Budget: $10 – $30 USD

What are his contributions to the history of critical theory in direct relationship to the three other authors you choose?

In the course of your answer explore terms such as “culture.” “criticism,” and “anarchy” to determine if they are expressed and manifested (however differently) in the other authors you choose. If so, what does that tell you?
