«A Call for Cultural Symbiosis» is Jüri Talvet's essay on culture and global dialogue, published by Guernica Editions Inc in paperback (134 pages, in English).
Estonian poet and critic Jüri Talvet examines the place of culture in the postmodern world and questions the grand narratives of Western centers. Against that dominant rhetoric, he proposes a cultural symbiosis that opens a fertile dialogue between powerful countries and peripheries, with special attention to the role Estonia could play in that exchange.
The edition belongs to the Essay Series 52. The text was translated from Estonian by H. L. Hix.
Recommended for readers interested in cultural studies, Philosophy, History, and critical thought on relations between the West and the former Soviet republics.
