How does a song surprise or seduce us? Why do we bristle when a friend belittles a book we love, or fall into a funk when a favored TV series comes to an end?

The result is sure to be as widely read as Felski\u2019s book, The Limits of Critique.<\/p>\n<p>Wresting the language of affinity away from accusations of sticky sentiment and manipulative marketing, Felski argues that \u201cbeing hooked\u201d is as fundamental to the appreciation of high art as to the enjoyment of popular culture. Hooked zeroes in on three attachment devices that connect audiences to works of art: identification, attunement, and interpretation. Drawing on examples from literature, film, music, and painting\u2014from Joni Mitchell to Matisse, from Thomas Bernhard to Thelma and Louise\u2014Felski brings the language of attachment into the academy. Hooked returns us to the fundamentals of aesthetic experience, showing that the social meanings of artworks are generated not just by critics, but also by the responses of captivated audiences.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"appip-block-wrapper\">\n<div class=\"appip-block-wrapper block-there\">\n<div class=\"amazon-element-wrapper amazon-template--elements-default\">\n<div class=\"amazon-element-title\">\n<h4 class=\"appip-title\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B09B2HFY8S?tag=bookcycling-20&amp;linkCode=ogi&amp;th=1&amp;psc=1\" target=\"amazonwin\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Murder on Prescott Mountain (A Tennessee Cold Case Story Book 1)<\/a> (affiliate link)<\/h4>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"amazon-element-lg-image\">\n<div class=\"amazon-image-wrapper\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B09B2HFY8S?tag=bookcycling-20&amp;linkCode=ogi&amp;th=1&amp;psc=1\" target=\"amazonwin\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"amazon-image amazon-image-large\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/I\/51z5QrfGlBL._SL500_.jpg?w=640&amp;ssl=1\" alt=\"Buy Now\" width=\"140\" height=\"221\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"amazon-element-Author\"><strong>Author: Diaz, Lena<\/strong><\/div>\n<div><strong>Regularly $3.99, Today $1.99<\/strong><\/div>\n<div><strong>Mystery Romance<\/strong><\/div>\n<div>\n<p>Could the mystery that\u2019s haunted him for years<\/p>\n<p>Be the break her latest case needs?<\/p>\n<p>Former soldier Grayson Prescott started his cold case firm to bring murderers to justice.
