With references to the theoretical framework of Michel Foucault and
Pierre Bourdieu, this book offers a critical investigation into
such epic issues as the end of art and the inherent laws of
literature’s evolution, while conflating the two into one major
argumentation. The book proceeds from Hegel's claim of "the end of
art" to tackle the universal yet essential problem of literature:
its legitimacy in a sociological sense. It invests Bourdieu’s
sociological terms -- power, capital, habitus, field, etc. into the
study of literature and art while taking on other theoretical
enquiries, particularly the Marxist exploration into ideology, as
well as aspects of economics and communication studies. This book
will be a valuable resource for students and scholars of the
sociology of literature, cultural studies, and those with specific
interests in Chinese literature, literary and art theory.
