Because I’m Busy Studying… April 25, 2006 Jill Read this post over at Unwilling Self-Negation. Thoughts?
“Golly, am I ever ignorant.” I’ll reread it a couple of times and see if I can’t come up with anything better.
It’s going to take me a while to come up with something coherent to say about pragmatic postmodernism. And here I was thinking that studying for evidence was tending toward the esoteric…
Kay, Jill, I finally finished the damn thing. Isn’t “postmodernism” a weird term. Modern is, by definition, the time you are in. Of course if they didn’t want some to have to say postmodernism they shouldn’t have called some thing modernism in the first place. Just call it pragmatism and leave it at that. Or, perhaps, pragmatic actualism (snappier n’est-ce pas?) I think the take on traditionalism is pretty on-target but post modern pragmatism is a little weak-kneed.
