The Death of Postmodernism And Beyond

The article presents the author's argument that a new paradigm of authority and knowledge formed through technological advances and social forces has replaced post-modernism. Belief in post-modernism is supplanted with the belief in critical realism, asserted the author. He exemplify this by exposing the contradicting terms in the Postmodern Fiction taught in universities. A comparison between post-modernism, modernism and romanticism is considered.
