Philosophy 290 - Post Modernism

Institution:

Hiram College

Subject:

Description:

Post Modernism is the reigning philosophical and artistic movement today. Contemporary artworks and philosophers are casually described as Post-Modern, though pinning down just what that means can be difficult. In this class, we will try to identify what Post-Modernism is and how it differs from earlier movements, especially Modernism and the Enlightenment. We will trace its birth and development across the last half-century in America and Europe. We will be focusing on its philosophical representatives, though we will examine how these ideas can take artistic form.
