Postmodernism has been a buzzword in contemporary society for the last decade. But how can it be defined? In this Very Short Introduction Christopher Butler challenges and explores the key ideas of postmodernists, and their engagement with theory, literature, the visual arts, film, architecture, and music. He treats artists, intellectuals, critics, and social scientists 'as if they were all members of a loosely constituted and quarrelsome political party' - a party which includes such members as Cindy Sherman, Salman Rushdie, Jacques Derrida, Walter Abish, and Richard Rorty - creating a vastly entertaining framework in which to unravel the mysteries of the 'postmodern condition', from the politicizing of museum culture to the cult of the politically correct.

aVSI系列里最差的一本，作者私货太多，缺乏清晰的学科主线脉络，自身的观点所占比重几乎超过学科自身的介绍。aVSI系列的意义在于学科普及，而不是看作者发牢骚。作者对后现代主义毫不掩饰的敌意已经严重地影响到他对这个学科的认知。如果对后现代主义感兴趣更推荐隔壁Belsey的post structuralism: a very short introduction

评分这本书是这套丛书里含金量非常高的一本，直接改变了我认为理论性通识读本中Oxford逊色于Routledge的看法。这本书的作者有成为独立理论家的潜质，他的核心立场是：后现代主义是最好的解构者，也是最差的建构者。由于它自身含有诸多无法解决的矛盾，所以它的时代已经过去，它必将遭到下一代的质疑和针对于它的理论更新。
