Sequel to History by Elizabeth Deeds Ermarth
Offers a definition of postmodernism as a reformation of time. This book demonstrates the crisis of our dominant idea of history and its dissolution in the rhythmic time of postmodernism. It discusses several crises of cultural identity: the crisis of the object, the crisis of the subject, and the crisis of the sign.
