Sontag's Captions: Writing the Body from Riefenstahl to S&M

Original language description

In ?Sontag?s Captions: Writing the Body from Riefenstahl to S &amp; M,? Bonita Rhoads considers how Susan Sontag altered her aesthetic convictions in response to her evolving writer?s conscience and produced some of the most indelible commentaries of hergeneration. Her scathing critique of Leni Riefenstahl continues to set the standard of criticism of the Nazi-friendly director despite Sontag?s own little-acknowledged mitigation of her excoriating essay ?Fascinating Fascism? several years later. Rhoads?s essay establishes Sontag?s condemnation of Riefenstahl?s ?fascist aesthetics? as a turning point in her growth as a woman of letters, elucidating how that oft-cited critique reveals not only Sontag?s ideological transformation, but also her response to the sexual revolution just as it was shifting from the heady idealism of the 60s to the garish affectations and irreverent fads of the 70s.
