The Crisis of Narration - Byung-Chul Han - książka
Producent: John Wiley & Sons
Narratives have traditionally served as the glue that unites us, fostering a sense of community and grounding our existence. However, in today's information-driven society, where things feel increasingly arbitrary and unpredictable, the essence of storytelling has shifted. It's become more about 'storyselling,' and the unifying power of narratives has diminished. While narratives once built strong communities, modern storytelling only briefly connects people as consumers. The ancient practice of gathering around a fire to share tales has been replaced by digital screens, which often isolate rather than unify. In this digital age, storytelling has been co-opted by capitalism, reducing it to a tool for selling rather than sharing communal experiences. This shift reflects a collective struggle to handle unpredictability, yet storytelling in its current form fails to rebuild the enduring narrative communities of the past. Instead, it represents a troubling trend of our era. Byung-Chul Han, a keen observer of modern culture, analyzes this dilemma with remarkable clarity and skill.
