Television - Competition and Inspirational Source to Literature

Film and television dominate the contemporary culture, a culture of image. The role of television is so important that it can be said that it is the main depository of postmodern philosophy. Books have been transformed in artifacts of mass culture. As a consequence, postmodern literature reflects, more and more, the new perception of a world in which the most important form of reality tends to become the virtual one, and the image becomes more important than its model.
