A thoroughly updated version of the classic, bestselling first edition, it synthesizes theoretical models of art sociology and covers empirical research as well as providing stimulating exemplars of sociological work on the the fine and popular arts. Case studies focus on a range of art forms, including children's books, musicals, popular music, film, romance novels, visual arts, and classical music. These studies combined with the book's considerable theoretical breadth and insight, explore how art is created, distributed, received, and consumed. The book also discusses newly emerging questions on the art itself, including issues of materiality, embodiment, and the social construction of art and aesthetics" |
