Culture

Viac o knihe

Culture is a defining aspect of what it means to be human. Defining culture is not, however, so straightforward. Terry Eagleton, one of our foremost literary and cultural critics, is uniquely poised to take on the challenge. In a cogent account of culture today and through time, as theoretical fixation and as lived experience, Eagleton's keenly analytical and acerbically funny book illuminates culture's collusion with colonialism, nationalism, the decline of religion, and rule over the 'uncultured' masses.
