Abstract:

ABSTRACTTo answer the question of the title of this article, the words ‘community’, ‘postmodern’, ‘mission’ and ‘paradigm’ are examined in turn and defined. The central place of the ‘local church’ in contemporary missiology is discussed, and the need for a missional and communitarian ecclesiology is argued with positive but critical reference to the approach of the Gospel and Our Culture Network of North America. The article ends by suggesting that ‘community’ can indeed be seen as a mission paradigm for postmodernity, and by posing some key questions facing the local church if it is to become a missional community.

Abstract:

Humanistic Paradigms of Education in the Postmodern Vision This study portrays the present social trends of the educational system against the background of the transformation of the social institutions that emerge as a result of the general changes to the social paradigm. These transformations have a direct impact on questions over classical humanistic ideals and educational goals relating to the social perceptions of the status of educated people. The aim of this study is to discuss the conditio postmoderna in the education system following the Declaration of Bologna, especially emphasising the thinking of K. Liessmann and G. Lipovetsky. This study also indicates the paradoxical effects of the reform process and compares them with classical ideals of the educated.

Abstract:

This paper focuses its study on the postmodern paradigm as the basis for the philosophy of cultural behavior of the Indonesian people during the COVID-19 Pandemic. This study aims to determine the relevance of the application of the postmodern paradigm as the basis for shaping and strengthening the national immunity of the Indonesian people. The approach used in this study is metodeliterature review. This approach is used because data collection and analysis is based on the literature study stage. The findings of this study are 1) the postmodern paradigm is a paradigm that appears as a critical reaction to the failure of modern projects, 2) rejection and denial of metanarations, monoliths, convention and arbitration systems, as well as rejection and denial of the objectification of truth, subject determination and limitation of freedom. are elements contained in the postmodern paradigm, 3) the postmodern paradigm is relevant to be applied as the basis for the philosophy of Indonesian people's behavior during the COVID-19 pandemic because it can help strengthen national values in Indonesian society.

Abstract:

This article aims to draw a portrait of the influence of cybernetics on soft science. To this end, structuralism, post-structuralism and postmodern philosophy will be successively analyzed in a perspective based on importing concepts stemming from the cybernetic paradigm (information, feedback, entropy, complexity, etc.). By focusing more specifically on the American postwar context, we intend to remind the audience that many soft science specialists were involved in the elaboration of this ‘new science’. We will then retrace the influence of the cybernetic paradigm on structuralism. Starting with the historic meeting between Roman Jakobson and Claude Lévi-Strauss, we will illustrate that structural phonology is directly inspired by discoveries stemming from the informational model. In the same perspective, the conceptual borrowings of psychoanalyst Jacques Lacan from cybernetics will be identified and analyzed. Then, we will address the matter of the relationship between postmodern theories and the cybernetic paradigm. The philosophical movement towards deconstruction, as well as Deleuze and Guattari’s philosophy, will be analyzed based on how they relate to this paradigm. We will also insist on the fact that the philosophy of Jean- François Lyotard’s La Condition postmoderne is fully in line with the epistemological revolution launched by cybernetics.

Abstract:

Abstrak Tulisan ini berupaya mengurai sekilas paradigma apa saja yang menjadi perhatian di riset akuntansi termasuk filosofi yang mendasarinya. Tulisan ini juga mencoba menawarkan gambaran riset akuntansi yang ada dan paradigma Islam sebagai sebuah paradigma tersendiri yang bisa digunakan dalam riset-riset akuntansi yang bagi sebagian peneliti termasuk dalam paradigma spiritualitas. Metode yang digunakan adalah telaah literatur atas beberapa tulisan tentang paradigm Islam dan riset akuntansi. Temuannya bahwa paradigm Islam sudah sejak lama menjadi kacamata tersendiri dalam riset-riset sosial, termasuk riset di bidang akuntansi. Namun, mayoritas peneliti cenderung mengklasifikasikan paradigma Islam ke ranah paradigma posmoderen atau paradigma spritualis. Abstract This article tries to extract a glace about any paradigm that concerned and also the philosophical basis. It offers the picture of accounting research and Islamic paradigm as a self paradigm that can implement in accounting researsches. It may consider as spiritual paradigm to some researcher. The method it this article is literature review on some writings about Islamic paradigm and accounting research. The finding shows that Islamic paradigm has well known as a specific tool in social research, as it is in accounting research. However, most researchers tend to classify it as postmodern or spiritual paradigm.

Abstract:

The article analyzes current state and mechanisms of geopolitical struggle in postmodern information age that has come. The author judges from assumption that entirely new postmodern society appeared with expansion of information technology, accompanied by cardinal changes in mechanisms of political power. Information technologies have become one of the most important factors contributing to the transformation of modern society from industrial to informational (post-industrial). In modern conditions, ensuring national and global security is a comprehensive process that includes not only measures to ensure information and economic security individually, but also such an integrated component as providing both information and economic security. The author suggests that modem geopolitical confrontation is carried out based on the synergetic paradigm. The main tool is information and energy influence on enemy system weaknesses using information space control, organizing negative information campaigns and applying economic sanctions. If the main focus of geopolitical struggle in modern era was forced expansion of the territory, in information postmodern age control over economic and information space has become priority among forms of geopolitical struggle. Military expansion of modern era becomes substituted by information and economic expansionism of postmodern using synergetic paradigm of geopolitical confrontation in order to control and capture the opponent's political space.

Abstract:

AbstractActivism can involve an individual or a collection of a few people. The practice of activism is often perceived as negative and destructive actions. In the literature of public relations, we will discover how the activist group pressure group categorized into the “source of trouble” and must be addressed by public relations practitioners. This perspective led to a bias that leads to marginalization of “activist public” in public relations literature. Marginalization process lasts through two methods: (1) the provision of which tend negative stigma, (2) the dominance of the paradigm of “corporate centric” in the literature of public relations. This article presents an alternative paradigm of the postmodern paradigm in view of the role and functions of the public activists.AbstrakAktivisme bisa melibatkan seorang individu ataupun kumpulan beberapa orang. Praktek aktivisme seringkali dipersepsikan sebagai tindakan yang negatif dan destruktif. Dalam literatur public relation, kita akan menemukan bagaimana kelompok aktivis dikategorikan kedalam kelompok penekan yang menjadi “sumber masalah” dan harus diatasi oleh praktisi public relations. Perspektif ini memunculkan bias yang mengarah pada marjinaliasi “publik aktivis” dalam literature public relation. Proses marjinalisasi berlangsung melalui dua cara: (1) pemberian stigma yang bertendensi negative, (2) adanya dominasi paradigma “corporate centric” dalam literatur public relation. Artikel ini menyajikan alternatif paradigma yakni paradigma postmodern dalam melihat peran dan fungsi publik aktivis.Keywords: Public Activist, Corporate Centric, Marginalization.

Abstract:

In the modern era, during the end of 17 century, appears empiric paradigm in the philosophy field. This paradigm emerges due to the critic towards mythical social thought. The next step appears positivism thought by Auguste Comte in 1830, which stated that Sociology based on science analogy that can be learned in the form of empiric data with exact calculation; out of this is rated as not scientific. The education field also trails the modern thought tradition, along with Comte’s positivistic thought. This modern era eventually has been opposed by postmodern philosophers. The frailties in the modern era are criticized by the appearance of the postmodern paradigm. Positivistic thought, in reality, could not reveal study beyond human and society, because this study is strong, and can only reach the ontologic stage, in substance of the object. While this could not be revealed because its level involves human and society’s way of thinking, primordial, tradition, and historical aspects, this study focuses on the weaknesses of positivistic research. Then it will present post-positivistic-postmodern research through Hermeneutika and Foucauldian Genealogy research.

Abstract:

Some scholars have declared metamodernism to be postmodernism’s successor, and Afrikaans novelist Ingrid Winterbach’s work has been argued to be an example of this distinct move away from the postmodern paradigm. However, in this article I present the alternative interpretation that Winterbach’s play, Spyt (Regret), rather represents postmodernism’s inability to give way to its successor. An investigation from a postmodern perspective leads me to conclude that, in both the text and performance of this play (directed by Brink Scholtz), an escape from the postmodern paradigm entails the end of all representation. Winterbach reduces all of the characters’ endeavours to surfaces which become parodies. All their experiences are commodified and any attempt at uncovering a deeper meaning to life is undermined by ridicule. Winterbach furthermore draws attention to some of her characters’ limited vocabulary and reliance on English loanwords. This culminates in a powerful scene where the loanword ‘awesome’ is repeated to the extent that it becomes simultaneously meaningless and indispensable; a tension that she does not resolve. In addition, the crossing of the boundary between life and death, which has been described as postmodernism’s final frontier, is portrayed by relying on an obsolete narrative. The play therefore suggests a postmodern impasse, rather than a move towards a new paradigm. an a move towards a new paradigm.

Abstract:

European scientific tradition distinguishes between modern and postmodern subcultural paradigms. Contrary to that, the issue of youth subcultural paradigms in Russian research tradition is still open. The specificity of the Russian subcultures is that they trace their origin either in Europe or the USA. In view of this, it is important to identify the features of European cultural phenomena that are present in the Russian cultural space. The European paradigm approach is introduced through the works of D. Hebdige and D. Muggleton. Paradigm features of subcultural analysis offered by these scholars provide the basis for analysis of the Russian empirical material. In particular, the study takes into account such characteristics as the presence / absence of a border between subcultures, the presence / absence of the ideology of a subculture, the fixity / fluidity of subcultural identity, the presence / absence of the influence of mass media on subcultural identity, the presence / absence of capitalist values in the subculture, the presence / lack of protest potential in subcultures. Interviews with representatives of the first and second waves of the Samara graffiti subculture became the empirical material of the study. We identified paradigmatic characteristics in the first and second waves of the subculture and compared them. The results obtained allow concluding that the Russian subcultural space has its own specifics, and the subcultural paradigms of both the first and second waves are of a hybrid nature, containing features of both modern and postmodern paradigms.

Abstract:

The main intention of this text is to present three inter-connected projections of the current global crisis of the postmodern capitalism: discursive, sociological and cultural/political. Discursive projection is considering the crisis of the postmodern capitalism through the perspective of the discursive paradigmatic restructuring (social link), sociological projection is giving interpretation of the postmodern social economy paradigm (society of knowledge), whilst the cultural/political projection is discussing the postmodern ideological forms of everyday life (cultural capitalism). In the last instance, all three are raising a question: Is there any good alternative?

Abstract:

- After describing the context in which the ‘quadrilateral'of Ardigň was conceived as an innovative gnoseological tool aimed to characterize the rising Italian Health Sociology in comparison with the much more well established tradition of the Northern American and British Medical Sociology, the essay tries to trace its cultural origins: which are found, at the level of scientific debate, in the ‘great coupure' or epistemological turning point of the Thirties, which Ardigň considers the framework from which to move; and, on the other side, in the micro-macro debate which characterized the sociological discipline during the Seventies and the Eighties with the opposition between the Sociologies of the subjective action versus the Sociologies of the social system, and the attempt to get over it by making a ‘paradigm of exit from the postmodern' which could deal in depth with the intrinsic double face and the ambivalence of the social stuff. In the last part, the developments of the ‘quadrilateral'are traced in the attempts of further elaboration by its critical application to different fields of the Sociology of Health (health care systems, health reforms, quality of health care services, health inequalities) which shape an emerging new paradigm of connectionist type.Keywords: "quadrilateral", Sociology of Health, Medical Sociology, ambivalence, connectionist paradigm, postmodern.Parole chiave: "quadrilatero", sociologia della salute, medical sociology, ambivalenza, paradigma connessionista, postmoderno.

Abstract:

El siguiente texto describe los orígenes de la psicología discursiva, corriente alternativa a la hegemonía del paradigma cognitivista en psicología. El contexto epistemológico desarrollado se origina en el giro lingüístico, continúa con el construccionismo social y la psicología social construccionista y finaliza con el análisis del discurso. Dicho marco explica las características distintivas de la psicología discursiva en relación a las otras corrientes y escuelas de psicología. Asimismo, los conceptos psicológicos y en particular el concepto de identidad, abordados desde la psicología discursiva, experimentan un giro no solo en su abordaje metodológico sino también en su ontología, adquiriendo una esencia discursiva. Finalmente, se propone un ensamblaje de la psicología discursiva con la antropología postmoderna para generar un nuevo concepto de identidad cultural y para esbozar un posible desarrollo de la psicología discursiva hacia una nueva psicología cultural postmoderna. This paper describes the origins of discursive psychology, alternative to the hegemony of cognitive psychology paradigm in current psychology. The epistemological framework developed originates in the linguistic turn, continues with the social constructionism and social constructionist psychology and ends with discourse analysis. This framework explains the hallmarks of discursive psychology in relation to other schools and schools of psychology. The psychological concepts and in particular the concept of identity seen from discursive psychology experienced a shift not only in its methodological approach but also in its ontology, acquiring a discursive essence. Finally, an assembly of discursive psychology and postmodern anthropology aims to generate a new concept of cultural identity and to outline the possible development of discursive psychology into a new postmodern cultural psychology.

Abstract:

Postmodern architectural products that can be described as kitsch have become rapidly consumed objects because they have appealed to the whole society. As a demand stimulating, easily comprehensible, and rapidly consumable product, kitsch has gained an important place in postmodern culture and architecture. These features of kitsch have easily made it a paradoxical part of consumption culture. After the Neoclassical boom in the 18th century, architectural movements such as Eclecticism, Orientalism, and Historicism became widespread in the 19th century. Towards the end of the 20th century, these tendencies came to the fore again within the Postmodern paradigm, and new kitsch architectural structures have begun to be produced in these undertakings in accordance with the spirit of the period. Eclecticism which has become prominent again in postmodern architecture has been referred to as neo-eclecticism or eclectic populism and has been defined as a style that ‘complexity, uncertainty and contradictions’ are expressed, ‘references from history and symbolic elements are used. Together with various historical forms in the postmodern period, orientalist images have been also used. Images consisting of stylized views of the Western culture on the Orient and that are not based on an authentic eastern depiction have been used in the production of orientalist architectural form. In recent years, eclectic, kitsch, orientalist, neoclassical forms that are independent of context and time have been frequently encountered in architectural applications in also Turkey. On one hand, elements from Turkish culture have been used and on the other hand, architectural elements from foreign cultures have been preferred. It is seen that there have been contradictions between form and meaning in educational structures built in Turkey during the period that the paradigms of the Postmodern era have been dominant. In this study, it is aimed to read and analyze the concepts of kitsch, eclecticism, neoclassicism, orientalism in the postmodern paradigm on recent university buildings and campus portals. In line with this purpose, an extensive literature research was conducted within the scope of the study; in the case study, recent university buildings and portals were analyzed in terms of postmodernism, the historical periods and architectural elements they derived were determined.

Abstract:

Starting with an analysis of the significance of the French New Wave for postmodern cinema, this essay sets out to make a study of Paul Thomas Anderson’s Magnolia (1999) as the film that marks the beginning of what could be considered a paradigm shift in American cinema at the end of the 20th century. Building from the muchdebated passing of postmodernism, this study focuses on several key postmodern aspects that take a different slant in this movie. The film points out the value of aspects that had lost their meaning within the fiction typical of postmodernism—such as the absence of causality; sincere honesty as opposed to destructive irony; or the loss of faith in Lyotardian meta-narratives. We shall look at the nature of the paradigm shift to link it to the desire to overcome postmodern values through a recovery of Romantic ideas.

Se aborda un análisis que comienza con el examen de las aportaciones más importantes sobre la materia, de la centuria pasada, que pueden enmarcarse en el paradigma positivista, y finaliza con la influencia de las concepciones postmodernas en el estudio de la adoración a los emperadores. Así, se pretende mostrar de qué modo la interpretación del culto imperial está ligada tanto a la adscripción a determinadas escuelas historiográficas, como a las posturas individuales de cada historiador, marcadas por sus propias convicciones religiosas.Palabras clave: culto imperial, domus imperatoria, historiografía, paradigma interpretativo, religión romana.Abstract: This document presents a historiographical review of the most relevant publications in the 20th and 21st centuries in the cult to the Roman emperors and their domus. The study begins with an examination of the most important contributions on the subject matter that can be framed in the positivist paradigm and ends by exploring the influence of postmodern conceptions in the studies on emperor worship. The paper thereby aims to explain how the interpretation of the imperial cult is linked to both the affiliation with certain historiographical schools and to the individual positions of historians, marked by their own religious convictions.Key words: imperial cult, domus imperatoria, historiography, interpretative paradigm, Roman religion.

Abstract:

Alternative medicine consumption is examined as a paradigm case of postmodern consumption. Content analysis of advertisements and analysis of a survey of purchasers of such medicines demonstrate niche markets delineated by life style, an emphasis on symbolic value rather than use value and the use of such medicines as a means of self-assembly – all features predicted by theorists of postmodern society. However, purchasers are predominantly female, and age and gender distinguish different types of products purchased, purchase is not entirely symbolic and many purchases are made to be consumed by others, making it uncertain whether they are used for self-assembly. These results suggest modifications to theories of postmodern consumption are necessary.

Abstract:

This article is a response to David Elkind's “Behavioral Disorders: A Postmodern Perspective” (this issue). We suggest that Elkind's claim that a paradigmatic shift has occurred in the field of emotional and behavioral disorders is unwarranted, since multiple paradigms influence this area rather than a single monolithic view. Furthermore, we point out that Elkind's argument lies outside of the framework for understanding scientific paradigms proposed by Thomas Kuhn. Finally, we argue that postmodernism lacks the intellectual coherence and heuristic integrity necessary to qualify as a paradigm. We therefore find postmodernism without merit in advancing our understanding of emotional and behavioral disorders, clarifying issues facing the field, or improving practices.

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:

In public opinion it is accepted to distinguish three main stages (stasis) in the development of the European cultural consciousness, more precisely - three spiritual situations in the history of Europe - premodern, modern and postmodern. Religions have also undergone an epochal change in their paradigms here. As noted by the famous Swiss theologian Hans Küng, "in terms of religion, a paradigm shift means a change in the basic pattern, the basic structure, the basic model according to which one perceives himself, society, world and God." However, thinking about religious premodernity, modernity and postmodernity, we cannot temporarily and essentially relate these stages to the multi-denominational evolution of the spiritual life of the whole world, because these situations have not found a clear expression in the development of each of the religions that exist in it.

Abstract:

<p>An American philosopher, Thomas Samuel Kuhn (1922-1996) in his books, The Structure of Scientific Revolution (1962) and The Essential Tension; Selected Studies in Scientific Tradition and Change (1977) poses a paradigm of a universal foundation of science which uses a common fact, method, language and criteria. He does not think that even in the realm of the natural sciences, there are differences, more so that there is a paradigm in the humanities including the arts and literature. Kuhn, however, has established a new paradigm for the philosophy of science which he called “the sociology of science” or a social construction, which now is popular as a constructive paradigm. It is developed in the Critical Theory of Adorno, Horkheimer, and Habermas, and in the Postmodern Theory of Lyotard, Derrida, Foucault, and Baudrillard. The paradigm of the social-political and cultural discourses of the seventies, has developed from structuralism of Saussure and Levi Strauss to post-structuralism or deconstructionism of Jacques Derrida and Paul de Mann referring to contemporary or postmodern era. It rejects stable understanding, logocentrism, antibinary, and gives readers ways to understand a text. The methods used is interpretative paradigm, such as philology, Marxist, new historicism, structuralism, psychoanalysis, theory of acceptance, semiotics, deconstruction, and discourse analysis.</p>

Abstract:

The essay takes up the issue of postcolonial representation in terms of a critique of European modernism that has been symptomatic of much postcolonial theoretical debates in the recent years. It tries to enumerate the epistemic changes within the paradigm of postcolonial theoretical writing that began tentatively with the publication of Edward Said’s Orientalism in 1978 and has taken a curious postmodern turn in recent years with the writings of Gayatri Spivak and Homi Bhabha. The essay primarily focuses on Bhabha’s concepts of ambivalence and mimicry and his politics of theoretical anarchism that take the representation debate to a newer height vis-ŕ-vis modes of religious nationalism and Freudian psychoanalysis. It is interesting to see how Bhabha locates these within a postmodern paradigm.

Abstract:

The paradigm shifts from the 1950s to the 1980s in political science arebest explained with reference to the encounter with the Other, an encounterwhich has three stages: first, the self-confident representation of the Otherwhich is characteristic of modernity; second, the fear of and desire to controlthe Other which is characteristic of the end of modernity; and third, thehyperrealization and trivialization of the Other which is characteristic ofpostmodernity. This encounter with the Other takes place within a largerdiscourse context or episteme. The epistemic shifts, then, must also beconsidered.Paradigm ShiftFoucault’s concept of archaeology includes the idea that scientific systemsare valid within their own contexts. Thus each piece of historical data mustbe judged and assessed in its own stratum or context. In a less sophisticatedfashion, Kuhn has taken this idea of historical context and cultural relativismand come up with a theory of scientific revolution. Kuhn correctly identifiesthe science textbook genre as the received history of normal science, a genrewhich incorporates the myth of the steady cumulative process of science.The textbook mythology traces the history of great white men and greatexperiments as they contributed their energies to the irresistible march ofscientific progress. Kuhn demonstrates that Aristotelian dynamics or caloricthermodynamics are in fact internally systematic and scientific and are thereforejust as valid as contemporary dynamics or thermodynamics. In reference totheir “fit” with nature, an earth-centered astronomy is just as valid as a suncenteredastronomy. What happens is that when the questions change, andquestions are asked which strain an earth-centered astronomy, a paradigm ...

Abstract:

Abstract Aesthetic theory, as reflected in both contemporary cognitive (Patrick Colm Hogan) and more traditional structuralist criticism (H.G. Widdowson), points to the dynamics between familiarity and surprise as the driving force behind the pleasure we derive from reading fiction. This paper explains how Neil Gaiman’s works, particularly his novel Neverwhere, utilize genre expectations and reinvent mythologies in order to captivate audiences in the current age of unprecedented access to information and a rather superficial intertextuality. The paper draws on Brian Attebery’s analyses of the literature of the fantastic to place Gaiman within the context of both modernist and postmodernist legacies, while proposing that his works could be best understood as representative of the current cultural paradigm, sometimes labelled as the pseudo-modern or post-postmodernism. The discussion of the shifting paradigm is used as a backdrop for the scrutiny of the devices employed in Gaiman’s writing: the pre-modern focus on storytelling, prototypicality, modernist “mythic principle”, postmodernist textual strategies, and utilization of current technologies and mass-communication media.

Abstract:

The plays of Howard Barker are probably more fervently admired and resolutely disliked than those of any other British dramatist of his generation. Although we have twice published interviews with the playwright about his life and work – first in the original Theatre Quarterly, TQ40 (1981), and more recently in NTQ8 (1986) – subsequent articles in NTQ have tended to be critical of his achievements: we are therefore pleased to present here a view of two of his latest plays, The Last Supper and The Bite of the Night, which, while recognizing precisely those qualities for which Barker has often been attacked, suggests that there is a social as well as a highly theatrical purpose behind the ‘postmodern’ approach to theatricality here identified. Th e author, Günther Klotz, teaches and researches in English studies in Berlin, where he has published numerous critical studies and editions of British dramatists and other writers.

Abstract:

The cultural and spiritual repository of religion is an indispensable resource for shaping public and cultural life in a post-secular era. Although the floods of culturally intrigued ‘pilgrims’ and spiritually ‘captivated’ tourists have marked religious sites on nationwide cultural maps, religious sites have yet to achieve a holistic interpretative experience which will reveal the deeper meanings of ecclesiastical art. The absence of ‘holistic interpretations’ from European Christian churches, addressing the tangible and intangible (faith) aspect of Christian tradition, run the risk of undermining both the cognitive and emotive aspects of visitors. Following a thematic analysis on interpretations found at Orthodox, Catholic and Protestant churches in Europe, this article investigates how religious sites adapt different interpretational strategies to communicate their stories. The findings are discussed with reference to heritage practices found at religious sites expressed through two coexisting cultural ideologies: the prominent postmodern cultural paradigm, expressed through New Museology, and the religious cultural paradigm, expressing religious tradition and vision. The research concludes that the more content a denomination appears to be over the postmodern cultural paradigm of New Museology, the more likely it is to experiment with postmodern interpretative strategies. In this context, the article raises the question of whether museum theory is applicable to religious settings. The bottom line is that stakeholders’ ontological presuppositions are the catalyst of how religious history, tradition, and faith, are negotiated and presented in religious settings.

Abstract:

This paper tries to evaluates the Postmodern thought with special focus on the key concepts like self, God and World and values by the key postmodernist thinkers of this novel Philosophy. It tries to reflect on the system of philosophies in West that aspired to foreground the existence of man in some fixed universal and objective truths. The truth has always been founded upon some metaphysical rational ideal and the quest of human struggle has been to attain such a truth. Such human aspiration has seriously been questioned by postmodernist thinkers to bring forth a paradigm shift. This paper gives a glimpse into the remarkable shift of thought.

Abstract:

The paper investigates the religious language interpretation in the contemporary continental philosophic theology. The author presents the central role of the imagination and metaphor in theological language. The diacritical hermeneutics of Richard Kearney is analyzed as an example of the theological language transition from the theologics to theopoetics. Modifications in the theological language are associated with transformations in the understanding of theology itself, which becomes a topological and tropological study. It considers the interpretation of imagination in Kearney’s early works, his attempts to describe “paradigmatic shifts” in the human understanding of imagination in different epochs of Western history. The author highlights mimetic paradigm of the pre-modern imagination, productive paradigm of the modern imagination and parodic paradigm of the postmodern imagination. Analysis of Kearney’s “biblical” interpretation of imagination allows one to understand the imagination as the point of contact of God with humanity. She also considers how Ricoeur’s theory of metaphor influences the development of the poetic language in postmodern Christian theology and demonstrates that poetic and religious languages are brought together by an “imaginative variations”. The author argues that turning to imagination in religious language allows theological hermeneutics to move from the static to kinetic images of God.

Abstract:

Today it is possible to speak about a postmodern sociology. It is based on the number of provisions reflecting the general level of social and humanitarian knowledge as well the provisions formulated on the ground of the theoretical studies analysis on postmodernism performed. In its diverse manifestations the postmodern paradigm essentially turns into an independent cognitive and theoretical-ideological entity that influences mainly the development of the already existing sociological concepts and arises their new models or modalities. The mono-city is the element of the self-organising social being fabric that is the subject of social synergies. The cognitive and heuristic element of joining social, economic and political problems and the prospects for the development of single-tooth cities can be classified as "fractal". The social world consists of many things that are the processes of formation, and in fact are fractals. The degradation of modern Russia in the social, political and economic sense is an indicator of the destruction of single-tooth cities in the conditions of the modern socio-demographic structure within the framework of the postmodern "end of history".

Abstract:

In this study, the fragmentation as postmodernist narrative technique in Mohsin Hamid’s novel “How to get filthy rich in rising Asia” is examined. He uses structural inequalities, grammatically incorrect sentences, phrases and dependent clauses. The term fragmentation is coined by Bell Hooks to highlight the problem of “hierarchy of oppression” within the feminist paradigm. Fragmentation is the major thematic concern of postmodern art that sets new parameters for the narrative techniques of postmodern literature. Fragmentation in the literary work involves complexity on semantic level where the various words act as signifier and signified at the same time. Therefore, this study probes the fundamentals of fragmentation in the text that reflects the radical changes in the postmodern society and focuses on the little narratives that create fragmented truth and cause anarchy, uncertainty and chaos in the world.

Abstract:

This article deals with the problem of the design of the linguoemotive model of the epigraphs of a postmodern text. The research object is a postmodern text, the research subject is the linguoemotive models of epigraphs in modern English literary discourse. The material of the research is the postmodern novel The French Lieutenant’s Woman by John Fowles. The research methodology is based on the anthropocentric paradigm in the framework of communicative linguistics. Modelling is a process of the design and application of models. The aim of text modelling is to analyse and describe transfer, perception and interpretation of texts and situations verbally and non-verbally. Linguoemotive modelling of a postmodern text can be characterized as fragmented, incomplete, having different levels of generalization and interpretation. A situational emotive component that is presented linguistically enhances the sense of a text. The specificity of the novel The French Lieutenant’s Woman by John Fowles consists in emotively loaded epigraphs. Interaction of a text and a situation on the basis of emotion-modified propositions reflects the author’s idiostyle.

Abstract:

The paper breaks down certain methodological aspects of the philosophy of Paul Feyerabend as well as focusing upon the problem of how the status of scientific knowledge has changed within the concept of epistemological anarchism in relation to changes in the scientific paradigm. Is has been postulated that in the framework of the postmodern paradigm the problem of scientific knowledge is inevitably linked to the problem of language as a means of the objectification of knowledge. The missing metanarrative as a legal foundation for scientific knowledge and the transition from the concept of ‘broad narratives’ to a paralogical scope of complex semantic games are an immediate cause of changes in scientific methodology. Therefore, numerous theories, which are conceived by the principle of proliferation, stimulate the development of brand new concepts. Besides, the constellation of many a rivaling theory enables to scrutinize the feasibility and justifiability of particular theoretical constructs. As a consequence, the principle of proliferation espoused by the philosophy of Feyerabend is both a way to bypass binary oppositions associated with classical philosophy and an unavoidable challenge as far as the criteria of the scientific value of postmodern epistemology are concerned.
