Book Sociologie de l art et analyse des r  seaux sociaux

Download or read book Sociologie de l art et analyse des r seaux sociaux written by and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ce numéro consacré à l'art et aux réseaux personnels entend combler l'absence d'articulation entre la sociologie de l'art et la sociologie des réseaux. En effet, les recherches dans le champ de la sociologie de l'art attribuent une place centrale aux interactions et relations entre les différents acteurs et si elles emploient souvent le terme de réseau, celui-ci reste métaphorique. Les articles de ce numéro donnent un aperçu du potentiel que représentent des travaux empiriques conduits à l'articulation de la sociologie de l'art et de la sociologie des réseaux personnels.

Book Sociology of the Arts in Action

Download or read book Sociology of the Arts in Action written by Arturo Rodríguez Morató and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-01-31 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited collection carries out an extensive coverage of the sociology of arts’ most characteristic thematic areas (production, creation, the artwork, and reception) across an important range of artistic fields, from the most traditional to the more unusual. It makes an argument for the theoretical creativity and empirical expansion that characterizes the study of contemporary sociology of the arts. Such creativity is present in the increasingly predominant approach to a sociology of the arts in action, in all areas of inquiry within the discipline. The range of theoretical paradigms evoked is rich, analysing several of the most important theoretical frameworks currently handled in the discipline (Bourdieu, Becker, Peterson, ANT), and combining them with the works of many other influential contemporary specialists (De Nora, Hennion, Lamont, Menger and Born et al.). The book also establishes links to less known theoretical frameworks and some from different fields including economic sociology,microsociology, ethnomethodology, semiotics, and cultural history. The volume argues that Spanish-speaking scholars are now at the forefront of new developments in the field of the sociology of the arts, and is the first effort to gather research by these influential Spanish-language scholars in a single volume for an English-language audience.

Book The Cultural Sociology of Art and Music

Download or read book The Cultural Sociology of Art and Music written by Lisa McCormick and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-12-16 with total page 451 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited collection develops the Strong Program’s contribution to the sociological study of the arts and places it in conversation with other cultural perspectives in the field. Presenting some of the newest and most original research by both renowned figures and early career scholars, the volume marks a new stage in the development of the cultural sociology of art and music. The chapters in Part 1 set new agendas by reflecting on the field’s history, presenting theoretical innovations, and suggesting future directions for research. Part 2 explores aesthetic issues and challenges in the creation, experience, and interpretation of art and music. Part 3 focuses on the material environments and social settings where people engage with art and music. In Part 4, the contributors examine controversies about music and contestation over artistic matters, whether in the public sphere, in the American judicial system, or in an emerging academic discipline. The editor’s introduction and Ron Eyerman's afterword place the chapters in context and reflect on their collective contribution to meaning-centered sociology.

Book Les sciences humaines dans le centre de l   art

Download or read book Les sciences humaines dans le centre de l art written by CORDONNIER Sarah and published by Lavoisier. This book was released on 2012-09-24 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cet ouvrage propose de décrypter le rôle des sciences humaines dans l’art contemporain au fil de son développement et de son institutionnalisation en France. Cette approche communicationnelle s’intéresse aussi bien aux pratiques qu’aux discours, aux dispositifs (comme l’exposition) qu’aux représentations (en particulier des sciences). Comment observer les sciences humaines dans le champ artistique, alors que leur réception, leurs réappropriations, ne sont pas visibles de manière immédiate ? Comment rendre compte d’un usage collectif de ces savoirs et, donc, les situer dans des règles et normes partagées par les acteurs de l’art contemporain ? Comment repérer et analyser les manières différenciées d’y recourir dans ce cadre commun ? Par l’observation et l’examen détaillé des centres d’art et des expositions d’art contemporain, Les sciences humaines dans le centre d’art vise à éclairer la circulation sociale des savoirs et les manières de l’étudier.

Book Routledge International Handbook of the Sociology of Art and Culture

Download or read book Routledge International Handbook of the Sociology of Art and Culture written by Laurie Hanquinet and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-09-16 with total page 500 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Routledge Handbook of the Sociology of Arts and Culture offers a comprehensive overview of sociology of art and culture, focusing especially – though not exclusively – on the visual arts, literature, music, and digital culture. Extending, and critiquing, Bourdieu’s influential analysis of cultural capital, the distinguished international contributors explore the extent to which cultural omnivorousness has eclipsed highbrow culture, the role of age, gender and class on cultural practices, the character of aesthetic preferences, the contemporary significance of screen culture, and the restructuring of popular culture. The Handbook critiques modes of sociological determinism in which cultural engagement is seen as the simple product of the educated middle classes. The contributions explore the critique of Eurocentrism and the global and cosmopolitan dimensions of cultural life. The book focuses particularly on bringing cutting edge ‘relational’ research methodologies, both qualitative and quantitative, to bear on these debates. This handbook not only describes the field, but also proposes an agenda for its development which will command major international interest.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ce contenu est une compilation d'articles de l'encyclopedie libre Wikipedia. Pages: 31. Chapitres: Robert Escarpit, Pierre Bourdieu, Theodor W.

Extrait: Pierre Bourdieu (1930-2002) est un sociologue francais qui, a la fin de sa vie, devint, par son engagement public, l'un des acteurs principaux de la vie intellectuelle francaise. Sa pensee a exerce une influence considerable dans les sciences humaines et sociales, en particulier sur la sociologie francaise d'apres-guerre. Sociologie du devoilement, elle a fait l'objet de nombreuses critiques, qui lui reprochent en particulier une vision deterministe du social dont il se defendait. Son uvre sociologique est dominee par une analyse des mecanismes de reproduction des hierarchies sociales. Bourdieu insiste sur l'importance des facteurs culturels et symboliques dans cette reproduction et critique le primat donne aux facteurs economiques dans les conceptions marxistes. Il entend souligner que la capacite des agents en position de domination a imposer leurs productions culturelles et symboliques joue un role essentiel dans la reproduction des rapports sociaux de domination. Ce que Pierre Bourdieu nomme la violence symbolique, qu'il definit comme la capacite a faire meconnaitre l'arbitraire de ces productions symboliques, et donc a les faire admettre comme legitimes, est d'une importance majeure dans son analyse sociologique. Le monde social, dans les societes modernes, apparait a Pierre Bourdieu comme divise en ce qu'il nomme des champs. Il lui semble, en effet, que la differenciation des activites sociales a conduit a la constitution de sous-espaces sociaux, comme le champ artistique ou le...

Book Constructing a Sociology of the Arts

Download or read book Constructing a Sociology of the Arts written by Vera L. Zolberg and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1990-02-23 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At a time when a pile of bricks is displayed in a museum, when music is composed for performance underwater, and the boundaries between popular and fine art are fluid, conventional understandings of art are strained in describing what art is, what it includes or excludes, whether and how it should be evaluated, and what importance should be assigned the arts in society. In this book, Vera Zolberg examines diverse theoretical approaches to the study of the arts. Ranging over humanistic and social scientific views representing a variety of scholarly traditions, American and European, she then develops a sociological approach that evaluates the institutional, economic, and political influences on the creation of art, while also affirming the importance of the question of artistic quality. The author examines the arts in the social contexts in which they are created and appreciated, focusing on the ways in which people become artists, the institutions in which their careers develop, the supports and pressures they face, the publics they need to please, and the political forces with which they must contend. Particular subjects covered include the process by which works are created and "re-created" at different times, with changed meanings, and for new social uses; the role of the audience in the realization of artistic experiences; the social consequences of taste preferences; the reasons for change in artistic styles and for the coexistence of many art forms and styles.

Book Aesthetics and the Sociology of Art

Download or read book Aesthetics and the Sociology of Art written by Janet Wolff and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-04-29 with total page 121 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1983, Aesthetics and the Sociology of Art provides a lucid account of two divergent tendencies in the study of aesthetics. At the one extreme, traditional aestheticians have assumed that art and literature are wholly independent, following only the laws and inspirations of artists and artistic movements, and that the question of aesthetic value is accordingly unproblematic. At the other extreme, some sociologists have treated works of art as no more than manifestations of the socio-economic circumstances which produce them, arguing that aesthetic value is therefore entirely relative matter. Janet Wolff shows how both the extreme positions are untenable, and argues convincingly that we must accept that the conceptions and criteria of aesthetic value are socially constructed and inevitably ideological, while stopping short of the reductionist alternative which fails to recognise the irreducible questions of pleasure and of aesthetic discourse. This book provides an invaluably clear guide both to old debates and to otherwise obscure modern controversies, which will be welcomed both by students and scholars in the sociology of art, in aesthetics, in art history, and in literary criticism.

Book Handbook of the Economics of Art and Culture

Download or read book Handbook of the Economics of Art and Culture written by Victor A. Ginsburgh and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2006-09-13 with total page 1401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the last 30 or 40 years a substantial literature has grown up in which the tools of economic theory and analysis have been applied to problems in the arts and culture. Economists who have surveyed the field generally locate the origins of contemporary cultural economics as being in 1966, the year of publication of the first major work in modern times dedicated specifically to the economics of the arts. It was a book by Baumol and Bowen which showed that economic analysis could illuminate the supply of and demand for artistic services, the contribution of the arts sector to the economy, and the role of public policy. Following the appearance of the Baumol and Bowen work, interest in the economics of the arts grew steadily, embracing areas such as demand for the arts, the economic functions of artists, the role of the nonprofit sector, and other areas. Cultural economics also expanded to include the cultural or entertainment industries (the media, movies, the publishing industry, popular music), as well as heritage and museum management, property right questions (in particular copyright) and the role of new communication technologies such as the internet. The field is therefore located at the crossroads of several disciplines: economics and management, but also art history, art philosophy, sociology and law. The Handbook is placed firmly in economics, but it also builds bridges across these various disciplines and will thus be of interest to researchers in all these different fields, as well as to those who are engaged in cultural policy issues and the role of culture in the development of our societies. *Presents an overview of the history of art markets *Addresses the value of art and consumer behavior toward acquiring art *Examines the effect of art on economies of developed and developing countries around the world
