Description
The New Art History provides a comprehensive introduction to the fundamental changes which have occurred in both the institutions and practice of art history over the last thirty years. He distinguishes between these and earlier forms of “radical” or “critical” analysis, explores the influence of other disciplines and traditions on art history, and relates art historical ideas and values to social change.
