Abstract:
Gimmick! written by Joost Zwagerman is a postmodern artist’s novel. The protagonist Walter van Raamsdonk, in short called Raam, is a visual artist, just like his friends Groen and Eckhardt. This article analyzes the novel as a postmodern phenomenon centered on postmodern visual art. Because the novel and the visual arts in the novel can be characterized as postmodern, it is investigated which characteristics of the post­modern can be found in both disciplines. To what extent does the novel reflect post-modern art? Citing in both disciplines has far-reaching consequences for the appearance of visual art and for the novel.

Abstract:
According to Linda Hutcheon, postmodern intertextuality desires to close the gap between past and present of the reader and desires to rewrite the past in a new context. The use of postmodern intertextuality in Sarubhakta’s The Peak [an English translation from his original Nepali version short novel Chulee] has some relation with a fictional work from the past. There are some visible links between Sarubhakta’s novel and Hemingway’s short novel The Old Man and the Sea as both novels revolve around the theme of adventure. The major objective of this paper, therefore, is to indentify Sarubhakta’s book as an adventure novel, having some intertextual connections with Hemingway’s book. As a number of books in this category are surprisingly large, in this paper, only Sarubhakta’s book has been studied making comparisons to Hemingway’s book. Sarubhakta’s novel is the text that adheres to postmodern intertextuality as it challenges the concept of originality and the question of whether rewriting another author’s text is not a good piece of writing.

Abstract:
Uta von Naumburg, die Gattin des Markgrafen Ekkehard II. von Meißen, lebte wahrscheinlich zwischen 1000 und 1043. In der deutschen Kulturtradition erfreut sie sich einer gewissen Popularität, jedoch nicht als eine historische Gestalt, sondern als Steinfigur im Westchor des Naumburger Domes. In den 30er Jahren des 20. Jahrhunderts wurde sie zum Symbol der deutschen Weiblichkeit erhoben und im nationalsozialistischen Sinne mythisiert. Von der Rezeption der Stifterin des Naumburger Domes ausgehend, strebt der vorliegende Beitrag an, am Beispiel des postmodernen historischen Romans von Claudia und Nadja Beinerts Die Herrin der Kathedrale 2013 die De-Mythisierungsstrategie von Utas Figur zu präsentieren. Eine wichtige Rolle wird dabei den mittelalterlichen Weiblichkeits- und Machtvorstellungen zugemessen, die in die postmoderne Narrativik des Vergangenen eingebettet sind. Uta von Naumburg – a “German Icon” from the Middle Ages? Figurations of femininity in the postmodern novel Die Herrin der Kathedrale by Claudia and Nadja Beinert Uta von Naumburg, wife of margrave Ekkehard II from Meissen, probably lived from 1000 to 1043 AD. In the German cultural tradition she is not known as a historical figure, but as a stone statue from the Naumburg Cathedral. In the 1930s she became a symbol of German femininity and was made a heroine of the National Socialist myth. Beginning with the historical figure of Uta, this article will show the strategies used to demythologize the founder of the cathedral, based on the postmodern novel Die Herrin der Kathedrale 2013, written by Claudia and Nadja Beinert. The authors present the ways of the deconstruction of the medieval paradigm of femininity with the help of narrative strategies.

Abstract:
This research paper endeavors to examine the postmodern absurdism as a literary sub genre in postmodern fiction. It delves deep into the concept of absurdism by concentrating upon the characteristics that distinguish it as a postmodern sub genre. Through the analysis of the postmodern novel, The Only Story (2018), this research paper illustrates how the characteristics of absurdism haven impact upon a postmodern society characterized by boredom, meaninglessness, futility, and confusion. It also highlights how different characters, events, and places have been portrayed in the novel to depict the absurdity of human existence. The theoretical paradigm of the research is based upon Thomas Nagel’s Essay “The Absurd” which is about postmodern space of absurdism and was presented in the American Philosophical Association Eastern Division. The study limelight's how the absurd occurrences and bizarre characters found in the researcher's primary text depict the complexity of the postmodern absurd world in both literal and metaphoric dimensions.

Abstract:
Depuis l’invention du terme hypertexte par Ted Nelson en 1965, il y a eu des débats fréquents à propos des mérites et des dangers des textes numériques, pour savoir si le développement des technologies informatiques causerait l’obsolescence des supports imprimés. Les prophéties étaient apocalyptiques et l’avenir des livres semblait sombre. Environ cinquante ans plus tard, tant les supports imprimés qui étaient condamnés que les hypertextes numériques qui semblaient être leurs exécuteurs existent encore. Les romans sont toujours populaires et les hypertextes aussi. Nul n’est dépassé ou éradiqué par l’autre. Au contraire, la coexistence des livres et leurs homologues numériques a affecté notre perception des textes, des lecteurs, des auteurs et de l’expérience de lecture. Plus important, l’échange entre les deux médias a eu comme résultat l’apparition d’une fiction expérimentale exceptionnelle à la fois sur écran et sur papier. La conjonction entre la fiction et les technologies numériques est au centre de ce projet qui vise à d’étudier l’hyperfiction, ses racines dans la fiction traditionnelle et ses descendants imprimés
Since Ted Nelson coined the term “hypertext” in 1965, there have been frequent debates on the merits and dangers of digital texts and whether the development of digital technology would outdate the print-based medium. The prophecies were apocalyptic and the future of books seemed bleak. About fifty years later, the doomed print-based medium and the digital hypertexts, their would-be executioners,both still exist. Novels are still popular and so is hyperfiction. Neither outdated or eradicated the other. Instead, the coexistence of books and their digital counterparts has affected ourperception of text, reader, writer and the reading experience. More importantly, the exchange between the two media has resulted in exceptional experimental fiction both on screen and on paper. The conjunction between fiction and digital technology is of concern to this project which attempts to study hyperfiction, its roots in fiction and its printed descendants

Abstract:
The creative component of my project is a conteporary, confessional novel, Refrain. The narrator, Jake, has spent his youth chasing a life that matched his dreams - first as a would-be rock star and then by fleeing to India in search of exotic adventures with his girlfriend. Now he returns alone to the suburban backwater he'd tried so hard to escape, ready for stability and responsibility. However, his attempts to reinvent himself in this world of chronic unemployment and limited horizons are thrown into confusion by old friends, estranged fmaily members, an unresolved attachment, and by his musical successor - a volatile young woman with her own problems, who draws him back to things he'd rather forget and towards a future he isn't ready to face. Refain is a story of idealism and desire, fading hopes and unexpected opportunities, long-distance love and short-sightedness. The exegetical component of my project investigates the term 'portmodern confession' as an i ntersection of the confessional narrative mode and postmodernism, and its application to two recent texts: The sportswriter by Richard Ford, and The remains of teh day by Kazuo Ishiguro.

Abstract:
This thesis investigates the relationship between the apocalyptic narrative and the postmodern novel. It explores and builds on Patricia Waugh‟s hypothesis in Practising Postmodernism: Reading Modernism (1992) which suggests that that the postmodern is characterised by an apocalyptic sense of crisis, and argues that there is in fact a strong relationship between the apocalyptic and the postmodern. It does so through an exploration of apocalyptic narratives and themes in five postmodern novels. It also draws on additional supporting material which includes literary and cultural theory and criticism, as well as historical theory. In using the novel as a medium through which to explore apocalyptic narratives, this thesis both assumes and affirms the novel‟s importance as a cultural artefact which reflects the concerns of the age in which it is written. I suggest that each of the novels discussed in this thesis demonstrates the close relationship between the apocalyptic and the postmodern through society‟s concern over the direction of history, the validity of meta-narratives, and other cultural phenomenon, such as war, the development of nuclear weaponry, and terrorism. Although the scope of this thesis is largely confined to the historical-cultural epoch known as postmodernity, it also draws on literature and cultural criticism from earlier periods so as to provide a more comprehensive framework for investigating apocalyptic ideas and their importance inside the postmodern novel. A number of modernist writers are therefore referred to or quoted throughout this thesis, as are other important thinkers from preceding periods whose ideas are especially pertinent. The present thesis was researched and written between March 2010 and August 2011 and is dedicated to all of those people who lost their lives in the apocalyptic events of the February 22nd Christchurch earthquake.

Abstract:
This thesis takes as its subject the superficial nature of the normative masculine gender role. To investigate the creation of this role I have attempted to bring some understanding of recent theorisation of the postmodern, and of gendered identity, to readings of selected contemporary fiction. I have chosen to focus on several contemporary American texts. In a bid to avoid essentialising masculinity ever further I attempt to embrace the self-reflexive way in which these novels are written in conjunction with the various postmodernisms posited by Fredric Jameson, Jean-Francois Lyotard, John Frow and Jean Baudrillard. Despite differing in significant ways, these critics all explore the idea of multiple identities. The lack of fixity this multiplicity fosters ensures that masculinity as an intrinsic given becomes disputed. 'The dialogues this creates reveal a category that is insecure, mobile and fluctuating, regardless of attempts to present it as otherwise. 'The first novel looked at is 'Thomas Pynchon's Vineland. This narrative encourages the questioning of the 'standard' masculinity adopted in patriarchal society by displaying men vulnerable to Post Traumatic Stress disorder, hysteria and madness, due to the war in Vietnam and governmental law enforcement. Masculinity is portrayed as tentative, provisional and impossible to maintain to society's exacting requirements. Psychotherapy is shown to confusingly both offer a fixed and stable 'self, whilst also promoting the encouragement of potential multiple other' selves' . Don DeLillo's White Noise continues the search for these 'selves'. Jack Gladney's debilitating fear of death compromises his mental and physical health. His strivings to deal with this, whilst also fulfilling various strands of the desired male stereotype, are explored through life-threatening disasters, usually pre-empted by rapidly developing technology. Jack's career in academia raises questions about the circulation of knowledge and information. Like Vineland, White Noise also examines the role of the family unit as an inherent part of the enforcement of standardised identities. 'The Family', both in its domestic format and via its more violent reincarnation as The Mafia, plays a vital role in all of these texts. Within DeLillo's Underworld (Section Three), the protagonist's therapy brings him away from the influence of The Mob, transforming him from murderer to upstanding citizen. His career in Waste Management provides a metaphor for the text's exploration of the manner in which abject matter is expulsed as part of a bid to conform to societal requirements. I draw upon Julia Kristeva's work on abjection in this section. The ritualistic nature of what is discarded and what revered is further explored in the fourth novel, Bret Easton Ellis's American Psycho. This text offers an extreme picture of the potential results of stereotypical containment, with a protagonist who is determined to hyper-conform. Patrick Bateman not only espouses the thorough commodification of society, he also strives to exceed every stipulation pertaining to consummate masculinity. Bret Easton Ellis's Glamorama, provides the material for the final chapter, it offers a chilling portrayal of surface-obsessed society. Mediated images of celebrities provide role models for the characters' identity formation. Postmodernity's purported lack of depth is explored in the light of Baudrillard's theories. The potentialities of the cybernetic post-human are raised and discussed via the theorisation of Lyotard and Donna Haroway. The texts were selected for their usefulness in demonstrating a developing notion that rather than forming a new or extended sense of masculinity, men are acknowledging a growing awareness of the self-conscious, performative, indeed 'hyper', nature of any masculine identity. Contemporary films and television programmes are examined alongside the novels.

Abstract:
This thesis comprises an original work of fiction, entitled Liberty Horses, and a commentary which explores and compares postmodern English and American fiction, locating my own creative writing practice in that field of contemporary writing. My original work of fiction, Liberty Horses, is divided into two parts, being 'Part One: Liberty Horses' and 'Part Two: Dreamland'. The critical section of this thesis is divided into three chapters. Chapter One, 'American Postmodernism', shows how American writers, such as Richard Brautigan, William Gaddis and Don DeLillo, continually re-interpreted American fiction in regard to its Anglo-American tradition and explored the nature of Consumerism and Corporatism within American society and how such writers refuted the implications and ideals of the American Dream. Chapter Two, 'English Postmodernism', examines the development of postmodern theories within English fiction. In particular it discusses the ideas of History and Myth, as employed by such writers as Ian McEwan, Graham Swift, Peter Ackroyd, Angela Carter and Christine Brooke-Rose. The chapter also discusses the part played by the Booker Prize in the rise in commercial popularity of these writers as well as the acceptance of postmodern writing within a wider readership. Chapter Three, 'The Making of Liberty Horses', explores the ideas which went into the creation of my novel, namely the image of the circus, paranoia and social, political and sexual impotence, as well as the writers, including Patricia Duncker, Richard Brautigan and Don DeLillo and other artists, namely Andy Warhol, David Lynch and Wim Wenders, who directly influenced the work

Thesis (MA)--Stellenbosch University, 2013.
ENGLISH ABSTRACT: To write a life story the auto/biographer must reflect upon the past that was once experienced. When presented with this task of depending on memory and narrative, the auto/biographer often finds himself/herself in the position of creating and imagining, rather than reflecting or presenting the past as it was lived. Fragmentation, forgetfulness, selection, (re)construction and imagination are often inextricably connected to Memory which results in the reliance on an unstable memory to access the past. This dissertation explores how postmodern auto/biographies, specifically the (auto/bio)graphic novel, acknowledges the difficulty of writing about the past when concerned with truth. The (auto/bio)graphic novel disrupts the notion of truth by blurring the boundaries between fact and fiction, resulting in a hybrid form where text and image, reality and imagination co-exist to create new, and often more significant pasts (that can serve the present).
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Om ‘n lewensverhaal te skryf, reflekteer die outo/biograaf op dít wat eens geleef was in die verlede. Deur hierdie proses, wat ‘n afhanklikheid van die geheue behels, vind die outo/biograaf homself/haarself gereeld in ‘n situasie waar hy/sy ontwerp en verbeel, eerder as om die verlede weer te gee soos dit beleef was. Fragmentasie, vergeetagtigheid, selektering, (her)konstruering en verbeelding is soms onskeibaar van Geheue wat dui op die afhanklikheid van ‘n onstabiele geheue in die skryf- en illustreer-prosesse van ‘n outo/biografie. Hierdie verhandeling ondersoek hoe postmoderne outo/biografieë, spesifiek die (outo/bio)grafiese roman, bewus is van die kwessies rondom die skryf van die verlede in verhouding tot waarheid. Die (outo/bio)grafiese roman ontwrig die idee van waarheid deur die grense tussen feit en fiksie te ondermyn. Gevolglik onstaan ‘n hibriede vorm van outo/biografie waar teks en beeld, realiteit en verbeelding gekombineer word om nuwe en meer beduidende verledes te skep (wat so ook die hede op nuwe maniere kan dien).

Рассмотрение данных аспектов в эпистемологическом горизонте произведения позволяет заключить, что они были обращены против ограничений эпического пространства и когнитивных искажений картины реальности в модернизированных формах романа. The subject of the article accounts for the didactic aspects by Golding’s novel as related to similar currents of thought in postmodern literature. The insights into these aspects within the epistemological horizon of the work in question leads to the conclusion that they are directed against the cognitive distortions of the picture of the world and restrictions of its ontological framework in modernistic novels.

Abstract:
Academic novel is by definition a cultural enterprise, but it can properly surprise the hostility of an extremely hierarchical environment. Concepts, ideas and archetypes are preserved and melted in the literary substance even with the help of irony and pastiche. Or, better said, irony and pastiche are means of avoiding the hostility of a milieu blocked in stereotypes and snobbery. Kingsley Amis’s novel ”Lucky Jim” absorbs modernist cultural ingredients in order to demythologize them in a postmodern fashion. Anyway, it seems that the process of demythization implies the subsequent process of re-mythization. The cultural heritage is unavoidable in the last phase of postmodernism. In 1975 we can hardly speak about cultural aphasia. The individual with a postmodernist Weltanschauung plays the satirical role of the knight errant in search of falsified (dragonized) modernist mentalities and cultural options. This paper will analyse the risks and methods of demythization and the reverse process in an attempt to understand the cultural logic of antimodernist approaches.
