[Vision2020] What is Postmodernism Anyway?

[Nick Gier]

Greetings:

Sorry for so many posts.  A while back I was surprised at the number of 
responses to my posting of a eulogy for Jacques Derrida, the French 
philosopher most responsible for deconstructive postmodernism.  It led to 
an invitation to give a sermon on the topic at the Unitarian Church.  That 
will be tomorrow at 9:30 or 11 AM at Second and Van Buren in Moscow.

Hope to see some of you there.

Nick Gier

"Modern physics has taught us that the nature of any system cannot be 
discovered by dividing it into its component parts and studying each part 
by itself. . . .We must keep our attention fixed on the whole and on the 
interconnection between the parts. The same is true of our intellectual 
life. It is impossible to make a clear cut between science, religion, and 
art. The whole is never equal simply to the sum of its various parts." 
--Max Planck
