Book Synopsis
In this volume, the author seeks to explore those unobtrusive links that regulate and organize the ensemble of our representations - the raw material refashioned in our imaginary and our fantasies - exploring what it is that is recognizably "postmodern" about them.

Table of Contents
Part 1 Treatise on style: by way of introduction; some generalities on style; the transmutation of values; an aesthetic style; style and daily life; style and communication. Part 2 The imaginal world: fear of the image; the image as "mesocosm"; the linking image; "the imaged object"; transfiguration by images. Part 3 The communitarian ideal.
