[1] Modernism is characterized by romanticism, form, purpose, hierarchy and other concepts, while postmodernism is defined by concepts like pataphysics, antiform, chance, and anarchy. [2] Hassan outlines the differences between modernism and postmodernism in areas such as narrative, codes, sexuality, and metaphysics. [3] The document provides this framework to help understand Furukawa Hideo's postmodern work "Now There Is Neither Purity Nor Defilement."

    Lit 365: Morrison Ihab Hassan on Postmodernism

    What is postmodernism? Is it an historical era? Is it a specific movement in the arts? It is an artistic sensibility? A set of philosophical precepts? How does it differ from modernism? Theorist Ihab Hassan famously divided modernism and postmodernism along the following lines. We will discuss these differences in detail in class. For now, think about these issues/characteristics as you read my translation of Furukawa Hideos postmodern work Now There Is Neither Purity Nor Defilement (2012).
