Was there a sudden break in the world of art, literature, and music when modernism gave way to postmodernism? Philip Nel attacks the notion of tremendous and sudden change in artistic understanding and literary practice. Instead, he proposes that a series of small but far-reaching changes drew understanding from modernism to postmodernism.
