Description: |
The book covers some of the major responses to postmodernity by contemporary French thinkers. It covers many of the questions central to the postmodern debate, such as questions of history, representation, identity, ethics and community. |
Synopsis: |
Facing Postmodernity explains French cultural theory by grounding it in the politics of the issues facing France today such as: * the breaking of the city * racism * the crisis of culture * new citizenship. It discusses some of the major responses to postmodernity by contemporary French thinkers, both the very well known -Lyotard, Levinas, Derrida - and those who will be less familiar to a non-French audience. In doing so, it addresses the questions central to the postmodern debate whatever country it takes place in; questions of history, of representation, identity and community. |
