Dear Postmodern Space Journeyers,
Thank you for the brilliant and funny posts so far! I think it's
wonderful that we're posting to Postmodernism, especially after
re-reading Hassan.
I know I can't count on everyone reading this blog before this
evening, but if you check in, please be considering which writer you
might want to put your name next to in terms of leading discussion.
A thought to consider: Is postmodernism, in part, about creating
such a profusion of allusion (in "literature" and "criticism") that we
fall into weeping and find some residue of humanity, just at the moment
that we are also reminded of how far we cannot go? Does it matter if
the allusions even have a target source? (How) Do allusions exist?
See you this evening,
Elaine Orr

I'm posting this entry not because I have anything astonishing to say but because there needs to be an entry. So here it is. As soon as someone else has something to say, I'll get rid of this vapid old number.
