Kitsch, an aesthetic slur of the 19th and the 20th century, is increasingly considered a positive term and at the heart of today's society. Eleven distinguished authors from philosophy, cultural studies and the arts discuss a wide range of topics including beauty, fashion, kitsch in the context of mourning, bio-art, visual arts, architecture and political kitsch. In addition, the editors provide a concise theoretical introduction to the volume and the subject. The role of kitsch in contemporary culture and society is innovatively explored and the volume aims not to condemn but to accept and understand why kitsch has become acceptable today.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Max Ryyn舅en\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3031166310\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783031166310\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Palgrave MacMillan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/27\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 270\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.08lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.27h x 5.83w x 0.69d","brand":"Max Ryyn舅en","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44123059945727,"sku":"9783031166310","price":159.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_a2c90120-5508-4981-b8eb-808c306eab1f.jpg?v=1687428687","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-changing-meaning-of-kitsch-max-ryynnen-9783031166310","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
