Libro que se ha leído y que no tiene un aspecto nuevo, pero que está en un estado excelente. No hay desperfectos visibles en la tapa y se incluye sobrecubierta, si procede, para las tapas duras. Todas las páginas están en perfecto estado, sin arrugas ni roturas y no falta ninguna. El texto no está subrayado ni resaltado de forma alguna, y no hay anotaciones en los márgenes. Puede presentar marcas de identificación mínimas en la contraportada o las guardas. Muy poco usado.

"Art history, Didi-Huberman argues, has had to 'kill' the symptomatic image, deny its violence and its 'dissembling,' in order to preserve its true object, art. Confronting Images is arguably the most important book-length analysis of the conceptual foundations of the discipline, and critique of the discipline, in any language." --Christopher Wood,Yale University, &"Art history, Didi-Huberman argues, has had to 'kill&' the symptomatic image, deny its violence and its 'dissembling,&' in order to preserve its true object, art. Confronting Images is arguably the most important book-length analysis of the conceptual foundations of the discipline, and critique of the discipline, in any language.&" &-Christopher Wood, Yale University, "I cannot think of any more important book in the recent history of art.

Synopsis
When the French edition of Confronting Images appeared in 1990, it won immediate acclaim because of its far-reaching arguments about the structure of images and the histories ascribed to them by scholars and critics working in the tradition of Vasari and Panofsky. According to Didi-Huberman, visual representation has an "underside" in which seemingly intelligible forms lose their clarity and defy rational understanding. Art historians, he goes on to contend, have failed to engage this underside, where images harbor limits and contradictions, because their discipline is based upon the assumption that visual representation is made up of legible signs and lends itself to rational scholarly cognition epitomized in the "science of iconology." To escape from this cul-de-sac, Didi-Huberman suggests that art historians look to Freud's concept of the "dreamwork," not for a code of interpretation, but rather to begin to think of representation as a mobile process that often involves substitution and contradiction. Confronting Images also offers brilliant, historically grounded readings of images ranging from the Shroud of Turin to Vermeer's Lacemaker., When the French edition of Confronting Images appeared in 1990, it won immediate acclaim because of its far-reaching arguments about the structure of images and the histories ascribed to them by scholars and critics working in the tradition of Vasari and Panofsky.

- a***h (69)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Mes pasadoCompra verificadaBook arrived as described, packed inside a cardboard envelope which I like because it protects the corners from damage in transit. Great price and arrived ahead of the estimated delivery date. I value book sellers who package this way to ensure the books arrive safely, will bookmark you guys for future book purchases.
- c***c (226)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Últimos 6 mesesCompra verificadaMy book arrived in good condition. Packaging was a rigid cardboard mailer, and it protected my book well. It was shipped in a reasonable amount of time, but I was still prompted to reach out to inquire further about it. Seller communication was very good, answering me within 24-hours. I was told shipping can take 9-15 days to happen... it arrived within 10 days after purchase. I would purchase from this seller again. Two thumbs up!
