In this lively book, major cultural critic Elisabeth Bronfen addresses key topics such as portraiture, the body, war, sovereignty, political power, life, and death. Tracking the transformations that occur as aesthetic figurations travel from one historical moment or artistic medium to another, she discusses prominent figures such as Shakespeare, Degas, and Picasso, Hollywood's classical film noir, and influential TV series such as The Wire and House of Cards. The result is an influential text that rethinks creativity and the cultural imaginary.
