Postmodernism

I have been taking classes on postmodernism for this semester. I have read texts by Derrida, Foucault, Marin among many others. The whole experience makes me think of things in a completely different way than I did before. The citationality of postmodernist theories allows for the embrace of different ideas, incorporated in the same space. Your account of events doesn't mean you are wrong or right, it is just the way you interpret the world around you. You need to be able to deconstruct ideas down to the simplest instance because it is about thinking the difference between things. There are many different principles and many methods that you can apply that would be considered postmodern. I will present some of these methods with examples over the next few bogs.
