Amazon.com description: Product Description: The Last Book of Postmodernism comprises set of essays written on and about âpostmodernismâ and education. It is written in an apocalyptic tone that treats themes of religion and spiritualism, drawing on poststructuralist sources of inspiration, to contrast the present âpostmodern conditionâ and the philosophical significance and historical influence of Nietzscheâs statement âGod is dead.â The book considers the meaning of the âendâ of Christendom and the prospect of global spirituality. It also considers the âendâ of literature and the beginning of user-generated cultures and the implications of this shift for education and the philosophical model of dialogue that has dominated the humanities in the West. It charts the âendâ of philosophy and the rise of âbodyâ criticism, the promise of the Enlightenment, the relation between education, power and freedom, geophilosophy and the pedagogy of the concept, and the narrative turn as a basis for a new critical language for educational studies. Finally, the book considers post-postmodernism and the âendâ of the linguistic turn in educational theory.
