"alienation, through shock and novelty, become defences against the boredom and inauthenticity of modernity
[...] Newness (seeing afresh what one thought of as familiar, as though for the first time – the patient process of Romanticism) and novelty (deliberately disturbing the representation of reality in an attempt to ‘shock’ oneself into something that feels unfamiliar (familiarity)) are contrary concepts." p. 412f
