In The Postmodern Condition Jean-Francois Lyotard extends that analysis to postmodernism by looking at the status of science, technology, and the arts, the significance of technocracy, and the way the flow of information and knowledge are controlled in the Western world. Lyotard emphasized language; the world of postmodern knowledge can be represented as a game of language where speaking is participation in the game whose goal is the creation of new and ever-changing social linkages.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: USItem Height: 229mmItem Length: 152mmItem Width: 10mmGenre: Society & CultureBook Series: Theory and History of LiteratureAuthor: Jean-François LyotardTopic: Philosophy & SpiritualityRelease Year: 1984 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
