- Summary
- This, the first English translation of Post-History, finally brings to an Anglophone readership Flusser{u2019}s first critique of apparatus as the aesthetic, ethical and epistemological model of present times. In his main argument, Flusser suggests that our times may be characterized by the term ?program,? much in the same way that the 17th century is loosely characterized by the term ?nature,? the 18th by ?reason? and the 19th by ?progress.?
