Postmodern Theory by Douglas Kellner and Steven Best, Chapter 1: In Search of the Postmodern

In aesthetic and cultural theory, polemics emerged over whether modernism in the arts was or was not dead and what sort of post­modern art was succeeding it. In philosophy, debates erupted concerning whether or not the tradition of modern philosophy had ended, and many began celebrating a new postmodern philosophy associated with Nietzsche, Heidegger, Derrida, Rorty, Lyotard, and others. Eventually, the postmodern assault produced new social and political theories, as well as theoretical attempts to define the multifaceted aspects of the postmodern phenomenon itself.1.
