The Art of Civilization: A Bourgeois History 



By Didier Maleuvre

Published by Palgrave Macmillan in 2016-Epub 



Description

This book tells the story of how art since ancient Greece is inextricably linked to a particular place and social group: the city and its homegrown species, the bourgeois.

As such it bears the imprint of the workshop and the independent mentality of producers. Breaking with a misty-eyed romantic view of art, The Art of Civilization shows how artistic expression in Western societies has helped the rise of a demystified and pragmatic mindset.
