Poet and philosopher Edward Carpenter explains how the creative processes have changed with the advent of shared cultures, changing how spiritual thoughts and feelings are expressed in art.The author was acutely aware of the contrasts between the established, morally controlled rigors of Victorian society and the emerging artistic and social changes of the 20th century. Carpenter spends much of this book articulating the impressions he has of a changing world; during the Victorian era, he saw most people moving through life tediously as automatons. However, the sudden arrival of new concepts - particularly those introduced by Eastern religions - breathed life and color into the West's stagnant creative fields. This birthed differences in lifestyles, new kinds of art and strikingly original forms of philosophic expression.For Carpenter, this sea change was a result of academics and thinkers translating and introducing the concepts of spiritualism found in the Hindu, Buddhist and Taoist religions. These doctrines upended the staid moral and mental underpinnings of expression in the West, and unleashed profound broadenings of spiritual existence, in deep contrast to traditional social norms and constraints. The knock-on effects of poets more acutely aware of nature, of artists exploring their inner consciousness, and the literary embracing concepts never before put to paper is tremendous.

Love's Coming-of-Age: A Series of Papers on the Relations of the Sexes and Intermediate Sex.

1906. A review of Carpenter's essays on modern science reads: Edward Carpenter is a seer. So say those who know him best; and the reader of this little volume of essays, in which he has put his ripest thoughts, will be inclined to agree with that judgment. He sees into things farther than other men, and has the faculty of looking through the crust of convention and artificiality in which the modern world is embedded. The title of the first essay, which also entitles the book, is a bold one, and suggests the author's aim. He holds that the rather indefinite thing which we mean by civilization has, if used in the definite thing which we mean by civilization has, if used in the definite sense adopted by writers on primitive society, obscured the real life of man and brought about an unhealthy change in the structure of human society. In its historic evolution he finds that these bad changes have coincident with the growth of property and the ideas flowing from it. And he goes on to argue that the social life of the wilder races is more harmonious and compact than that of civilized nations. It may sound startling and paradoxical to say this, but the reader who dismisses such theories as absurd will regret that he has not followed the argument through. Contents: Civilization: Its Cause and Cure; Modern Science: A Criticism; The Science of the Future: A Forecast; Defense of Criminals: A Criticism of Morality; Exfoliation: Lamarck versus Darwin; Custom; and A Rational and Humane Science.
