From Text to Hypertext: Decentering the Subject in Fiction, Film, the Visual Arts, and Electronic MediaIt is a tenet of postmodern writing that the subject the self is unstable, fragmented, and decentered. One useful way to examine this principle is to look at how the subject has been treated in various media in the premodern, modern, and postmodern eras. Silvio Gaggi pursues this strategy in From Text to Hypertext, analyzing the issue of subject construction and deconstruction in selected examples of visual art, literature, film, and electronic media.
