Synopsis

This book explores the diverse and far-reaching impact of the concept of representation in modern life, from the realms of politics and law to the deeply personal sphere of identity and relationships. The author delves into the historical evolution of representation, tracing its roots in ancient Greece and exploring its transformation through the ages. Drawing on a vast array of examples, from iconic works of art to poignant personal narratives, the book illuminates the ways in which representation shapes our understanding of ourselves, others, and the world around us. Ultimately, the author argues that representation is not merely a passive reflection of reality but an active force that actively constructs and perpetuates social norms, values, and power structures. This book will be an invaluable resource for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of this multifaceted concept and its profound implications for our collective and individual lives.

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
