This journal states that Baudrillard refused to be labeled as a postmodernist, it goes on to say that ironies were discussed with respect to marxist and feminist readings- in light of the possibility that it may be these that are infact post modern.
key pointers
'postmodernity must be considered partially in terms of the difficulty of describing it'
'the move into the beyond, free from the ghosts and all the master thinkers of times past'
'postmodernism is the restoration of a past culture'
'to bring back all past cultures, to bring back everything that one has destroyed injoy and which one is reconstructed sadness in order to try and live, to survive .... all the remains to be done is to play the pieces'
'playing with the pieces that is postmodernism'
