What is Postmodernism?
This clip essentially states that postmodernism is a rejection of absolute truth as a phenomenon, suggesting that we are essentially apart of a new world that is ignorant and blind to modernist views, as they are considered to be nearing becoming obsolete, with the way the modern world has progressed. One person suggests that there can be no definition of what postmodernism really is because this would infer a modernist attitude, as it would indubitably resemble and absolute truth. It is believed in the clip that spreads of cultures, media and technologies has ultimately resulted in the modernist lines being somewhat blurred in that rational thought is of a bygone era and no two groups of people can conform to one absolute truth, due to the aforementioned cultures. One major point mentioned is the notion that modernism beliefs are essentially just big stories about such things as Christ and religions, and how humans know all, ultimately meaning that in the irrational thought of a postmodernist, modernist beliefs and ideologies are fabricated and postmodernism reflects reality.
