In this essential new addition to James Elkins’s series \u003cem\u003eTheories of Modernism and Postmodernism in the Visual Arts\u003c\/em\u003e, Richard Shiff embraces doubt as a critical tool and asks how particular histories of art have come to be. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eShiff’s turn to doubt is not a retreat to relativism, but rather an insistence on clear thinking about art. In particular, Shiff takes issue with the style of self-referential art writing seemingly 'licensed' by Roland Barthes.
