The Scandal of Pleasure: Art in an Age of Fundamentalism
Wendy Steiner
Surveys a wide range of cultural controversies, from the Mapplethorpe affair to Salman Rushdie's death sentence. This book seeks to show that the fear and outrage these events inspired were the result of dangerous misunderstandings about the relationship between art and life.
