Abstract
ABSTRACT Can we talk about a post-post-Modernism? Is it the end of theory? What is it to read responsibly? In this interview, Stephen Ross, a specialist in Modernist studies, answers to these questions with attention to the challenges of contemporary critics, and to the need for ethical, generous and politically-conscious reading stances.

Summary
A relação das obras organizadas, co-editadas e publicadas denotam o principal interesse de Stephen Ross: o Modernismo – ou, poder-se-ia dizer, a resistência da poética da modernidade, que se mantém viva nas primeiras décadas do século XXI. Encontra-se o livro Modernism, Theory and Responsible Reading: A Critical Conversation, também sob sua organização. Post-modernism is, I think, highly specific: it refers to a set of aesthetic practices that pushed some of the ideas latent in modernist aesthetic to their logical extremes, while abandoning the modernist concern with meaning or significance in the world.
