In this important new study he develops his analysis of the phenomenon of postmodernity.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIn a wide-ranging discussion the author examines the philosophy of Kant, Heidegger, Adorno, and Derrida and looks at the works of modernist and postmodernist artists such as Cézanne, Debussy, and Boulez.
