摘要

This dissertation traces a genealogy of obsolescence and outmodedness in American postmodernity, moving through fiction and film from World War II to the present. It analyzes what I call figurations of the outmoded, a symbolic form through which the process of obsolescence is tangibly enfigured in both postmodern fiction and film. At its most abstract, this process refers to the world-historical succession of modes of production from the Greek polis to medieval feudalism to capitalist modernity; at its most concrete, it refers to goods and technologies that have fallen into disuse or been marked as unfashionable due to innovative advances and new trends. Figurations of the outmoded show that, over and against periodizations of postmodernity as the end of temporality and the disappearance of history in a total market culture such as the one we arguably inhabit today, historical change remains an imaginative and representational possibility in contemporary life. To develop this claim, the dissertation begins with a close look at Theodor Adorno and Walter Benjamin, who in Minima Moralia: Reflections on a Damaged Life (1951) and "Surrealism: The Last Snapshot of the European Intelligentsia" (1929) respectively turn to the obsolete as a site that is richly symbolic of an outside to capitalist modernity, a site that enfigures an alternative---and sometimes more emancipated---order of things than the one that confronts them in the present. The problem for this modernist politics of the outmoded is the rise of planned obsolescence, a postmodern industrial practice and business philosophy which in the 1950s and 1960s engineers the point of obsolescence in the cycle of production and consumption such that it is drawn back inside of the marketplace. The rest of the dissertation uncovers what the advent of planned obsolescence means for Adorno and Benjamin's vision by looking at postmodern forms of culture in which figurations of the outmoded play a prominent role in the second half of the twentieth century. Texts and films analyzed include Douglas Sirk's All that Heaven Allows (1955), Eric Segal's Love Story (1970) and John Barth's LETTERS (1979), and Don Delillo's Cosmopolis and William Gibson's Pattern Recognition (both 2003).

机译：这篇论文追溯了美国后现代主义中过时和过时的家谱，从第二次世界大战到现在一直贯穿于小说和电影。它分析了我所说的过时的象征形式，这是一种象征性的形式，通过这种形式，过时的过程在后现代小说和电影中得到了切实的体现。从最抽象的角度讲，这个过程指的是世界历史上生产方式的继承，从希腊大都市到中世纪的封建制度再到资本主义现代性。最具体地讲，它是指由于创新进步和新趋势而被废弃或被标记为不流行的商品和技术。过时的人物形象表明，在整个市场文化（例如我们今天所居住的一种市场文化）中，作为后继性的暂时性终结和历史的消失，后现代主义出现了过度和逆转，历史变化仍然是当代生活中具有想象力和代表性的可能性。为了证明这一点，本文首先仔细研究了西奥多·阿多诺（Theodor Adorno）和沃尔特·本杰明（Walter Benjamin），他们分别在《极简莫拉利亚：对受损生活的思考》（1951）和《超现实主义：欧洲知识分子的最后快照》（1929）中转向作为一个过时的站点，它是资本主义现代性外部的丰富象征，是一个站点，它代替了当前所面临的事物的一种替代（有时是更为解放的）秩序。过时的这种现代主义政治的问题是计划过时的兴起，这是一种后现代的工业实践和商业哲学，在1950年代和1960年代，工程师将生产和消费周期中的过时观点归结为在生产和消费周期中被淘汰。市场。通过研究后现代文化形式，过时人物的塑像在二十世纪下半叶起着重要作用，本文的其余部分揭示了计划的过时的到来对阿多诺和本杰明的愿景意味着什么。分析的文字和电影包括道格拉斯·西克（Douglas Sirk）的《天堂允许的一切》（All955，1955），埃里克·西格尔（Eric Segal）的《爱情故事》（1970）和约翰·巴特的《 LETTERS》（1979），以及唐·德里洛（Don Delillo）的《大都会》和威廉·吉布森的《模式识别》（2003）。
