This book consists of essays on the Vienna School's impact on Central European art history, Walter Benjamin's move from transhistoricism to historical relativism, Jacob Burckhardt's legacy and its metamorphoses, two competing conceptions of the social history of art, and Ernst Gombrich's life long struggle against metaphysics. All share a common denominator: concern with the trajectories of art historical ideas and their ideological instrumentality. However, the author's aim in analysing the premises and intentions of art historical discourse is not to undermine the credibility of art history by reducing it to total epistemological relativism. The historiography of art historical theories and critical reflection on their ideological background is understood by the author as an auxiliary art historical subdiscipline
