What is Postmodernism?

A Podcast explaining what #Postmodernism and Postmodernity are featuring Jon (also known as TheLitCritGuy) a writer and academic.  In this podcast, we debunk some common myths about "postmodernism" and contrast two different ways of looking at what postmodernism is. One being postmodernism as a historical socio-cultural epoch and 2: Postmodernism as a theoretical style/tendency.  We go primarily over thinkers  such as Fredric Jameson (author of "Postmodernism: The Culture of Late Capitalism" , Jean François Lyotard (Author of "The Postmodern Condition") and a little about Derrida  and Foucault (who are often misleadingly associated with being "post-truth"). Postmodernism and its related concepts such as #Hauntology, Parody vs Pastiche, #latecapitalism, and the death of the metanarrative.
