This book traces two rival responses to this question, one prizing clarity and the other confusion, which have dominated political aesthetics since the late nineteenth century. Revisiting recurrences of the avant-garde experimentalism versus critical realism debates from the twentieth century, Geoffrey A. Baker highlights the often violent reductions at work in earlier debates. Instead of prizing one approach over the other, as many participants in those debates have done, Baker instead focuses instead on the manner in which the debate itself between these approaches continues to prove productive and enabling for politically engaged writers. This book thus offers a way beyond the simplistic polarity of realism vs. anti-realism in a study that is focused on influential strands of thought in England, France, and Germany and that covers well-known authors such as Zola, Nietzsche, Arnold, Mann, Brecht, Sartre, Adorno, Lukács, Beauvoir, Morrison, and Coetzee. 410 0$aPalgrave Studies in Modern European Literature,$x2634-6486 606 $aComparative literature 606 $aLiterature$xPhilosophy 606 $aEuropean literature 606 $aComparative Literature 606 $aLiterary Theory 606 $aEuropean Literature 615 0$aComparative literature. 615 0$aLiterature$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aEuropean literature. 615 14$aComparative Literature. 615 24$aLiterary Theory. 615 24$aEuropean Literature. 676 $a809 700 $aBaker$b Geoffrey$f1973-$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0850550 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910156335103321 996 $aThe Aesthetics of Clarity and Confusion$94345403 997 $aUNINA
