1.Postmodernism: A Very Short Introduction (Very Short Introductions)Postmodernism: A Very Short Introduction (Very Short Introductions)
from Oxford University Press, USA
Price: $6.54

Customer Review:
I'm a student of contemporary art, and I consider myself educated and well read, but I find even this brief "introduction" to be chock full of the jargon and philosophical pretensions of a lot of high-level art criticism. Even though the author playfully tries to put these pretensions in their... more info

2.Lend Me Your Ears: Great Speeches in HistoryLend Me Your Ears: Great Speeches in History
from W. W. Norton & Company
Price: $17.49

Customer Review:
I was surprised at how thick this book was when I received it! It's absolutely loaded with speeches, over 200 in all. Speeches are broken down into sections by the type of speech, so if you're looking for something of a particular flavor, you can skim through the section titles to find what you... more info

from Duke University Press
Price: $17.57

Customer Review:
Jameson's book is, if the subject is somewhat redundant some 18 years after publication, altogether proving of Jameson's brilliance, not merely in his critical analysis of attitudes toward the visual arts and men of letters, but in his synopsis of philosophical and cultural underpinnings of this... more info

It's nice of these Oxford University Press dudes to introduce me to a guy like (whatever his first name is) Habermas, because I've never heard of him.

6.Backwards and Forwards: A Technical Manual for Reading PlaysBackwards & Forwards: A Technical Manual for Reading Plays
from Southern Illinois University Press
Price: $13.00

Customer Review:
This book was an eye-opener for me. My sister-in-law, who teaches theater and directs many plays, recommended it. It's intended for directors, to show them how to analyze play scripts--backwards and forwards. I would recommend it to playwrights, readers of plays, and theater audiences. And... more info

7.An Introduction to Discourse Analysis: Theory and MethodAn Introduction to Discourse Analysis: Theory and Method
from Routledge

Customer Review:
Having read this book for a graduate seminar in Discourse Analysis I can give Gee credit for producing a very readable book on a subject that has literature that often strays into the hard to read category. The book systematically lays out Gee's version of Discourse Analysis with useful examples and... more info

9.Word Pictures: Knowing God Through Story and ImaginationWord Pictures: Knowing God Through Story & Imagination
from IVP Books
Price: $9.62

Customer Review:
Why would this author use propositional statements to "make his case"? If imagery and story and metaphor are so perfect to get the point across why didn't he write a poem or an allegory? If propostional statements are necessary and primary for Godawa to get the point across, perhaps they are also... more info

10.Nietzsche and Postmodernism (Postmodern Encounters)Nietzsche and Postmodernism (Postmodern Encounters)
from Totem Books
Price: $40.27

Customer Review:
This is really more of an essay than a book, but it provides a clear introduction to some complex ideas. Dave Robinson explores the notion that Nietzsche was a forerunner of postmodernism. As Robinson points out, both Nietzsche and postmodernism are difficult to pin down. Nietzsche wrote many... more info
