Full textAbstract:
One of the most important elements of postmodernity is the growing awareness of the diversity and potential incommensurability of the various forms of cultural life that sustain groups and individuals and addresses the postmodernist denial that postmodernism is inherently apathetic or hostile to social or political action. Postmodernism is a reaction to the epistemological ideals of modernity. Postmodernism is based on a limited human point of view, and thus becomes a prisoner of its own subjectivity, resulting in two main characteristics, namely pluralism and relativism. This study analyzes the postmodern view that is implemented in Christian education in Indonesia. The method used in this article is a literature study by using philosophical biblical glasses to analyze postmodern views. The result is that postmodern moral education (such as transcendentalism and idealism) has some useful and some negative aspects that should be considered for planning moral education and curriculum development for Christian education in Indonesia.
Satu elemen paling penting dari postmodernitas adalah tumbuhnya kesadaran akan keragaman dan potensi ketidakterbandingan dari berbagai bentuk kehidupan budaya yang menopang kelompok dan individu dan membahas penolakan postmodernis bahwa postmodernisme secara inheren apatis atau bermusuhan dengan tindakan sosial atau politik. Postmodernisme merupakan reaksi terhadap cita-cita epistemologis modernitas. Postmodernisme didasarkan pada sudut pandang manusia yang terbatas, dan dengan demikian menjadi tawanan subyektivitasnya sendiri, menghasilkan dua karakteristik utama, yaitu pluralisme dan relativisme. Kajian ini menganalisis pandangan postmodern yang diimplementasikan pada pendidikan Kristen di Indonesia. Metode yang digunakan pada artikel ini adalah studi literatur dengan memanfaat kacamata biblis filosofis untuk menganalisa pandangan postmodern. Hasilnya adalah pendidikan moral postmodern (seperti transendentalisme dan idealisme) memiliki beberapa aspek yang berguna dan beberapa negatif yang harus dipertimbangkan untuk perencanaan pendidikan moral dan pengembangan kurikulum pendidikan Kristen di Indonesia.

The various meanings of the terms ‘postmodernism’ and ‘postmodernity’ are traced; in various European languages these mean different things. Postmodernist discussion in the various arts is not synchronous. Postmodernism can be seen as the cultural expression of the times we supposedly live in, but are the achievements of modernity gone for ever?

Full textAbstract:
In this article, I discuss the implications of postmodernism on religious thought, with special reference to Islamic thought. Firstly, I discuss the nature and characteristics of postmodernist thinking, and the different schools of thought/’postmodernisms’ that fall under that rubric. My contention is that postmodernism is a response to modernism rather than religion, although it has implications on religious thought. Secondly, I examine and compare the points of contention between modernism and post-modernism. I then argue that the differences are largely due to the privileging of nature and reasoning of modernists and the privileging of human/social and psychology of postmodernists. These, in turn, have implications on their metaphysics and epistemology, respectively. Thirdly, I provide an Islamic perspective on the modernist-postmodernist discourse, showing that the Islamic perspective transcends the natural-social divide, and how the tripartite relationship between God, man and nature, informs the discourse. The philosophy of language is also brought up in the discussion, where I suggest that Islam accepts the dual role of languages, that is, conveying the meaning in its literal sense (aka modernist), as well as being a symbol and an indirect reference (aka postmodernist). Finally, a close comparison is made between postmodernism and Islam, where both their incompatibilities as well as possible points of convergence are discussed.

O presente artigo faz uma abordagem histórica do sistema de governo do Império Romano e de como problemas que envolviam o sistema de governo e cidadãos eram resolvidos. O trabalho descreve ainda as relações estabelecidas com nações de toda a bacia do Mediterrâneo, o impacto econômico, político e social gerado em razão das políticas imperialistas e das guerras de conquista de novos territórios, o pensamento político e judicial, a formação de um modelo de “constitucionalismo” característico do mundo romano, a relação com a Ciência Jurídica da época, bem como alguns institutos do direito civil e do direito urbanístico. Diante disso, o trabalho visa oferecer uma reflexão como o direito romano, buscando equacionar problemas sociais, econômicos e políticos da antiguidade, pode muito bem servir de inspiração para os problemas da pós-modernidade. A pesquisa é bibliográfica, exploratória, documental e descritiva. Ao cabo da investigação, concluiu-se que, voltando no tempo, é possível entender se e como problemas semelhantes da contemporaneidade urgente foram tomados e abordados nessa extraordinária experiência jurídica cujo legado hoje é precioso. De tal forma, muitas das soluções encontradas para aquela época podem servir de modelo para o Direito, para a Ciência Jurídica e para o mundo pós-modernos.

Full textAbstract:
WITH THE DECLINE of a modernist techno-rationalist view of knowledge, teachers are no longer knowledge dispensers but dialogue facilitators who reject the notion of one ‘right’ view. Although postmodernism comes in a variety of forms e.g constructivism, it does have some central features. There are both strengths and weaknesses in the postmodernist approach to life and in the way it applies to education. Christian teacher education programmes should be transformative, vital and transcendent, based in a vision of humanity which rejects both the oppressive impotence of modem scientism and the ego-exalting autonomy of postmodernity.

Full textAbstract:
This article is an attempt to investigate the various meanings of the words "postmodernity", "postmodernism" and "postmodern". ft also assesses the significance of these words and of the concepts that they express for criminology. The paper is divided in three parts. The first part tries to dispell important misunderstandings that have sprung in relation to postmodernism. The most significant of these is the belief that there is such a thing as a postmodernist "method" in the social sciences. The second part identifies the origin of the term "postmodern" and discusses various themes which are perceived to be characteristic of postmodern thought. These themes are: the present legitimation crisis, the internal reflexivity of scientific theory, discourse analysis and meta-language, social and cultural fragmentation and historical pessimism. The last part draws the consequences of the preceding analyses for the development of criminology.

Full textAbstract:
This paper examines the postmodernist critique of the scientific method in the specific context of adapted physical activity. Particular assumptions identified include (a) that truth must be approached through testing hypotheses, with acceptance of the most plausible explanation, (b) that underlying laws have general (if not universal) application, and (c) that the observer approaches an experiment free of bias and without interacting with the subject. Postmodernists also argue, less convincingly, that users of the scientific method are committed to reductionism, are tyrannized by the mean, and are unable to quantitate important components of disability. The overall critique raises consciousness regarding the limitations of scientific methodology and points to ways this methodology can be improved. But too often, postmodernists offer few viable alternatives to the scientific method. Too often, those who espouse postmodernism resort to convoluted semantics, using poorly defined words of uncertain etymology. Such an approach does little to help the human condition and should be rejected as a new gnostic heresy.

The present study focuses on one of the contemporary American fairy tale movies to analyze the postmodernist aspects present in these movies. The researcher has selected the movie Tangled released in 2010 for this purpose, it is a remake of the famous fairy tale Rapunzel recorded by famous fairy tale writers, Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm. One of the most prominent patterns of analyzing the movies through the lens of postmodernism is the framework by Kevin Paul Smith, in his book The Postmodern Fairytale, Folkloric Intertexts in Contemporary Fiction. He has presented eight elements of intertextuality to examine the intertextual elements of the older fairy tales present in contemporary literature (2007). Analysis reveals these eight elements in Tangled (2010) that are evident in traces of postmodernity in the movie.

Viviamo un cambiamento d’epoca che sta radicalmente trasformando sia l’identità dell’Occidente sia ponendo nuove e radicali sfide al cristianesimo chiamato ad inculturarsi di nuovo in una realtà che da esso si sta progressivamente allontanando. L’articolo in una prima parte ricostruisce alcuni tratti salienti della postmodernità e dell’esperienza religiosa postmoderna per poi soffermarsi su alcune questioni decisive per l’annuncio credibile del vangelo. Preso atto dell’inadeguatezza di alcune rappresentazioni trasmesse di Dio, della Chiesa, e della fede, l’articolo cerca di valorizzare alcune istanze della sensibilità contem-poranea. Soprattutto insiste sulla necessità di rimettere al centro la domanda di senso e su-perare la crisi della ragione per ritrovare per ricostruire l’alleanza tra fede e ragione ricono-scendo nel logos lo strumento per annunciare il vangelo e dialogare con le culture.

Full textAbstract:
The Post-Modern East, or How Can We Be ‘Post-Modern without Postmodernity’ and without Lyotard? Despite the idea of the universality of ‘postmodernism’ as a new stage in the Western World, it is now clear that the term was coined, launched, adopted or rejected differently in different places, along local historical lines. Hence, we have not only an American and a European postmodernism, but also an East European postmodernism, what we shall call the Post-Modern East. We delineate its characteristics based on a survey that looked at how East European cultures adopted and discussed postmodernism around the moment that their socialist regimes were collapsing. We focus the analysis on a particular but synthetising version of the ‘postmodern’, specifically that of Lyotard. We hold that Lyotard is one of the few intellectuals who succeeded in thinking of politics, sociology, epistemology and aesthetics as tying together to form ‘postmodernity’; and that a few European intellectuals were ready to think of ‘postmodernity’ an epistemic challenge, beyond the distinction between soft and hard sciences. A fortiori, Eastern European cultures seized ‘postmodernism’ as an American fetish and identified the breakdown of totalitarianism as the achievement of happy ‘postmodernisation’. Thirty years later, these countries have realised that by embracing a certain version of ‘postmodern’, as they had done by the end of the 1980s, was generally a mimetic utopian gesture that needs revaluation.

Il porno in Internet è diventato, nelle ultime due decadi, uno dei più floridi business al mondo, fondato sulla presenza in rete di decine di migliaia di pagine che ricevono milioni e milioni di visualizzazioni ogni giorno. Di conseguenza, nello stesso lasso di tempo, pubblicazioni e saggi riguardo l'argomento sono aumentati esponenzialmente, e molti sono gli autori che hanno cercato di illuminare vari aspetti di questo fenomeno. Nel panorama junghiano, il libro di Giorgio Tricarico Lost Goddesses: a Kaleidoscope on Porn, rappresenta un unicum, poiché ad oggi non vi si trovano lavori direttamente dedicati all'argomento. Ma anche nel contesto più allargato del crescente numero di pubblicazioni sul tema, Lost Goddesses si pone in una posizione raramente occupata da altri autori: quella di considerare il fenomeno del porno di massa non come un fenomeno strettamente clinico, ma come un simbolo complesso della nostra epoca, e un fenomeno emblematico della postmodernità.

Full textAbstract:
La figura di Cristo, cuore della fede cristiana, è esplosa in postmodernità in nuove e strane cristologie, alternative alla Chiesa e in competizione con lei. Catturato nella mistico-esoterica galassia New Age, la figura di Cristo è vista ora come quella della gnostico-cosmica Sofia , ora come il Messia che porta una nuova rivelazione, ora come il Principio interior di guarigione integrale e integrazione universale, ora come la Leggenda fantastica e populista che ritiene confusi ricorsi magici. Sulla figura religiosa e storica di Cristo stanno tutti i tipi di alegorizanti interpretazioni, come quella che lo vede come il ricercatore ed il maestro della saggezza salvatrice . L’atteggiamento della Chiesa nei confronti di tali cristologie mobili è quello di capire come espressione di una cultura disorientata e, in dialogo conloro e in ricupero di suoi punti di luce, offrirne la “diakonia della verità” circa il Cristo della grande tradizione apostolica.

Abstract The present paper aims to investigate, in brief, the controversial relationship between postmodernism and modernism; to outline, synthetically, the specific procedures of conceiving theatre performance in postmodernity; to analyze the performance narrative that, in postmodern era, reveals the indicible and the existential fragmentation. The research is carried out taking into consideration the end of postmodernism which was announced since the middle of the first decade of the 21st century. At the same time, besides the attempt to observe the phenomenon in its theatrical implications, the study pursues to delineate the decontextualization of theatricality from theatrical space and its recontextualization in sociopolitical space. In conclusion, the perspective beyond the end of postmodernity from which theatricality is evaluated intends to avoid the partisan thinking that any attempt to treat postmodernity requires.

Full textAbstract:
The article polemicizes about the state of Russian Postmodernist culture in general and the country’s Postmodernist literature, in particular. The author finds that contemporary culture exists at the intersection of two paradigms: a dwindling Postmodernism and a nascent Metamodernism, giving rise to new literary vectors and phenomena. Mass culture appropriates Postmodernist methods and techniques: irony, intertextuality, and play-mode rethinking of classical subjects and ideas. The author observes a transformation of Postmodernism into an assembly line for mass production and consumption. At the same time, Metamodernism inevitably becomes an alternative cultural paradigm. Analyzing the cultural situation, the author references works by the writer V. Pelevin (his novels Generation P, iPhuck 10), rapper poet Oxxxymiron (M. Fyodorov), and other prominent figures of modern Russian culture. The article’s major focus is on Postmodernist irony.

Full textAbstract:
“Business Ethics and Postmodernism: A Response” considers the contribution of Ronald Green, David Schmidt, Clarence Walton, Ron Duska, and Richard Neilsen to a special issue of Business Ethics Quarterly entitled “Business Ethics and Postmodernism.” This essay poses a fundamental question: to what extent can a position which characterizes itself as postmodern be ethical? The paper argues on philosophical grounds that the debate between modernity and postmodernity is a debate over the very possibility of an ethic. The paper concludes that although Jacque Derrida has made the most convincing argument for an ethic within postmodernity, it remains skeptical because such an argument simply presupposes assumptions which owe their origin to modernity.

Full textAbstract:
<p>The current stage of culture development is usually defined as post-postmodern. Although this term is not well established and is interpreted differently, in any case it involves the overcoming of postmodernism. In Russian literature we should mention Victor Pelevin among the authors, whose works demonstrate the post-postmodernist tendencies most clearly. The evolution of his prose testifies that the postmodern worldview and the very mechanism of postmodern writing has become the subject of critical reflection in the late works of the writer. The novel by V. Pelevin "Empire V" (2006) is the material of the analysis in the article. The aim of the study is to reveal the nature and the forms of postmodernism reflection manifested in this work. During the analysis the authors established that Pelevin plays with a popular genre of mass culture - a novel about vampires, using it as a kind of metaphorical way to clarify the nature of postmodern literature, which appropriates, absorbs and exploits the forms, ideas and motives earlier developed in culture. Postmodernists, like vampires, borrow information from different sources and use "someone else's blood" for their own purposes. Combining the "languages" of mass and elite cultures, activating the intertextual links, Pelevin eventually pursues antipostomodernist goals: he reveals the totality of the simulativity, proves that mass culture is ready to absorb postmodernism, and turn it into an empty signifier. This can be defined as a kind of cultural reflection, as a form of the self-reflection and writer’s cognition on the state of modern culture.</p>

Full textAbstract:
The article verifies the presence of postmodernism and post-law as a product of socio-psychological foundation derived from it. In this regard, the validity of using the state of frustration as a psychological phenomenon to criticize modernity and explain the origin of postmodernity is considered. That is, the underlying excitement that, according to postmodernists, arose as a result of a total crisis and triggered mechanisms for revaluation of values, breaking stereotypes, changing role behavior and abandoning implicit ideas. As a result, it was revealed that disillusionment is artificially used by post-classics to justify the concepts defended. The socio-psychological destabilization occurred not due to the collapse of the ideals of modernity, but due to the immersion of mankind into an unknown virtual-digital environment, the knowledge of which will change society and at the same time return it to a position of equilibrium. However, the postmodern ignores reality, refutes modernity, blames it for the crisis and overthrows the current knowledge of law, biased constructs post-law from anti-values and brings it to life, thereby forming another center of turbulence.

The article examines the implications of the discourse about postmodernity. Postmodernity is analyzed as a complex discursive figure. Within the discourse about postmodernity three levels are distinguished: the postmodern condition, postmodernism, and reflection of the postmodern condition. Special attention is paid to globalization and the problem of the enforcement of modern projects in East-European societies, particularly Serbia. These societies are termed object-societies, while their modification of modernity is called eastmodernity. The author's answer to the complexity of the postmodern condition is a conception of the politics of subsistence.

Full textAbstract:
In both the academic community and the community at large there has been much talk about the impact of postmodernism on particular fields of study and on our ways of thinking about issues. Very little consideration has been given to how postmodernist thinking potentially impacts on early childhood education. This paper looks at how postmodernist thinking can disrupt traditional beliefs about child development and appropriate practice by asserting a more critical and sceptical approach to knowledge and truth statements. Postmodernism opens out the possibility for multiple points of view, for a plurality of voices to be heard. When taken on board, the impact of postmodernism can be simultaneously daunting and liberating. Early childhood educators need to understand the basic tenets so that they are not left out of the debate.

Full textAbstract:
The current paper is titled Uncertainty of theme in the postmodernist fiction: The case of Pynchon's Entropy. It aims at clarifying how features of postmodernist text have an impact on theme production. Language is alienated as it does not refer to the conscious world. However, it refers to unconscious world which is characterized by cryptic and it does not make a sense of the world. The scope of the study throws light on the features of postmodernism to show how psychological factors are employed in the text and the functions of its stylistic features. It is hypothesized that damage in man's psyche has influenced postmodernist short story. The paper consists of four sections; the first section discusses the term Postmodernism as a concept. It explores how postmodernism views history and culture. The second section discusses the psychic elements employed in the short story to project man’s psyche under the pressure of conflicting great powers. The third sheds light on the stylistic features, writers have used at variance with the ones used in realist and modernist texts to gain particular needs. The conclusion recapitulates the finding of three sections. Finally, the paper provides recommendations for further researches.

Full textAbstract:
The article is devoted to the analysis of the current state of the theory of pedagogy, which is moving to a new stage of its development - the stage of postmodernity. On the example of the analysis of textbooks on pedagogy published in modern Germany, the author examines the characteristic features of postmodern pedagogy. Based on the content analysis, the representation of postmodern problems in textbooks is established, a classification of the approaches of the authors of textbooks to the reflection of this topic in different parts of the didactic apparatus of textbooks is carried out. Three leading directions, which are the pedagogical projection of the ideas of postmodernism, are characterized in detail. These include: clarification of the conceptual differences between modernity and postmodernity and their pedagogical projections; ideas that contain criticism of metanarrations; the issue of human identity in the era of pluralism of ideas and forms of their objectification. The conclusion is made about the weakening of theorists' attention to postmodernism problems, while postmodernism practices tend to spread.

Postmodernism is often virtually equated with French poststructuralism, and seen as anti-rationalist and anti-humanist, even downright nihilist. However, the idea of difference that is central to much poststructuralist thinking can also be used to construct a model of postmodernism/postmodernity that avoids the endless denials of poststructuralism while allowing the establishment of a grip on the distinctions of our own postmodern period from an earlier modernity.

Full textAbstract:
This paper addresses language use in Alobwed’epie’s the Death Certificate from a postmodernist perspective. It seeks to show that the author of the selected novel, like many postcolonial African writers, attempts to assert his culture through some sort of indigenisation and intentional flouting of old canons of literature. Given that the present paper is anchored on postmodernism, the postmodernist theory the author’s is used to explain Alobwed’Epie’s perception of life and literature to assert his cultural identity through some sort of linguistic revolution. As a matter of fact, language is used in a very carefree and innovative way in order to escape the idealistic dictum of literary norms. Indigenisation is then regarded as a postmodernist technique, which aims at valorising the African identity and rejecting all the metanarratives of how a work of art should be produced. Obviously, in the present article postmodernism are both a theoretical framework and an object of study. The use of local languages and other languages like Pidgin in the novel under study has demonstrated that the then marginalised languages have moved from the margin towards the Centre and become established languages of African literature. The paper briefly discusses the emergence of postmodernism and shows how the traditional conventions have been deconstructed and substituted for new ideologies that have revolutionised the African literary landscape. It equally reviews selected previous works on language in African novels as well as on postmodernism that came up in the late 1950s as revolutionary responses to preceding movements. The paper ends with an account of the linguistic features of postmodernism used in the novel.

Full textAbstract:
This article examines the modern Indonesian women’s prose and its interaction with the elements of postmodernist paradigm. The object of this research is the novelistic writing of the prominent Indonesian author Dewi Lestari on the example of the novel "“Supernova: The Knight, The Princess, and The Falling Star” (Supernova: Ksatria, Puteri, dan Bintang Jatuh, 2001), which is part of the series “Supernova” (2001-2016). Fiction, as the “median” field in literature, embraces various codes of language art. Relying on the tested patterns of popular literature, it can also appeal to postmodernism. In the latter case, the works are characterized by the presence of deconstructive and game (including simulation) principles. The example of application of the codes of fiction and postmodernism is the novel of under review. An important role in the research is played by the literary-theoretical, typological, and descriptive methods. The work of Dewi Lestari has not yet been considered from the perspective of postmodernist game technique and involvement of the concept of simulacrum. An attempt to do this on the example of her most famous works defines the novelty of this research, as well as the noticeable place of postmodernism in Eastern literatures makes relevant it analysis based on the original Indonesian literature. Reference to the poetics of postmodernism through borrowing the simulation game technique allowed Lestari to create a commercially successful product. The perception of the text by each reader in accordance with their worldview, and engagement in the game proposed by Lestari, correspond to the ideas of the postmodernist interpretation of the literary text, as well as to the laws of the market. This is why modern Indonesian writers refer to the postmodernist paradigm.

Full textAbstract:
The validity of the operative model of legal interpretation in the face of postmodernismDue to postmodernist philosophy is becoming summary increasingly popular this article concerns the validity of a legal interpretation model commonly used in modern times with regard to the postmodernist point of view. Although this problem is widely described in Western literature, in Poland, on the contrary, it is gaining popularity only among philosophers of law. The aim of the article is to present the critical approach of postmodernist philosophy to existing order and demonstrate its attitude towards interpretation of the law. It should be noted that postmodernism has no ambition of constructing its own model of legal interpretation, but comments on and reviews all that has been said on this issue in the legal theory and philosophy of law. This is due to the fact that postmodernism is hostile to all methodologies, modelling theories and theoretical constructions. On the other hand, based on the general assumptions of postmodern philosophy, a postmodern view on the interpretation of the law can be derived. The article discusses deconstructionism, hermeneutics and intertextuality as methods of creating the meaning of a legal text during interpretation, acceptable by postmodernism. The study also presents criticism of the assumption of rational legislator proposed by legal positivism. In this respect postmodernism makes a real revolution in the field of law enforcement, prioritizing the interpreter instead of the legislator, and the creation of a legal text meaning during the process of legal interpretation in place of meaning determination.

Full textAbstract:
The study focuses on the manifestation of the main literary trends – postmodernism and post-postmodernism – in the novels of the contemporary American writer J. Franzen, which has determined the purpose of the paper – to identify, characterize and analyze the leading features of the new literary tendencies that have obtained original interpretation in the writer’s literary creative activity. The article gives a brief overview of philosophical, cultural and literary criticism studies of both home and foreign scholars, which describe the vectors of development of the literary process at the present stage, pose various hypotheses with reference to the definition of these vectors, characterize them and suggest new terms for their nomination. The postmodernist and post-postmodernist tendencies are explored on the concrete material of the novels The Corrections and Purity by J. Franzen, in which they receive original interpretation and serve the purpose of impersonating the author’s ideas, unfolding the main themes, creating the characters and expressing the narration modality. The key method of research used in this paper is the method of interpretive analysis, which involves identifying content and semantic dominants and interpreting a work of fiction within a certain literary context, determining the inclusion of this work in the system of current literary movements and trends. The interpretive analysis of the works under investigation revealed various tendencies typical for the literary process of the post-postmodern era on the whole, the most important of which are the following: no clear distinction between postmodernism and post-postmodernism; realization and sophisticated interaction of elements of such new trends as metamodernism, cosmodernism, digimodernism, and automodernism. The results of the study can be used in literary analysis of modern fiction, and specifically in research works of different levels and in teaching at philological faculties of universities. The study argues that the novels by J. Franzen demonstrate the specific features of postmodernism and post-postmodernism, which reject the postmodernist principles and at the same time follow them, return to the realistic traditions and actualize new literary tendencies.

The term postmodernism is impossible to define in the general case; it can be interpreted only with reference to specific fields of work or study. Even when referring to special education or behavioral disorders, however, people are free to define virtually anything they wish as postmodern. Because postmodernism is a vague concept and a pervasive contemporary movement, we all may be, in some sense, postmodernists.

Full textAbstract:
Currently, the literary process is witnessing the emergence of a new trend — post-postmodernism, developing along several lines. The article offers a review of theoretical works of Russian and foreign authors, devoted to the study of post-postmodernism, its main characteristics, and terminology. On the basis of the novel "The Circle" (2013), written by the American writer Dave Eggers, which has not yet become the subject of study in Russian literary criticism,the authors explore the main features of metamodernism as one of the directions of post-postmodernism. The methodology of the study is based on the principles of interpretive analysis and comparative historical observation. The analysis of several contemporary English-language novels suggests that post-postmodernism attempts to reconstruct what has been deconstructed in postmodernism while retaining some of its attitudes. A detailed examination of Eggers' novel shows that it exhibits both postmodernist (a complex combination of genre forms) and metamodernist characteristics. A closer look at Eggers' text shows that it exhibits both postmodernist (a complex combination of genre forms) and metamodernist features (rejection of the postulate of ' the death of the author' and explication of the authorial position, post irony, neorealism, an appeal to ‘new sincerity’). The results of this study may be used in further research in this field, as well as in the development of teaching material for philological disciplines at universities.

Full textAbstract:
We examine tensions that arise in applying postmodernism to feminist research. First, we consider epistemological tensions generated in the process of deconstructing existing knowledge and constructing new knowledge that benefits women. Second, we examine six ethical issues that reflect the tensions in feminist practice as we attempt to justify the dialectic between knowledge and power. In keeping with a postmodernist perspective, we pose these six issues as questions: Is feminist postmodernism “postfeminist”? Does postmodernist language mystify feminist practice and goals? Are qualitative methods more feminist than quantitative ones? Must feminists have a liberatory purpose in their research? Is the personal too personal? Whose aims are served, feminists or their collaborators? We conclude that by adopting a postmodern feminist perspective, we can embrace the struggle between knowledge and practice rather than privilege one over the other.

Full textAbstract:
The article discusses the conceptual foundations of ideas about the crisis that have developed in the postmodern theories. The hypothesis of the study is the assumption that the philosophical grounds of denying of the substantial nature of the crisis of culture in postmodernism include a specific understanding of culture and values, as well as a special attitude to social reality. It is shown that postmodern philosophy is characterized by a new understanding of culture in the meaning of "rhizome" (J. Deleuze and F. Guattari) – a chaotic unstable interweaving of historically changeable values. Since in such a culture the new order is chaos ("chaosmos" (J. Deleuze), the crisis becomes indistinguishable due to the impossibility of distinguishing the ordered from the chaotic. In the absence of a culture with constant values, in a postmodern rhizome culture, the decision to fill the values with content is made by the person himself, which leads to the instrumental and subjective nature of the crisis of culture – to consider a crisis that is convenient at one time or another. Comparison of the classical and postmodernist interpretations of the crisis showed that their difference is associated with a different understanding of the correlative categories of norm / deviation. From the standpoint of classical philosophy, a crisis is a departure from the norm. Accordingly, the crisis of culture is understood as a deviation from the normal (fixed in tradition) functioning of culture. In this regard, it is viewed either in a positive way as a marker of the need for evolutionary transformations, or as a danger threatening culture with destructive consequences. Postmodernism removes the norm / deviation dichotomy. This leads to the conclusion that a negative or positive understanding of the crisis is not characteristic of the methodology of postmodernism. Postmodernists with regard to social reality take a position associated with its replacement by "simulacra" (J. Baudrillard) and the clash of knowledge from different «epistemes» (M. Foucault). For this reason, the crisis of culture as an element of social reality cannot be recognized as a real phenomenon. Social reality is reduced to a narrative about reality by postmodernists. In this regard, the crisis of culture is understood as a discursive reaction to the inevitable withering away of old values, as nothing more than a "pessimistic impression" (J. Lyotard), which consist of the fact that the old universal knowledge legitimation system has outlived, and the new one has not yet was approved. It was revealed that the foundations of denying the substantiality of the crisis of culture in postmodernism are the recognition of the rhizomatic nature of culture, the historicity of values, the denial of social reality as an independent structure of being and its replacement with narratives about reality.

Today's art, which is dominated by postmodernism, evolves into a completely different sense of art that reverses the system over its own weapon and changes all the known values of art. Postmodern art, which focuses on questions about what is the thing that is art, canalises itself into citations and compilations which turn into imitation, appropriation, pastiche or plagiarism. While postmodernism turns into a kind of citation and compilation aesthetics; imitation, which is at the centre of the questions related to what is the thing that is art, becomes the strategy of postmodernism. The article titled ‘The Lord of the Postmodernity: Plagiarism’ is about the transformation of an art object into an art material or the re-presentation of it in today's sense of art which extends from imitation, appropriation and pastiche to plagiarism.Keywords: Postmodernism, plagiarism, power, imitation, appropriation, art, pastiche.

Full textAbstract:
At the beginning of the 20th century, postmodernism has depleted its cultural and aesthetic potential, and as most critics agree, it has become a phenomenon of the past. Among the conceptions aimed at comprehending the impact of the new media and digital technologies, together with the trend towards globalization, digimodernism, automoderrnism, altermodernism, performatism, and metamodernism can be listed as the most conspicuous ones. Proceeding from the fact that metamodernism is a theoretically developed and strongly institutionalized conceptualization of both current cultural change and 21st-century fi ction, this paper focuses on its cultural and literary strategies. Primarily, the study aims to analyze the fundamentals of metamodernism elaborated in the works by Timotheus Vermeulen and Robin van den Akker and in metamodernist web manifestoes. To achieve this goal, such notions as a “structure of feeling” and “new sincerity” that refl ect an emerging cultural sensibility, along with the principle of the metamodernist oscillation between modernist and postmodernist modes, are highlighted. The claim that the Metamodern era replaces Postmodernity is also under investigation. In addition, the paper explores the main features of metamodernism in the works by David Foster Wallace, one of the most famous and infl uential US writers of his generation, a talented novelist and essayist. Application of nonlinear, rhizomatic structures at the narrative level, modeling of the reality according to the principle “what if this is true?”, and a combination of the principles of “new sincerity” and post-irony in Wallace’s novel “Infi nite Jest” are considered. The paper concludes that metamodernism as a literary trend of the recent decades suggests new fi ctional patterns of aesthetic innovations, primarily in returning multiple facets of reality into a literary text. Key words: metamodernism, Metamodern, postmodernism, Postmodern, “new sincerity”, “structure of feeling”, Vermeulen and van den Akker, “Notes on Metamodernism”, David Wallace, “Infi nite Jest”.

Full textAbstract:
In their work published in 2001, “After Postmodernism” (López, Potter 2001), the editors Garry Potter and José López claim that postmodernism was the most influential intellectual trend of the last third of the 20th century, and one of the central trends in the Western cultural-theoretical thinking since the 1960s. Postmodernism managed to grasp the spirit of the time and at the same time challenge self-confidence, presented by the mind, objectivity and knowledge (ib. 3). At the same time the authors have to admit that by the beginning of the 21st century the heyday of postmodernism had passed, postmodernism was in the “stage of decline” and “out of fashion” (ib. 4). Today, in 2011, we have to admit that the early-decade prediction of Potter and López has come true; postmodern society is retreating and the postmodernist theory is on the decline and losing its central role.

Full textAbstract:
The article considers the internal contradictions of the popular attitude, according to which postmodernism as such, in principle, “is not an object” (current, style, school, etc.). At best, it is assigned a set of intentions and conditions that characterize the “situation of postmodernism”. However, in postmodernism itself, which rejects binary oppositions, the concept of an object is generally eliminated. In traditional logic, on the contrary, there is nothing that could not be an object in its proper and strict sense. These inconsistencies are generated by the forced mixing of languages – the inevitable inclusion of postmodern discourse in traditional contexts. The semantic distinctions of the concepts of postmodernity, postmodern, postmodernism are introduced. The invariance of postmodernism as an object is revealed only at the level of form, including the basic characteristics of the language – its syntax, semantics and pragmatics. Language collisions continue in the relationship of the paradigms themselves. Modernity turns out to be a project, not only unfinished (Habermas), but also unfinishable, and postmodernity is a purely secondary phenomenon in its initial reactivity. This sets the limits of what is possible in the new search for a way out of postmodernism into post-postmodernism, neoclassicism, after-postmodernism, etc.

Full textAbstract:
Postmodernist education aims to train social agents capable of diagnosis, intervention and change of the existential framework. From the perspective of postmodernist education, education must determine the subjects to be in a continuous problematic state, a state in which to constantly ask questions and seek answers. The paradigm of postmodernist education emphasizes the usefulness of knowledge: what will you do after graduation?; how will you use what you have learned?; how will you improve your life by applying what you know? In this sense, postmodernism advances the idea that it is necessary to introduce new technologies in school in order for education to keep pace with the continuous socio-economic transformation and rapid digitalization of culture.
