In this course we will explore conceptions of postmodernism, focusing on such things as the blurred margins between genres and disciplines and between high and low culture; the influence of science, technology, psychology, linguistics, and post-Kantian philosophy. We will examine postmodern attitudes toward and notions of parody, representation, and historiography, and we will model the relationship between postmodernism, feminism, and postcolonialism. We will begin our effort to position the postmodern by reading and discussing a number of philosophical and theoretical texts; then we’ll move on to fiction, film, drama, and poetry. The course will be designed to be useful to students specializing in a number of fields.
