Publisher Description:

"This book is of major importance to the debate on the postmodern question." -- Jean Fran?ois Lyotard.

"This is Vattimo at his best -- and at his best he is very, very good, which is to say, erudite, witty, engaging, and precise. I do not think anyone comes close to Vattimo in his ability to correlate complex philosophical issues and arguments, such as those of Heidegger or Benjamin on such topics as 'the origin of the work of art' or technology and artistic production, with current social and cultural-political issues." -- Hayden White.
