Civilization: A Personal View by Kenneth Lord Clark
Civilization: A Personal View by Kenneth [Lord] Clark (1969) In this gem of a PBS humanities documentary, Clark is extraordinarily erudite, and offers an astonishing range of artistic examples. A 12-hour "must see", once one accepts the English upper class arrogance of Lord Clark, who disdains economics and rejects post-modern art. Clark starts with Irish Christians in 500 A. D., then proceeds with Western art, music, literature, and architecture until the 20th century.
