Fredric Jameson sweeps from the Renaissance to The WireHigh modernism is now as far from us as antiquity was for the Renaissance. Such is the premise of Fredric Jamesons major new work in which modernist works, this time in painting (Rubens) and music (Wagner and Mahler), are pitted against latemodernist ones (in film) as well as a variety of postmodern experiments (from SF to The Wire, from Eurotrash in opera to Altman and East German literature): all of which attempt, in their different ways, to invent new forms to grasp a specific social totality. Throughout the historical periods, argues Jameson, the question of narrative persists through its multiple formal changes and metamorphoses.
