The Field of Cultural Production by Pierre Bourdieu

5.0

It changed the way I thought about literature, art, academia, forever. As well as how Flaubert's L'éducation sentimentale develops as a novel. Certainly the field of contemporary cultural production has changed so much as to make this book outdated. Yet maybe it's a landmark as to how things were before the digital media cultural production (and consumption) revolution. I recommend it for the hopelessly highbrow graduate student.
