Post Modernism and Enjoyment - Is There a Centre?
In post modernism, we're constantly obligated to enjoy. But the difficulty with making enjoyment an obligation is that you have no enjoyment. You have no ability to resist anything. There's no nothing you can transgress. The only way that you can have experimentation and play is if you're experimenting against some norm or centre. Iht, if you eliminate all this, then you have nothing to grapple with, nothing to respond to. So i actually think that removing the centre, removing a a, that you no sort of limitation, prohibition, it's actually much more debilitating. And that’s why there’s so much more anxiety on our part today in terms of enjoying ourselves.
