From modernism to postmodernism: an anthology

This revised edition provides a collection of the essential readings of modernism and postmodernism. Motivated by the assumption that students cannot appreciate postmodernism without first understanding the development of modernity, this anthology puts contemporary debate in the context of the criticism of modernity since the 17th century. Chronologically and thematically arranged, this should be a suitable text for students and general readers alike. Its breadth and depth of coverage should also make it a useful and multidisciplinary resource in philosophy, literature, cultural studies, social theory, and religious studies.
