Culture and Consensus (Routledge Revivals) - England, Art and Politics Since 1940

Informationen zum Autor Robert Hewison Zusammenfassung Culture and Consensus , first published in 1995 and a revised edition in 1997, explores the history of the relationship between politics and the arts in Britain since 1940, and shows how the search for a secure sense of English identity has been reflected in official and unofficial attitudes to the arts, architecture, landscape and other emblems of national significance. Illustrating his argument with a series of detailed case histories, Robert Hewison analyses how Britain’s cultural life has reached its present enfeebled condition and suggests a way forward. This book will be of interest to students of art and cultural studies. Inhaltsverzeichnis List of Illustrations; Acknowledgements; Introduction; 1. Dis-United Kingdom: Britain in the 1990s 2.
