Transgressions by Anthony Julius
Anthony Julius shows how the modern period has been characterized by three kinds of transgressive art: an art that perverts established art rules; an art that defiles the beliefs and sentiments of its audience; and an art that challenges and disobeys the rules of the state.
'Anthony Julius's Transgressions is an invaluable study of the art of crossing boundaries, at once informative, combative and judiciousIt will provoke argument and disagreement, and something rarer and more valuable than either: thought' - Salman Rushdie
Anthony Julius, the eminent lawyer, writer and lecturer, has been described as a partisan with fierce integrity, a brilliant legal mind, a considerable critic, and a worldly philosopher who relishes disturbing the consensus. His previous books, T.S. Eliot: Anti-Semitism and Literary Form and Idolizing Pictures, were published to great acclaim and controversy.
