As Naomi Schor explains in her highly influential book, we do-but it has not always been so. The interest in detail--in art, in literature, and as an aesthetic category--is the product of the decline of classicism and the rise of realism. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBut the story of the detail is as political as it is aesthetic. Secularization, the disciplining of society, the rise of consumerism, the invention of the quotidian, have all brought detail to the fore. In this classic work of aesthetic and feminist theory, now available in a new paperback edition, Schor provides ways of thinking about details and ornament in literature, art, and architecture, and uncovering the unspoken but powerful ideologies that attached gender to details. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWide-ranging and richly argued, \u003cem\u003eReading in Detail\u003c\/em\u003epresents ideas about reading (and viewing) that will enhance the study of literature and the arts.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Naomi Schor\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0415979455\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780415979450\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/26\/2006\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 280\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.82lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.06h x 6.01w x 0.57d","brand":"Naomi Schor","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43919748202751,"sku":"9780415979450","price":48.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_d23de6ce-616b-4181-9ffd-98432eb721bf.jpg?v=1680811681","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/reading-in-detail-naomi-schor-9780415979450","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
