Thus, His Sensitive Critique Traces A Hypothetical Line From Sade Through Four Modern Authorshemingway, Kafka, Genet, And Beckettto A Literature Still To Come. But The Line Also Breaks Into Two Interludes, One Concerning Pataphysics, Dada, And Surrealism, And The Other Concerning Existentialism And Aliterature.Combining Literary History, Brief Biography, And Critical Analysis, Hassan Surrounds These Authors With A Complement Of Avantgarde Writers Whose Works Also Foreshadow The Postmodern Temper. These Include Jarry, Apollinaire, Tzara, Breton, Sartre, Camus, Nathalie Sarraute, Robbegrillet, And In America, Cage, Salinger, Ginsberg, Barth, And Burroughs. Hassan Takes Account Also Of Related Contemporary Developments In Art, Music, And Philosophy, And Of Many Works Of Literary Theory And Criticism.For This New Edition, Hassan Has Added A New Preface And Postface On The Developing Character Of Postmodernism, A Concept Which Has Gained Currency Since The First Edition Of This Work, And Which He Himself Has Done Much To Theorize.
