In this book, Lyotard addresses an enormous variety of topics, including the human body; modernist and postmodernist art, literature, and music; the discourse of philosophy; time and memory; space, the city, and landscape; the sublime; and the relation between aesthetics and politics. The analysis is enriched throughout by Lyotard's frequent references to such thinkers as Kant, Heidegger, Adorno, and Derrida.
