Question

This movement is criticized for its “Dionysian messianism” in a work accusing its members of performative contradictions. An appendix about this movement discusses how it defies Kant by forgoing beautiful form to put forward the unrepresentable. A book titled for this movement contrasts language games between the expert who knows (-5[1])and the philosopher who questions. (15[1])Artworks by Van Gogh and Andy Warhol about (15[1])shoes (15[1])are contrasted in a book identifying this movement as the (15[1])(*) cultural (10[1])logic of late (10[1])capitalism. (10[7])The fracturing (10[1])of (10[1])meta-narratives (10[2])characterizes this (10[1])movement (10[2])according to a book titled for it. (10[2])For 10 (10[1])points, name this intellectual movement whose condition (10[2])titles a Jean-Francois Lyotard book, often portrayed as an anti-objectivist reaction (-5[1])to modernity. ■END■ (10[5])
