What is Postmodernism?

Postmodernism is a way of thinking that questions big, absolute truths and stories that explain everything. It says, "Maybe there's no one right way to see the world."

Challenging the Big Truths

Postmodernists challenge the idea that there's one "truth" for everyone. They think truth can be different for each person, like having many flavors of ice cream.

Saying Bye to Grand Stories

They also say "no" to big stories that explain everything (called meta-narratives). Postmodernists prefer lots of little stories, like a library with many books instead of just one.

Embracing Diversity

Postmodernism loves differences. It believes that many voices and experiences make the world richer, like a colorful garden with many kinds of flowers.

Questioning Everything

Postmodernists are like curious kids. They ask questions about everything and believe that nothing should be taken for granted. It's all about exploring and being open to new ideas.
