Bourdieu develops a highly original approach to the study of literary and artistic works, addressing many of the key issues that have preoccupied literary, art and cultural criticism in the late twentieth century: aesthetic value and judgement, the social contexts of cultural practice, the role of intellectuals and artists, and the structures of literary and artistic authority.  \u003cp\u003eBourdieu elaborates a theory of the cultural field which situates artistic works within the social conditions of their production, circulation and consumption. He examines the individuals in institutions involved in making products: not only the writers and artists, but also the publishers, critics, dealers, galleries and academies. He analyses the structure of the cultural field itself, as well as its position within the broader social structures of power.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe essays gathered together in this volume examine a variety of substantive topics, including Flaubert's point of view, Manet's aesthetic revolution, the historical creation of the pure gaze, and the relationship between art and power. \u003ci\u003eThe Field of Cultural Production\u003c\/i\u003e will be of interest to students and scholars from a wide range of disciplines: sociology and social theory, literature, art and cultural studies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003ePreface. \u003cp\u003eEditor's Introduction: Pierre Bourdieu on Art, Literature and Culture.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart I: The Field of Cultural Production.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.
