Translated by Nancy Ann Roth ...

In this thought-provoking book Lambert Wiesing asks simply: What is luxury? Drawing on a fascinating range of examples, he argues that luxury is an aesthetic experience.

As such, luxury becomes a gesture of ... Read more

Phenomenology and Image Theory

by Lambert Wiesing ...

Translated by Nancy Ann Roth ...
