Simulacra and Simulation
Jean Baudrillard, Sheila Faria Glaser
The book explores the concept of simulacra, or copies without originals, in contemporary society, arguing that reality has been replaced by a hyperreality where symbols and signs have become more significant than the real world they represent. It delves into the implications of this phenomenon across various domains, including media, culture, and economics, suggesting that the distinction between reality and representation has become increasingly blurred.
