The term
defies easy definition
, but generally comprises the following core ideals:
A continual
skepticism towards
the ideas and ideals of the modern era, especially the ideas of progress,
objectivity,
reason, certainty & personal identity,
and grand narrative
in general
The belief that all communication is shaped by cultural bias, myth, metaphor, and political content.
The assertion that
meaning
and
experience
can only be created by the individual, and
cannot be made objective
by an author or narrator.
...
Skepticism towards metanarrative denial of objective reality.
Meaning and experience being subjective "language is everything."
It's a sad day when wikipedia makes more sense than the Che.
