Publisher's Synopsis

How did beauty become, and why does it largely remain, what Emory Elliot dubbed `the forbidden subjectÔÇÖ? This book reviews the devastating impacts modernist avant-garde, Marxism, some feminisms and postmodernism have enacted ÔÇô through paranoia, blame, cynicism ÔÇô on beauty, hope and desire.
