(P/B) THE FRAME AND THE MIRROR

Παρουσίαση

If the postmodern is a collage - as some critics have suggested - or if collage is itself a kernel of the postmodern, what does this mean for our way of understanding the world? The Frame and the Mirror uses this question to probe the distinctive question of the postmodern situation and the philosophical problem of representation. (From the publisher)
