Description: Meaning and Expression: Toward a Sociology of Art, by Hanna Deinhard. Beacon Press, Boston, MA, 1970. First American Edition (translated from German). Small octavo, blue cloth spine over white embossed boards, 120 pages, dust jacket. From dj: “Every work of art is timeless…[or] an expression of its time.” For Dr. Deinhart, these two assertions and the connections between them form the simplest formulations of a basic problem for every discipline concerned with art.” A sociology of art begins by asking how works of art, created in a particular time and space, can have different meaning for different epochs and societies, and yet convey aspects of the age and society that produced it. As a basis for discussion, Dr. Deinhard has selected four important pictures, Coronation of the the Virgin by Quarton, and three paintings of the Massacre of the Innocent by Giotto, Bruegel and Rubens.” Condition: Good. Minor rubbing and slight edgewear to dust jacket. Some writing on first page.
