About this title

Synopsis

"Postmodernism" is a valuable resource for the increasing numbers of
teachers and students in higher education involved in courses on
postmodernism and literary theory. It is a collection of the incessantly
cited but nevertheless still widely-scattered critical texts on the
subject and includes all the "classics" as well as some less obvious,
through no less stimulating, choices. An introduction and commentary by
Pat Waugh provides essential information and offers a context within
which to view the chosen texts. The first postmodernist reader prepared
with literature students particularly in mind; the thorough and helpful
editorial commentary help to ensure that this will become an essential
coursebook.
