Today it is a term most often used in advertising trendy commodities, or, more generally, in promoting urban lifestyles in our postmodern age. But what is the history of the term “cool?" When has coolness come to be associated with certain modes of contemporary self-fashioning? On what grounds do certain nations claim ..."

(Terra Foundation Essays)

Paperback, 216 Pages, Published 2016 by Terra Foundation For American Art
ISBN-13: 978-0-932171-57-3, ISBN: 0-932171-57-5

"The history of American art is a history of objects, but it is also a history of ideas about how we create and consume these objects. As Picturing convincingly shows, the critical tradition in American art has given rise to profound thinking about the nature and capacity of images and formed responses to some of most pressing problems of picturing: What is an image, and why make one? What do images do?             The first volume in a ..."

"Repetition is constitutive of human life. Both the species and the individual develop through repetition. Unlike simple recall, repetition is permeated by the past and the present and is oriented toward the future. Repetition of central actions and events plays an important role in the lives of individuals and the life of society. It helps to create meaning and memory. Because repetition is a central aspect of human life, it plays a rol ..."

The Power and Politics of the Aesthetic in American Culture
(Publikationen Der Bayerischen Amerika-akademie / Publications of the Bavarian American Academy)
by Ulla Haselstein, Klaus Benesch
Hardcover, 127 Pages, Published 2007 by Universitätsverlag Winter
ISBN-13: 978-3-8253-5336-0, ISBN: 3-8253-5336-2

"While the ubiquity of the aesthetic in contemporary society can hardly be denied, the reasons for the staggering aestheticizing of private and social practices are manifold and have recently been subject to controversial debates within the humanities. Arguably, postmodern consumer culture, new hedonistic lifestyles, or the spectacularization of the political sphere are just another form of Americanization, yet the specific 'American' di ..."

As a dominant cultural practice, iconography embraces the politics as well as the poetics of visual representation within their specific historical and cultural conditions. In its contemporary significance the question of iconography moreover reaches beyond disciplinary boundaries of conventional definitions and interpretations of the relation between words a ..."

Hardcover, 294 Pages, Published 2010 by Universitätsverlag Winter
ISBN-13: 978-3-8253-5706-1, ISBN: 3-8253-5706-6

"Throughout the last decade, observers of American culture have drawn attention to an emerging transformation: an apparent shift from postmodern irony and play to a revalorization of the real and authentic. This "turn" in cultural values has been linked to general conservative tendencies and the after-effects of September 11 as well as a lingering sense of crisis following post- Cold War triumphalism. 'The Pathos of Authenticity' investi ..."

Hardcover, 384 Pages, Published 2006 by Universitätsverlag Winter
ISBN-13: 978-3-8253-5197-7, ISBN: 3-8253-5197-1

"The debate over the function of aesthetics can be traced back to the New Criticism and its aftermath. After its theoretical axioms and criteria of judgement had been debunked as ideologically charged, two factions emerged. A number of critics defended the value of aesthetic complexity, i.e. of ambiguity, irony and negativity, and refused to accept the arguments of ideology critique attacking the concept of aesthetic autonomy. Revisionis ..."
