Samenvatting Bibliografie : p. 265-274. - Met reg. The author concentrates on the way individuals form opinions about culture through the mediation of critics. He shows that it is the extent to which critics shape the reception of an art form that determines its place in the cultural hierarchy. Those who patronize `lowbrow' art do not heed critical opinions nearly as much as do those who patronize `highbrow' art. A case study is made of the Edinburgh Fringe, a diverse art festival. |
