This book addresses the controversial history of an aesthetic - Realism - whose central purpose is the negotiation of social, political, and material realities, examining the ways in which it engages capital, social decorum and manners, the law and its intrinsic politicisation, the emergence of modern science as a determining factor concerning truth, and the corruptions of the aesthetic under the force of the politics of identity in the contemporary sphere.
