Title: Jean Baudrillard: Selected Writings by Jean Baudrillard, Jacques Mourrain, Mark Poster ISBN: 0804742731 Publisher: Stanford Univ Pr Pub. Date: June, 2001 Format: Paperback Volumes: 1 List Price(USD): $19.95 |
Average Customer Rating: 2.5
Rating: 4
Summary: diabolically nietzschean
Comment: critics of "postmodernism" often fail to see past ideological blinders or perhaps are just too lazy to actually read the works of (anti)theorists like jean baudrillard. this collection is superb as mark poster offers a concise overview of baudrillard's "project" and also reveals baudrillard's work in all its iconoclasm and hyperbole all at once. this definitely makes for a fascinating read if not a critical insight into late modern society.
Rating: 1
Summary: A prominent instance of chic obfuscation.
Comment: Like so much travelling these days under the fashionable banner of "post-modernism," Baudrillard and his ilk fuel the arrogant irrelevancy that has reached epidemic proportions in the lower reaches of the Humanities, exemplified by that most dubious of 'disciplines,' "cultural studies." A no less fashionable curative to this pretentious non-sense is the (otherwise, but much more fruitfully, problematic) work of Richard Rorty, particularly his widely-read book, CONTINGENCY, IRONY AND SOLIDARITY.
