Marquard, Fehér and Lyotard on the Disposition of Modernity/Postmodernity

Author(s): Tamás Valastyán
Subject(s): Philosophy, History of Philosophy, Philosophical Traditions
Published by: Korunk Baráti Társaság
Keywords: Jean-François Lyotard; Odo Marquard; Ferenc Fehér; modernity; postmodernity

Summary/Abstract: The paper compares Jean-François Lyotard’s, Odo Marquard’s and Ferenc Fehér’s conception of aesthetics from the viewpoint of the disposition of modernity/postmodernity. None of the authors considers the comparison between modernity and postmodernity mechanically. While Marquard and Fehér claim the modernity of the postmodern, Lyotard affirms the postmodernity of the modern, with a view to Nietzsche’s basic insight that reality can only be justified as an aesthetic phenomenon.
