High Resolution: Critical Theory and the Problem of Literacy
Henry S. Sussman
'High Resolution' examines the predicament of literacy in mass culture from the perspective of contemporary critical theory. Sussman argues that there is tension between literacy and the open acknowledgment of discrepancies within social and linguistic fields on the one hand, and what he terms the resolving function, the utopian picture of harmony depicted by the state and large organizations, on the other.
