Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Responses to the arguments of E. D. Hirsch, Jr., in Cultural Literacy: What Every American Needs to Know are at the core of this thought-provoking volume. The thirteen contributors were asked to reflect on how various contexts may reveal, rather than obscure, the character of a work of art. The result is a lively and wide ranging, with each chapter offering a different perspective on one of the most discussed topics in education today. Originally published as a special issue of the Journal of Aesthetic Education, the book includes selection by experts in the visual arts, literature, music, dance, and theater.
