Some of diagnosed reasons for the crisis may include the loss of the referent, ever-increasing distance from the reality of the referential world, the crisis of truth in political discourse, crisis of the idea of re-presentation in philosophy, or the paradox of self-reference in semiotics. The contributors approach this intriguing phenomenon through a detailed analysis, offering novel insights into the realm of literature and the arts.
