She addresses the integral relationship of art with life, the artist as creator, reception and the audience, and context\/intertextuality. This provides both a new conceptual vocabulary for those engaged in visual culture — ideas such as answerability, unfinalizability, heteroglossia, chronotope, and the carnivalesque (defined in the glossary) — and a new, practical approach to historical analysis of generic breakdown and narrative re-emergence in contemporary art.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHaynes uses Bakhtinian concepts to interpret a range of art from religious icons to post-Impressionist painters and Russian modernists to demonstrate how the application of his thought to visual culture can generate significant new insights.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eRehabilitating some of Bakhtin's neglected ideas and reframing him as a philosopher of aesthetics, \u003cem\u003eBakhtin Reframed\u003c\/em\u003e will be essential reading for the huge community of Bakhtin scholars as well as students and practitioners of visual culture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Bloomsbury Publishing PTY Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47595765301484,"sku":"9781780765129","price":97.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/9781780765129-bakhtin-reframed.jpg?v=1777906153","url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/products\/bakhtin-reframed-by-deborah-j-haynes-9781780765129","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
