## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Sublime prose from one of history's greatest thinkers
*by P***S on October 16, 2012*

Some favourite quotations:"It is no longer a question of imitation, nor duplication, nor even parody. It is a question of substituting the signs of the real for the real, that is to say of an operation of deterring every real process via its operating double." (p.2)(on god) "This is precisely what was feared by Iconoclasts, who millennial quarrel is still with us today . This is precisely because they predicted this omnipotence of simulacra, the faculty simulacra have of effacing God from conscience of man , and the destructive annihilating truth that they allow to appear - that deep down God never existed, that only simulacrum ever existed, even God himself was never anything but his own simulacrum - from this came their urge to destroy the images." (p.4)"We are fascinated by Ramses as Renaissance Christians were by the American Indians, those (human?) beings who had never know the word of Christ. Thus at the beginning of colonization , there was a moment of stupor and bewilderment before the very possibility of escaping the universal law of the Gospel. There were two possible responses: either admit that this Law was not universal, or exterminate the Indians to efface the evidence. In general, one contented oneself with converting them , or even simply discovering them, which would suffice to slowly exterminate them." (p.10)"Parody renders submission and transgression equivalent, and that is the most serious crime, because it cancels out the difference upon which the law is based," (p.21)"History is our lost referential, that is to say our myth," (p.43)"Neofiguration is an invocation of resemblance, but at the same time the flagrant proof of the disappearance of objects in their very representation: hyperreal." (p.45)"Today, it is the real that has become the alibi of the model, in a world controlled by the principle of simulation. And paradoxically, it is the real that has become our true utopia - but a utopia that is no longer in the realm of the possible, that can only be dreampt of as one would dream of a lost object." (p.123)

海外発送なので心配でしたがちゃんと綺麗な状態で送られてきました。商品画像からも分かるように日本ではあまり見ない形状、大きさの書籍なので本棚に合うかは見ておいた方がいいです。
