商品簡介
The 31 essays of this handbook--its scope extends beyond a mere collection--derive from a series of workshops organized by an international group organized by Matthew Rampley (U. of Birmingham, the UK) and others in Europe. The central themes concern the history of the study of art, the thought and influence of leading early art historians, and particularly the continuing tendency for art history to maintain a focus within the boundaries of a single nation, or related national groups, on the one hand, and the shape of the practice of art history within these individual countries and cultures, on the other. The first section is devoted to more general topics, including the impact of digitization on museums, sociology and art, economics and art history, and the weight of French and German thought on the field.
