Description

The Cambridge History of Postmodern Literature offers a comprehensive survey of the field, from its emergence in the mid-twentieth century to the present day. It offers an unparalleled examination of all facets of postmodern writing that helps readers to understand how fiction and poetry, literary criticism, feminist theory, mass media, and the visual and fine arts have characterized the historical development of postmodernism. Covering subjects from the Cold War and countercultures to the Latin American Boom and magic realism, this History traces the genealogy of a literary tradition while remaining grounded in current scholarship. It also presents new critical approaches to postmodern literature that will serve the needs of students and specialists alike. Written by a host of leading scholars, this History will not only engage readers in contemporary debates but also serve as a definitive reference for years to come. 01.0_pp_i_ii_The_Cambridge_History_of_Postmodern_Literature 02.0_pp_iii_iii_The_Cambridge_History_of_Postmodern_Literature 03.0_pp_iv_iv_Copyright_page 04.0_pp_v_vii_Contents 05.0_pp_viii_xiv_Contributors 06.0_pp_1_14_General_introduction 07.0_pp_15_82_Postmodernism_before_postmodernity 07.2_pp_25_38_Postmodernism_and_its_precursors 07.3_pp_39_51_After_the_Holocaust 07.4_pp_52_66_Empires_ebb 07.5_pp_67_82_Cold_War_culture_at_the_mid-century 08.0_pp_83_172_The_long_sixties_19541975 08.2_pp_95_111_Mass_mediation 08.3_pp_112_126_Countercultures 08.4_pp_127_142_New_novels_from_the_1950s_to_1970 08.5_pp_143_158_The_Latin_American_boom_and_the_invention_of_magic_realism 08.6_pp_159_172_Rise_of_theory 09.0_pp_173_396_The_major_phase_peak_postmodernism_19731991 09.2_pp_185_198_The_architectural_paradigm 09.3_pp_199_213_The_dematerialization_of_the_art_object_a_conversation 09.4_pp_214_229_The_New_Hollywood_cinema_and_after 09.5_pp_230_246_Second-wave_feminism_and_after 09.6_pp_247_261_Gay_and_lesbian_subcultures_from_Stonewall_to_Angels_in_America 09.7_pp_262_277_The_post_in_postcolonial 09.8_pp_278_292_Celtic_postmodernism_Scotland_and_the_breakup_of_Britain 09.9_pp_293_307_Historiographic_metafiction 09.10_pp_308_323_High_and_low_or_Avant-Pop 09.11_pp_324_338_The_Oulipo_language_poetry_and_proceduralism 09.12_pp_339_352_From_punk_rock_to_the_politics_of_pop 09.13_pp_353_368_The_cyberworld_is_not_flat_cyberpunk_and_globalization 09.14_pp_369_382_The_art_market_and_the_revival_of_painting_in_the_1990s 09.15_pp_383_396_Hip-hop_is_not_postmodern 10.0_pp_397_514_Interregnum_19892001 10.2_pp_405_418_Postmodern_Japan_and_global_visual_culture 10.3_pp_419_433_Digital_culture_and_posthumanism 10.4_pp_434_449_Culture_wars_at_the_turn_of_the_millennium 10.5_pp_450_464_Second-generation_postmoderns 10.6_pp_465_479_Postmodern_China 10.7_pp_480_496_Postmodernism_cosmodernism_planetarism 10.8_pp_497_514_Epilogue_2001_2008_and_after 11.0_pp_515_540_Index

Professional Linux kernel architecture ''Wrox programmer to programmer''--Cover. - ''What you are reading right now is the result of an evolution over more than seven years: After two years of writing, the first edition was published in German by Carl Hanser Verlag in 2003.
