The first comprehensive assessment of Degas's legacy to be published in over two decades,
Perspectives on Degas unites a team of international scholars to analyze Degas's work,
artistic practice, and unique methods of pictorial problem-solving. Established scholars
and curators show how recent trends in art historical thinking can stimulate innovative
interpretations of Degas's paintings, prints, sculptures, and drawings and reveal
new ideas about his place in the art historical narrative of the nineteenth-century
avant-garde. Questions posed by contributors include: what interpretive approaches
are open to a new generation of art historians in the wake of a vast body of existing
scholarship on nineteenth-century art? In what ways can feminist analyses of Degas's
works continue to yield new results? Which of Degas's works have received less attention
in critical literature to date and what does study of them reveal?0As the centenary
of Degas's death approaches, this book offers a timely re-evaluation of the critical
literature that has developed in response to Degas's work and identifies ways in which
the further study of this artist's multi-facetted output can deepen our understanding
of the wider scientific, literary, and artistic ideas that circulated in France during
the latter decades of the nineteenth century
