ABSTRACT
The last twenty-five years have witnessed a torrent of writings and theories on postmodernism and postmodernity. Architecture, the representational arts, and all branches of the humanities and the social science fields have been energized or travestied (depending on one's perspective) by the turn to things postmodern. Reciting the leading works across these multi-disciplinary considerations would easily fill the chapter. Suffice it to say that the writings of Baudrillard, deBord, Deleuze, Derrida, Jameson, Jencks, and Lyotard have set much of the intellectual tone and shaped the theoretical debates within this pluralistic porno oeuvre.
