Until now, however, the global impact of his work has been underappreciated. \u003ci\u003eGlobal Culture after Gombrich\u003c\/i\u003e presents essays on the scholar and his body of work by historians of art and culture--themselves students of Gombrich or associated with his scholarly home, the Warburg Institute--from Asia, North America, and Europe. Contributors include Carlo Ginzburg, Peter Burke, John Onians, Nicolas Penny, Cao Yiqiang, and more. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Subjects range from picture-making's place in human evolution to the visual marginalia of the Renaissance and from nineteenth-century modernism to the implications of the latest neuroscience for cultural history. Ranging from theoretical broadsides to intricate reflections, other chapters explore fundamental issues like the notion of connoisseurship, the fate of the idea of culture, and the cultural specificity of modernism. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e In showing how Gombrich initiated inquiries that have spread in numerous global directions, this book makes a vital contribution to contemporary debates around the languages of art history and showcases the range of approaches and methods by which art history is--and has yet to be--written. \u003cbr\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCao Yiqiang\u003c\/b\u003e is professor of art history and founding director of the School of Arts and Humanities at the China Academy of Art in Hangzhou. \u003cb\u003eJohn Onians\u003c\/b\u003e is professor emeritus of world art at the University of East Anglia, UK.
