Postmodernism

At a time when the threads of culture and thought are intertwined in a complex style, Christopher Patler comes in his book in the series "Literary Views" to put us in front of the mirror of postmodern ideas, exploring its profound impact on various areas of life from literature to visual arts, and from films to architecture and music. The book dives in the depths of postmodern theory to reveal the nature of this complex intellectual and cultural trend, by discussing the works of artists, intellectuals and critics who form a "coexist political party" such as Cindy Sherman, Salman Rushdie, Jack Derrida and others. In a enjoyable way and a theoretical framework impressive, Patler provides an accurate examination of the "postmodern state", moving from the politicization of the culture of museums to discussions of political righteousness, offering a bold invitation to absorb and understand this complex phenomenon.
