Thanks this has joined up some of the dots! I hadn't fully appreciated liberalism's development from the enlightenment, and haven't realised it can be thought of as a modernist ideology, which it is so clear to me now that is it. I think both modernism and postmodernism have some truth to them. I agree that people are too diverse and prone to tragedy to reach a perfect state of harmony. I also believe the best way we can get as close to peace and prosperity as possible is to push on with the fundamental tenets of modernism and imo liberalism.

Excellent. A very well done summary with practical explanations and examples. Unlike other readings on this subject.

I feel like the presentation of information was messy and confusing. There was the initial presentation of modernism which then jumped into postmodernism, back into modernism and then presented the section on postmodernism. I also think that the visuals provided disappeared too quickly, resembling a random flash rather than a supporting image to be looked at and understood. I think it would have been better to present the info first as modernism, post modernism, compare and contrast, and then conclusion.

How I read it ( literally too) Postmodernism calls into question the powers of reason, asserts the importance of nonrational forces such as sensations and emotions, rejects humanism and the traditional philosophical notion of the human being as the central subject of knowledge, champions heterogeneity and difference. “The Postmodernists' tyranny wears people down by boredom and semi-literate prose.” -Christopher Hitchens “Hell hath no fury like a coolly received postmodernist.” -David Foster Wallace, Girl With Curious Hair

One of the drivers behind modernist development in music was the notion that the arts always had to proceed towards greater and greater complexity, this was a natural assumption given that the trend in the C19 was towards greater complexity, from Beethoven to Wagner, for instance. The problem with this was that human beings don't necessarily find music & poetry to be more expressive the more complex they are. So it happened that two of the greatest modernist artists, TS Eliot and Alban Berg had mentors who were ideologically pure modernists (Pound and Schoenberg) but were themselves equally influenced by more traditional approaches to their art, and both of these artists produced work of much greater significance and general appeal than their mentor. Post modernists in music and poetry, for example, are often just people who realize that the audience they are writing for are not robots and who have attempted to recover the emotional sources of art, a good example being Philip Glass.

Very understable. Thank you. I don't think quantum mechanics was initially the reason why postmodernists critiqued modernist and enlightenment grand narratives. Lyotard did this but also later expressed he did not understand the hard sciences well enough. Quantum Mechanics does not undermine reason and logic at all and those who think it does are usually not physicist. It does not undermine the possibility of a deterministic world either because the probabilistic nature can be easily summarized in simple and elegant statistics that actually predicts a "very" deterministic macro world. Otherwise something like a computer would not work.

@thezpn

3 жыл бұрын

It's not that quantum mechanics negates determinism, but moreso that the concepts of mutually assured destruction, the heat death of the universe, and the concepts of black holes make the foundation of science more exposed to critique than it had been in decades. Instead of asking "what can we learn from science" we ask "how did we shape science to ask questions we wanted the answers to?" Of course I'm using postmodern in a cultural sense than a philosophical sense here.

...or a car, planet, human-being or universe. Quantum Mechanics was discovered due to the Scientific Enquiry and subsequent Method developed from Modernism. As R states, if you put in the effort to gain a fuller understanding of it, it reinforces the Modernism ideals at a macro level. If you look at it with a nihilistic approach (ie, TL;DR) you will end up deducing that it is all too hard, cherry pick the bits that work for whatever argument you can come up with (and too be fair, this is QUANTUM MECHANICS - you can bend this any way you want...) and come up with ANYTHING you want to determine.

Thank you very much, have subbed & liked .

Wow, after searching Wikipedia and other sources, THIS (finally) cleared up this subject/these subjects! Here is my take on pretty much the whole kit and caboodle: I feel that there are valid points to all of the above; the trick would be to incorporate the best of the best of EACH philosophy. I probably won't be able to fit all of my thoughts on this subject in this comment, but I'll give you a few salient points/conclusions I came to after watching this video: Now, to my understanding: The Enlightenment came in response to new understanding of the physical universe and ways to improve the human condition using science, technology etc. as opposed to SOLELY putting it in "God's hands" etc. If one were religious but ALSO a proponent of The Enlightenment, it might be a matter of a "God helps those who help themselves" type thing: with new understanding of technology and science, one could indeed potentially improve the lot of man, etc. (yet still holding one’s religious beliefs at the same time). So, we have technology and science moving ahead at a pretty quick clip… Now, the error comes in (indeed, why I think certain men and women created the ideals/ideas of POSTmodernism) where science and technology, etc. is utilized to do greater harm than good (i.e., technology utilized for wars, etc.). I suppose that could extend to the invention of firearms (which in and of itself might be fine, but the MISUSE (the keyword here!) of which causes issues. In a nutshell, “Using technology for evil.” So, what I've gathered here is that postmodernism is not an answer or "counter" to the modern era/The Enlightenment etc. but a response to the MISUSE of said technology, philosophy, etc! Now, those who have used Modernism to dictate the lives of other men (in a robotic fashion) - to try to "unify" everyone (I feel) erred. ALONG WITH science and technology, etc. they tried to create a situation where there is a "cookie-cutter" treatment of men and women (to try to make everyone EQUAL for what they FEEL is/was the greater good). This, unfortunately, reduces one's individuality and free-thinking. Along with wars, etc., I think this objection to individualism helped create POSTMODERNISM. Now, personally, I like a portion of a COUPLE of the ideas of postmodernism and think they have validity, such as how I feel art should be something allowed to be expressed organically and in an individualistic manner (not to "conform" to some narrative). I also believe that people should have the right to have their own viewpoint (even if it counters a scientific reality) as long as it's not used to harm others. If one sees an elephant and chooses to call it a dog, that's fine. But if that elephant, being treated like a dog suffers or certainly if others suffer, then there is an issue, LOL! (well, sort of LOL). To wrap up this very short comment (not!) all the above came pouring out just after watching this video (again, thank you for an amazing explanation that no other source to date has been able to accomplish as well). My nutshell take is that the original ideas & ideals of religious philosophy has its place. It's been proven that individuals without a lasting faith of some sort (in a higher power, spirituality, etc.) tend not to do as well. There, indeed for some, may be a place for prayer. There's a place for religion (as long as it doesn’t lean toward creating counter-productive situations, etc.). I also believe there is definitely a place for science and technology and some of the ideas of the modern era/The Enlightenment, etc. Lastly, I certainly also believe that a FEW of the points of Postmodernism have a validity: each individual should be allowed to have their own viewpoints (no matter how much they may counter the scientific narrative, evidence, etc.) as well as how one should be free to create art of ANY kind, as long as it doesn't overtly harm others, which comes from the individual and not forced from a cookie-cutter narrative, etc. Lastly, from my observation, one should use science, technology etc. sanely and for the greater good. I’m sure there are some that won’t agree with everything, above. And that’s cool :-)

This was interesting, but I think that the Vietnam War, negative reaction to American imperial agendas in that war, and the fallout from that in that there was no longer a belief that America was fighting wars for idealistic reasons, but instead for imperialist reasons, actually was a major influence on postmodern literature, art, and thought.

Great video, although I'd be wary of labelling Heiddeger a Postmodernist, he, alongside Nietzsche, was a heavy influence on Postmodernist philosophers, but he himself was not a postmodernist.

I think this is a rather confused analysis. On one hand it describes both Modernism and Postmodernism as responses to The Enlightenment and then goes on to basically identify Modernism with The Enlightenment. I don’t this either Schoenberg or John Cage we’re trying to create “timeless pieces” that “advanced human progress with rationality”. People who responded negatively to modernist works of art, preferring Beethoven for example, weren’t “anti-Enlightment” or against rationality and progress. Something very different is at play. I came here as part of a larger quest to get greater clarity and precision about the distinction between Modernism and Postmodernism but this can’t be found by simply equating Modernism and Enlightenment.

modernism in architecture needs clarity. modernism in architecture was a revolution in building materials (steel and plate glass) that largely liberated the architect from the standards of the past. classical proportion was thrown out the window.

I just get confused in multiple spots by it.

The Enlightenment is not just a period of history but a period of history based on an actual enlightenment and that enlightenment is 'I am here and you are there' and with it, peace of mind and spiritual absolution entirely rooted in concrete scientific fact i.e., perspective geometry.

Post Modernism begun with the bombing of Nagasaki and Hiroshima. At this point all certainties and universal ideologies became meaningless in the presence of total annihilation. Truth became relative and reality, as a Modern concept, became ambiguous and transitory. There was no end point, everything was in flux - until the ‘end of History’ was erroneously declared at the end of the 20 Century. Post Modernism can be best described as ‘what’s the point?’. That’s not a nihilistic summary but a positive one - is everything valid? Unfortunately in some Western countries, Post Modernism has been superseded by solipsism, nostalgia and deceitful reactionary forces. Which is also what happened to Modernism.

On truth, postmo is actually seeing that there is no truth at all. The subjective truth (still truth nonetheless) is already proposed by, for example, Max Weber and Alfred Schultz. Therefore, consequently, postmo has nothing to offer to the scientific endeavor since methodology is hoped to reveal (some) truth about a phenomenon.

dont understand the part where it says postmodernist like the anti-war hippy culture that believes in no structure would criticize concepts such as freedom and societal progress. isn't that contradicting?

There's a concept proposed by Jean Baudrillard called "hauntology". It's much to intricate for me to summarize here, but it implies that our understanding of our present can only exist in comparison to a past (intangible and absent) or a future (intangible and absent). Though our present moment is real, it is only made perceivable by our imaginations. To ask when we will be in a post-post-modern era, one must first create the concepts of post-post-modernism to judge if it differs from our present moment. Of course by imagining this concept, we have just brought it into our present. I promise that Hauntology is a much more interesting dive into meaning than I've just presented.

This lecturer sounds like the voice from 'Kissing With Confidence'.

I’m confused by the idea that postmodernism “doesn’t offer any real solutions”. There are plenty of people who reject the primacy of human reason for other central values.

Don't say postmodernism offers no solution. Postmodern architecture has produced lots of solutions! It's everywhere!

i would explain it this way.. a better view of humanity would be to assume man was originally at the control and whim of higher powers and natural forces until mankind became more learned and was able to start to control things himself.. of which modernists in their ego and short shortsightedness credited themselves alone and thus isolated themself within their new limited enlightenment away from the original natural enlightenment they took for granted.

I find this analysis really lacking with regard to the postmodern movement, its motivations and its conclusions. There is so much more to it.

THEODORE van Gogh ? ?

This is a mix of obvious truths and complete falsehoods and the final recap of what Modernism and Postmodernism are is the best proof of it.

But isn´t there are difference between modernist writers and Modernity? I don´t think that all modernisitc writers with their self reflective style would agree that humanity advances through rationality and science. Consider Freud´s ideas of his psychoanalysis, that the ego is bascially not the master of its own mind. This ideas were very prevalent by "modernist" writer such as Virginia Woolf , who tend to question the capactity of the mind. Thus, Modernity is more a broad, very fuzzy timeframe. But i think it does not do justice to all of its writer at that time who would not agree with the tradition of Enlightement. In that regard, the divison between modernism and Postmodernism seems to questionable as well. Bascially, Posthumanism needs this narrow defintion of Modernism in order to demarcate itself from a created construct. Same logic also applies for Humanism vs Posthumanism.
