Using a broad definition of the Durkheimian tradition, this book
offers the first systematic attempt to explore the Durkheimians'
engagement with art. It focuses on both Durkheim and his
contemporaries as well as later thinkers influenced by his work.
The first five chapters consider Durkheim's own exploration of art;
the remaining six look at other Durkheimian thinkers, including
Marcel Mauss, Henri Hubert, Maurice Halbwachs, Claude Levi-Strauss,
Michel Leiris, and Georges Bataille. The contributors-scholars from
a range of theoretical orientations and disciplinary
perspectives-are known for having already produced significant
contributions to the study of Durkheim. This book will interest not
only scholars of Durkheim and his tradition but also those
concerned with aesthetic theory and the sociology and history of
art.
