Παρουσίαση

It is safest to grasp the concept of the postmodern as an attempt to think the present historically in an age that has forgotten how to think historically in the first place. In that case, it either "expresses" some deeper irrepressible historical impulse (in however distorted a fashion) or effectively "represses" and diverts it, depending on the side of the ambiguity you happen to favor. Postmodernism, postmodern consciousness, may then amount to not much more than theorizing its own condition of possibility, which consists primarily in the sheer enumeration of changes and modifications. Modernism also thought compulsively about the New and tried to watch its coming into being (inventing for that purpose the registering and inscription devices akin to historical time-lapse photography), but the postmodern looks for breaks, for events rather than new worlds, for the telltale instant after which it is no longer the same; for the "When-it-all-changed," as Gibson puts it, or, better still, for shifts and irrevocable changes in the representation of things and of the way they change. The moderns were interested in what was likely to come of such changes and their general tendency: they thought about the thing itself, substantively, in Utopian or essential fashion. Postmodernism is more formal in that sense, and more "distracted," as Benjamin might put it; it only clocks the variations themselves, and knows only too well that the contents are just more images. In modernism, as I will try to show later on, some residual zones of "nature" or "being," of the old, the older, the archaic, still subsist; culture can still do something to that nature and work at transforming that "referent." Postmodernism is what you have when the modernization process is complete and nature is gone for good. [...] (From the publisher)

"For anybody hoping to understand not just the cultural but the political and social implications of postmodernism... Jameson's book is a fundamental, nonpareil text". (Gilbert Adair, Sunday Times)

"The scope and profundity of Postmodernism, covering theory, architecture, film, video and economics, is truly staggering. This is brilliant stuff..." (Ziauddin Sardar, The Independent)

"Fredric Jameson is America's leading Marxist critic, a prodigiously energetic thinker whose writings sweep magisterially from Sophocles to science fiction... Postmodernism is an intellectual blockbuster... a timely riposte to fashionable leftist pessimism as much as it is an intellectual feast". (Terry Eagleton, Irish Times)

"Oscillating between the intoxication of the latest postmodern theories and the sobriety of the Marxist tradition, Jameson's book confirms my belief that the most lucid and productive analyses of postmodernism have come from those who are hostile to, or at least deeply ambivalent about, its implications". (Simon Reynolds, The Observer)

"...his local insights are so often remarkably acute, his prose beguiling, his command of varied cultural fields impressive..." (Stephen Howe, New Statesman and Society)
