Neither a defense nor a denunciation of the postmodern, it continues Hutcheon's previous projects in studying formal self-consciousness in art, but adds to this both a historical and ideological dimension.

Editorial Reviews

Review

`A Poetics of Postmodernism is essential reading for anyone interested in current studies of literature, art and entertainment.' - Geoff Wade, Reviewing Psychology

`Hutcheon's study is a reasoned, controlled and intelligent defence of postmodernist problematizing of history and fiction which should be read by all those interested in the debate centring on the status and value of postmodernist culture.' - Peter Kitson, Notes & Queries

Of all the terms bandied about in both current cultural theory and contemporary writing on the arts, postmodernism must be the most over-and under-defined. Read the first page
