Postmodernity is lived, it seems, at the end of history. In the essays collected in Local Transcendence, Alan Liu takes the pulse of such postmodern historicism by tracking two leading indicators of its acceleration in the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries: postmodern cultural criticism-including the new historicism, the new cultural history, cultural anthropology, the new pragmatism, and postmodern and postindustrial theory-and digital information technology. What is the relation between the new historicist anecdote and the database field, Liu asks, and can either have a critical function in the age of postmodern historicism? Local Transcendence includes two previously unpublished essays and a synthetic introduction in which Liu traverses from his earlier work on the theory of historicism to his recent studies of information culture to propose a theory of contingent method incorporating a special inflection of history: media history. 606 $aCriticism$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aCriticism$xHistory$y21st century 606 $aHistoricism 615 0$aCriticism$xHistory 615 0$aCriticism$xHistory 615 0$aHistoricism. 676 $a801/.950904 700 $aLiu$b Alan$f1953-$01793041 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910967808903321 996 $aLocal transcendence$94357200 997 $aUNINA
