Recenzii

ÒThis lucid and accessible work deserves a wide readership; it is both a refreshing antidote to self-referential, esoteric critical debates and a serious contribution to current theoretical concerns.Ó --Times Literary Supplement

Textul de pe ultima copertă

"Colas dares enter the postmodernism debate and ably takes on its leading thinkers. Not only literary critics and theoreticians, but historians, political scientists, and sociologists, too, will have to cite this study as an informed and solidly grounded foray into their respective disciplines."--Jonathan Tittler, Cornell University
