Baroque is the artistic era of the third quarter of the 16th - mid-18th century. In contrast to the balance of the Renaissance, it is based on the antinomy of body and spirit, where the world, seen as a dynamic, endless unity, is opposed to the world order. The elements of nature, the elements of fate, the passion of instincts are opposed to him. The existing hierarchy of values is understood only as a tribute to tradition and not as a logically grounded universe. The time of the Baroque is the tyranny of rock, a foregone conclusion. Change of states from birth to death. The vanity of dying and the arbitrariness of life. From the ethical side of the baroque - this is ecstasy Theatricalization, acting in front of a passing time of life - such is the baroque scene.
