| Sumario: | The paradigmatic moment of the opposition between the verbal and the visual arts may be seen in Lessingâs treatise on the Laocoén sculptural group, written in 1766; a moment that is identified within a historical framework of modern aesthetics that begins with Lessing; that goes through Pater; and then culminates in Greenberg. I delineate the opposition as a history of diffusions, displacements and idealist reparations of class division. From the vantage point of my argument, the reader can experience a watershed in a critical tradition that has emerged in Williams' The Long Revolution (1961), Culture (1963) and Keywords (1976); Thompson's Working Class (1963) and Customs (1993); Schweizer's Ut Pictura Poesis (1972); Berger's Theory (1984); Wellbery's Lessing's Laocoön (1984); Mitchell's Iconology (1986); Summers' Judgement of Sense (1987); Rancière's Nights of Labor (1989) and Politics (2007); Eagletonâs Ideology (1990); Jay's Downcast Eyes (1994); Kirby's Telling Flesh (1997); Barnard's Art (1998); Jameson's Postmodernism (1999); Edgar's Key Concepts (1999); Schoroederâs Visual Consumption (2002); Eldridge's Philosophy of Art (2003); Kelly's Iconoclasm (2003); Malshe's Aesthetics (2003); Hall's Subjectivity (2004); Stallabrass' Contemporary Art (2004); Heffernan's Museum (2004) and Cultivating Picturacy (2006); Szerszynski's Nature (2005); Cottington's Modern Art (2005); Day's Class (2007); Hawkes's Ideology (2007); Gillespie's Theological Origins (2008); and Crawford's Shop Class (2009). |
