What Is The Postmodern Period?
The Postmodern period is revered as one of the great periods of the poetic timeline. The Postmodern period took after the Modern period and is still in effect as of today. To examine the Postmodern period, it is first important to learn of its beginnings. The Modern period was a time of progress, and was based on the belief that everything was possible. The Modern Period ended drastically with the World Wars as the industrialized world used technological advancements to wipe out two generations of young men. These wars disillusioned the populace and the artists turned to much darker ideals. The Postmodern period was especially present during the post-Word War Two era, particularly after 1968. This period holds a notion of reestablishing the cultural landscape with depressing sentiments, an open acceptance into continental philosophy, and a liberal politics. In this period, anything goes.
