{"product_id":"17994243","title":"Dan Fox | PRETENTIOUSNESS","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWHAT IS PRETENTIOUSNESS\u003c\/b\u003e? Why do we despise it? And more controversially: why is it vital to a thriving culture? In this brilliant, passionate essay, Dan Fox argues that it has always been an essential mechanism of the arts, from the most wildly successful pop music and fashion through to the most recondite avenues of literature and the visual arts. Pretentiousness: Why it Matters unpacks the uses and abuses of the term, tracing its connections to theatre, politics and class. From method acting to vogueing balls in Harlem, from Brian Eno to normcore, Fox draws on a wide range of references in advocating critical imagination and open-mindedness over knee-jerk accusations of elitism or simple fear of the new and the different. Drawing on his own experiences growing up and working at the more radical edges of the arts, this book is a timely defence of pretentiousness as a necessity for innovation and diversity in our culture.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"padding: 0 20px 0 20px; border: thin solid #000000;\"\u003e\u003cp style=\"font-size: smaller;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eBindning:\u003c\/b\u003e Pocket. 8:o (114x197 mm) \u003cb\u003eÅr:\u003c\/b\u003e 2024. \u003cb\u003eOmfång:\u003c\/b\u003e 176 sidor ; 20 cm \u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781804270936. \u003cb\u003eSpråk:\u003c\/b\u003e Engelska\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHitta fler liknande böcker i dessa kategorier:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbutton class=\"product-form__submit button button--secondary\" onclick=\"window.location.href='https:\/\/bok.hstrom.se\/pages\/skonlitteratur'\"\u003eSkönlitteratur\u003c\/button\u003e \u003cbutton class=\"product-form__submit button button--secondary\" onclick=\"window.location.href='\/search?q=tag:Skönlitteratur%2BEssäer'\"\u003eEssäer\u003c\/button\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHitta fler liknande böcker med dessa ämnesord:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbutton class=\"product-form__submit button button--secondary\" onclick=\"window.location.href='\/search?q=tag:pretentiösitet'\"\u003epretentiösitet\u003c\/button\u003e \u003cbutton class=\"product-form__submit button button--secondary\" onclick=\"window.location.href='\/search?q=tag:kultur'\"\u003ekultur\u003c\/button\u003e \u003cbutton class=\"product-form__submit button button--secondary\" onclick=\"window.location.href='\/search?q=tag:innovation'\"\u003einnovation\u003c\/button\u003e \u003cbutton class=\"product-form__submit button button--secondary\" onclick=\"window.location.href='\/search?q=tag:mångfald'\"\u003emångfald\u003c\/button\u003e \u003cbutton class=\"product-form__submit button button--full-width \" onclick=\"window.location.href='\/search?q=title:Fox%2BDan%2BPretentiousness'\"\u003eSök fler exemplar av denna bok\u003c\/button\u003e\u003cbutton class=\"product-form__submit button button--full-width \" onclick=\"window.location.href='\/search?q=title:Dan%2BFox'\"\u003eFler böcker av Dan Fox\u003c\/button\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"padding: 0 20px 0 20px; border: thin solid #000000;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size: smaller; font-weight:bold;\"\u003eAnvänd gärna länkarna nedan för att hitta liknande böcker.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size: smaller;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eFörfattare:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/search?q=title:Fox+Dan\"\u003eFox, Dan\u003c\/a\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTitel:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/search?q=title:Pretentiousness\"\u003ePretentiousness\u003c\/a\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFörlag:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/search?q=vendor:Faber+\u0026amp;+Faber\"\u003eFaber \u0026amp; Faber\u003c\/a\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eGenre:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/search?q=Ess%C3%A4er\"\u003eEssäer\u003c\/a\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eArtikelnr:\u003c\/b\u003e 17994243\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cp style=\"font-size: smaller;\"\u003eLäst denna bok och vill hjälpa oss att förstå..? \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/antikvariat.hstrom.se\/enkat\/17994243\u0026amp;entry.1763550384=Fox,%20Dan\u0026amp;entry.1968095487=Pretentiousness\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eDelta i vår enkät om denna bok, klicka...\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Faber \u0026 Faber","offers":[{"title":"Förlagsny bok \/ Pocket","offer_id":45568408420619,"sku":"17994243","price":298.0,"currency_code":"SEK","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0651\/8856\/1163\/files\/no_image_615229bf-b8d8-4091-b839-002e3ef861e2.jpg?v=1719846366","url":"https:\/\/bok.hstrom.se\/products\/17994243","provider":"bok.hstrom.se | Antikvariat \u0026 Bokhandel","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
