Description and Table of Contents

Description

Traces the pedigrees of postmodernism in art, theory and history, and takes us on a roller-coaster ride through structuralism, semiotics and deconstruction in the company of postmodern icons such as Foucault, Levi-Strauss, Barthes, Derrida, Lacan and Lyotard. It is a crucial guide for anyone fascination or exasperated by postmodernism.
