Increasingly, he has become discontent to leave his bronzes bare, painting their stark silhouettes as if providing the emperor's new clothes. Scale, too, remains a concern. A foot will bulk large with deliberate elephantiasis-an indication of foreshortening-or a head will contract into a pin to appear farther away.

This would be created by combining History with the Humanities and including a new "Behavioral Sciences" category (anthropology, psychology, social relations, and "appropriate portions" of Government) along with the traditional "Natural Sciences" in a new "Sciences" category. Humanists like Reuben Brower and Rogers Albritton objected to the debasement of the word "Humanities;" social scientists like Samuel Beer objected to the separation...
