Bruce Fleming

The End of the Modernist Era in Arts and Academia (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Contending that the Modernist project of the long 20th century is approaching exhaustion, with its remaining insights approaching triviality, this book explores the Modernist links between the arts and academic pursuits of the West - and their relationship with street protests - and considers what might follow this Modernist Era.
