 The Ecstasy of Reproduction Postmodernity and Its Contemporaneity【電子書籍】[ Alberto Castelli ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞＜em＞The Ecstasy of Reproduction strives＜/em＞ to describe contemporaneity. The subject is the first quarter of the 21st century which the author sees as a condition of historical crisis. Therefore, he analyzes its moral, sociological, and aesthetic expression. We do not need another book on postmodernity, but we need to know where we are along the postmodern turn. Because, of course, we are still in it. We are at least a century away from its ending. “The claim that postmodernism has not ended and that understanding this is a crucial component to understanding contemporary culture differentiates my claim from the vast majority of scholarship on the period, which demands that postmodernism has ended (whether in 1989 or 2001 or 2008, etc.). My reading of cultural objects presents some polemic allegations that are generative into thinking through the distinctions in making charge about whether postmodernism has or has not ended.” The author questions the possibility of creation, culture, the writer, and the artist. Ca va sans dire originality is a thing of the past. The one of the present age is not an exercise of plagiarism, it is simply that to create is to reproduce. Castelli writes this text with immense intellectual responsibility and feels that history is a vanishing process. If the artificiality of hyperreality is more real than reality, then it is difficult to believe that science is progress. Even more when a mass of anonymous consumers dances in unison before a hologram.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 4,934円 |

 Contemporaneity of the Mahabharata Narrative Epic of the Moment【電子書籍】 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Notwithstanding its renowned comprehensive narrative encapsulation of the Indic culture, the Mahabharata keeps on posing a challenge to its contemporary readers: how do we relate to something over two-millennia old in today’s context without freezing it in time? This volume looks at the problem from diverse periods and standpoints and shows us that this challenge is, in fact, a legacy of the Mahabharata and the responses to this challenge are what makes the text ever-contemporary to different readers of different times and positions.＜/p＞ ＜p＞It traces the evolution of the Mahabharata from its inception in the fifth century BCE to twenty-first century, spanning classical Sanskrit tradition, Persian and Bengali adaptations, the Mahabharata as a serialized TV show to more recent graphic narratives. By attempting to analyse this diversity, this volume further delves into how the issues in the Mahabharata resonate across time, from the world of ancient sages to contemporary struggles of women. The essays in this book adopt a dual perspective to appreciate both the Mahabharata’s historical context, its exploration of war, heroes and heroines, gender, psychology, philosophy, and its implications for the future.＜/p＞ ＜p＞This book will be of interest to scholars and researchers of Indian literature, ancient literature and philosophy, English literature, cultural studies, visual studies, gender studies, and translation studies.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 9,616円 |
