Jordan~ wrote:Lyotard explains what he means by "modern", and consequently what "postmodern", means in the book. The introduction is not particularly clear, indeed, but I found that by the time I finished the book I knew what he was on about. The most difficult section, as I recall, is in the middle, when he's talking about two modes of the legitimation of knowledge.
Thanks for encouragement. I won't let the Introduction prevent me from reading the rest.
