Postmodernism has been a buzzword in contemporary society for the last decade. But how can it be defined? In this Very Short Introduction Christopher Butler challenges and explores the key ideas of postmodernists, and their engagement with theory, literature, the visual arts, film, architecture, and music. He treats artists, intellectuals, critics, and social scientists 'as if they were all members of a loosely constituted and quarrelsome political party' - a party which includes such members as Cindy Sherman, Salman Rushdie, Jacques Derrida, Walter Abish, and Richard Rorty - creating a vastly entertaining framework in which to unravel the mysteries of the 'postmodern condition', from the politicizing of museum culture to the cult of the politically correct.

圖書標籤: postmodernism VSI 文化研究 後現代主義 哲學 philosophy 文學理論 閑玩
欣賞作者對後現代嚴厲的批判
評分偏文化輕哲學和政治,但對後現代主義的內在矛盾直言不諱
評分把復雜的東西說簡單纔是真本事
評分aVSI係列裏最差的一本,作者私貨太多,缺乏清晰的學科主綫脈絡,自身的觀點所占比重幾乎超過學科自身的介紹。aVSI係列的意義在於學科普及,而不是看作者發牢騷。作者對後現代主義毫不掩飾的敵意已經嚴重地影響到他對這個學科的認知。如果對後現代主義感興趣更推薦隔壁Belsey的post structuralism: a very short introduction
