Marxist Aesthetics : The foundations within everyday life for an emancipated consciousness, Paperback / softback Book

Marxist Aesthetics : The foundations within everyday life for an emancipated consciousness Paperback / softback

Part of the Routledge Revivals series

Paperback / softback

Description

Originally published in 1984, this study deals with a number of influential figures in the European tradition of Marxist theories of aesthetics, ranging from Lukacs to Benjamin, through the Frankfurt School, to Brecht and the Althusserians.

Pauline Johnson shows that, despite the great diversity in these theories about art, they all formulate a common problem, and she argues that an adequate response to this problem must be based on account of the practical foundations within the recipient's own experience for a changed consciousness.
