Postmodern videos




Bill Kynes- What is Postmodernism?

The video explains how hard postmodernism is to define, the post part of postmodernism is very significant because it explains how postmodernism was a reaction against modernism as post suggests that it came after modernism. Modernism has a certain objective however postmodernism has a huge sense of creativity because everyone's adaptation of it can be different, allowing people t become creative. No one in terms of mankind are in neutral position as no one has a Gods eye view of reality. There is a lot of different perspectives from different social classes, however it has no one answer. Author of texts are no longer significant it’s more about what the audience of the text get from it, the conclusions which they draw is more important than the message the author wants to promote. As a result God is seen not to be significant as no grand story which explains why everything exists in the way that it does, the truth is simply what works for you and what can get others to believe people create their own meaning.
