The first comprehensive assessment of Degas's legacy to be
published in over two decades, Perspectives on Degas unites a team
of international scholars to analyze Degas's work, artistic
practice, and unique methods of pictorial problem-solving.
Established scholars and curators show how recent trends in art
historical thinking can stimulate innovative interpretations of
Degas's paintings, prints, sculptures, and drawings and reveal new
ideas about his place in the art historical narrative of the
nineteenth-century avant-garde. Questions posed by contributors
include: what interpretive approaches are open to a new generation
of art historians in the wake of a vast body of existing
scholarship on nineteenth-century art? In what ways can feminist
analyses of Degas's works continue to yield new results? Which of
Degas's works have received less attention in critical literature
to date and what does study of them reveal? As the centenary of
Degas's death approaches, this book offers a timely re-evaluation
of the critical literature that has developed in response to
Degas's work and identifies ways in which the further study of this
artist's multi-facetted output can deepen our understanding of the
wider scientific, literary, and artistic ideas that circulated in
France during the latter decades of the nineteenth century.
