Gregg Lambert argues that the "return of the Baroque" expresses a principle often hidden behind the cultural logic of postmodernism in its various national and cultural incarnations, a principal often in variance with Anglo-American modernism. Writers and theorists examined include Walter Benjamin, Paul de Man, Jacques Derrida, Michel Foucault, Octavio Paz, and Cuban novelists Alejo Carpentier and Severo Sarduy. A highly original and compelling reinterpretation of modernity, The Return of the Baroque in Modern Culture answers Raymond Williams' charge to create alternative national and international accounts of aesthetic and cultural history in order to challenge the centrality of Anglo-American modernismBaroque literatureHistory and criticismLiterature, Modern20th centuryHistory and criticismModernism (Aesthetics)Modernism (Literature)PostmodernismPhilosophyBaroque literatureHistory and criticism.Literature, ModernHistory and criticism.Modernism (Aesthetics)Modernism (Literature)Postmodernism.809/.911Lambert Gregg1961-870659UtOrBLWUtOrBLWUkLoBPBOOK9910451138703321The return of the Baroque in modern culture1973560UNINA
