Life of Jean Baudrillard
- Jean Baudrillard (1929-2007) was a French philosopher, sociologist, and cultural theorist. He is best known for his theories of postmodernity, hyperreality, and simulacra. He was born in Reims, France, and studied German language and literature at the Sorbonne in Paris. He later taught at the University of Paris-Vincennes, where he developed his theories of postmodernity and hyperreality.
- Baudrillard's work was heavily influenced by the French philosopher and sociologist, Jean-Paul Sartre. He was also influenced by the works of the French psychoanalyst Jacques Lacan and the German philosopher Martin Heidegger. Baudrillard's work focused on the idea of the simulacrum, or the idea that reality is a copy of a copy, and that the original has been lost. He argued that the simulacrum is a product of the media and consumer culture, and that it has replaced the real.
