Understanding Postmodernism, #8.

CONCEPT

This “project” is an informal discussion of modernism and postmodernism, ultimately to be applied to the larger Gothic Funk debate. A more detailed description of the project is available here. PLEASE ADD YOUR COMMENTS AND JOIN THE DEBATE:


Paragraph 2, Sentence 7:

A century later, postmodernism would find itself obliged to posit various ways of undermining those ideals of self-legislation, forcing the arts back into their uncomfortable social contexts and foregrounding their intersections with “popular culture.”
