cooperative works was to translate excerpts from Die altdeutsche Malerei (Old German Art) by Ernst Heidrich Jena, 1909. Gerth selected a few paragraphs relating to Matthias Grünewald, a contemporary of Albrecht Dürer, from the book for use in his class. It consists of only 1-1/2 pages and states on the front page of the mimeographed copy “Translated, July 1941, by H. H. Gerth and C. Wright Mills.” Gerth gave full credit to Mills, although Mills clearly could not read it well in terms of the language nor its content..
