WiSe 15/16: V-Literary Studies: Periods-Genres-Concepts I: Postmodern Literature and Theory
Stephan Laqué
Comments
The subject of modernism both belongs to and is 'subject to', i.e. dominated and conditioned, by a comprehensive crumbling of certainties, by mounting contradictions and a sense of limitation, fragmentation and relentless acceleration. Though far from redressing this sense of uncertainty and dislocation, postmodern thought offers an affirmative approach, an approach which is intent on embracing and exploring the late-modern situation. Looking at exemplary texts from theory and literature, this lecture explores postmodernism's responses to the late-modern crisis of representation and subjectivity. close
