Warburg envisioned an art history that engaged with anthropology, psychoanalysis, and philosophy in order to understand the \"life\" of images. Drawing on a wide range of Warburg's unpublished letters and diaries, Didi-Huberman demonstrates unequivocally the complexity and importance of Warburg's ideas and the ways in which his legacy was both distorted and diffused as art history became a \"humanistic\" discipline. \u003ci\u003eThe Surviving Image\u003c\/i\u003e takes Warburg as its main subject but also addresses broader questions regarding art historians' conceptions of time, memory, and symbols and the relationship between art and the rational and irrational forces of the psyche.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFaithfully and thoughtfully translated by Harvey Mendelsohn, this first English-language edition of Didi-Huberman's masterful study of Warburg is a stirring and significant treatise on the philosophical nature of art history.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGeorges Didi-Huberman is on the faculty of the École des hautes études en sciences sociales in Paris.
