Description
Summary:According to U. Eco, seriality is allegedly substantial to all narratives, not just the ones that have been designed to form a "series". This "serialization" of the narrative imagination, as well as of the criteria presiding over its critical analysis and its aesthetic appreciation is a result of the influence exercised by the symbolism of consumer goods on traditional symbolic practices. The purpose of this article is to show that the idea of literature, music, painting or, more generally, of art, which serves as a reference to all the critical and aesthetic metalanguages of postmodernity is only an ideological attempt to legitimate the forms through which the symbolic ascendancy of consumer goods displays its power on the behavior and the thought pattern of contemporary Western society.
