From Modernism to Postmodernism

Diana Platgalve

An excellent study material for understanding a contemporary intellectual movement. Starting with notions of modern civilisation an it’s critics from 17th and 19th century, modernity period till around the 1950s, and postmodernism from post-World War II period. The book is organised chronologically, helping to draw the big picture of influences, including the most influential pieces and criticism. The book is excellently showing the self-contradiction of postmodernism, and the unique period of modernity in human history.
Not very in depth, but rather for understanding the big picture.
