Description: Reflecting on the rich, nonlinear genealogy of baroque expression, Neobaroque in the Americas envisions the baroque as an anti-proprietary expression that brings together seemingly disparate writers and artists and contributes to the new studies in global modernity.

Review Quotes:

With Neobaroque in the Americas, Monika Kaup presents an insightful and exciting addition to the new and expanding field of neobaroque studies. Kaup's scholarship is impressive, and what she has to say about her subject matter is original and offers a unique understanding of the continued presence of baroque aesthetics.

--Angela Ndalianis, University of Melbourne, author of Neo-Baroque Aesthetics and Contemporary Entertainment
