Can Metamodernism Sublate Modernism and Postmodernism?


Listen Later

This segment explores whether Metamodernism can reconcile Modernism and Postmodernism. The author reviews ideas associated with each philosophy, critiquing their underlying assumptions and inherent biases. Modernism's faith in science, progress, and reason are questioned, while Postmodernism's emphasis on cultural critique and social justice is analysed for prescriptive elements. The author argues that Metamodernism appears to be an attempt by Modernists to repackage their ideas. Ultimately, the author finds Metamodernism unconvincing, viewing it as a re-gifting of Modernism. The piece concludes by briefly touching on metaphysical and spiritual elements, along with other related philosophical concepts such as post-liberalism.https://philosophics.blog/2021/01/17/can-metamodernism-sublate-modernism-and-postmodernism/
