'Arnold Hausers Social History of Art
- a very important and under-appreciated text.' -
Whitney Davis, John Evans Professor of Art History,
Northwestern University
'It is no exaggeration to say that more than any other work
Hauser's four volumes inspired my interest in art
history.' - Alan Wallach, Ralph H Wark Professor of
Art History, College of William and Mary
'This work has great value in a contemporary context. I
look forward to seeing what Jonathan has done with the
introduction, but I cannot think of anyone better suited to the
task.' - Johanna Drucker, Professor of Art History,
Yale University
Hausers extraordinary energy and subtlety wave a brilliant
synthesis of the interaction between the aesthetic and societal,
giving us at one and the same time a wealth of artistic detail and
a consistent and fully elaborated exposition of the social
process. - Albert Boime, UCLA, author of The Social
History of Modern Art, 1750-1989
