ABSTRACT

Postmodernism focuses on the criticality of culture in the alterations occurring at all levels—from the ordinary routines of distinct social communities to more abstruse artistic, knowledgeable, and scholarly undertakings, indicating the transformations that have effect in the creation, dissemination, and consumption of culture. Postmodernism separates from the former times in epitomizing both a reorganized culture (Nordberg, 2017), a tempering in the link between the cultural and other facets of social life and a distortion in the manner in which the role of the cultural is grasped. Postmodernism have reservations about representation and the intrinsic acceptance of a reality that is autonomous of representation (Nica, 2017) but capturable by it, suggesting the idea of a reality constituted by representations and consequently of polymorphous angles where representations become reality whereas the latter is unquestionably represented. Postmodern theory does not admit that the suitable use of reason may generate the truth, that such knowledge may assert something valid and consistent as regards our minds and the architecture of the natural world. Postmodernism puts forward a multiple grasp of truth, claiming that all knowledge is contingent, historical, and prolix. (Edwards & Usher, 1994)
