Book Description
In Chronoschisms Ursula Heisse explores the way developments in communication and information technology have led to the emergence of a new culture of time in Western socities. Drawing on theories of postmodernism and narratology, she shows how postmodern narratives break up the concept of plot into a spectrum of contradictory story lines allowing new conceptions of history and posthistory to emerge. This wideranging study offers new readings of postmodernist theory and fresh insight into the often vexed relationship between literature and science.
