The Death of Art evaluates the philosopher Theodor W. Adorno's
ideas on music, visual arts, and literature and their relevance to
today's mass culture. Adorno drew concepts and inspiration from
fields such as history, historiography, sociology, musicology,
anthropology, philosophy, and psychology, which he used in his
assessments of art. His varied perspectives resulted in writings
that offer shocking glimpses into larger cultural issues. By
insisting on opposition and employing an expressionistic writing
style, Adorno invited readers to question his authority and
formulate their own views. In this work, author B.R. Sharma uses
similar tactics to isolate, revisit, and criticize some of Adorno's
key philosophies. The result is a comprehensive and clear overview
of Adorno's cultural theories that unearths trends pointing to the
eventual death of art.
