Reviews
A fresh turn with the thoughts and methods of Heidegger, Pascal, Barthes, Lacan, and Merleau-Ponty . . . . Tightly focused and yet broadly significant, The Rhetoric of Perspective represents a bold act of historiographic experimentation'. . . . Admirably, the book enacts some of the very traits of its subject -- moderation, modesty, and restraint-about specific images that in turn generate a persuasive clarity about greater ideas. Grootenboer advances, in a sterling exposition, the worthy project of understanding the genre of still life. . . . A book respectable in every detail. -- John Hagood Art Libraries Society of North America (06/01/2006)
