Abstract

This paper begins with a famous comment by Virginia Wolfe about the world changing “on or about December, 1910” when, she argued, modernist thought became dominant and changed human relations. My paper suggests that postmodernism begins in the Sixties, offers a definition of postmodernism taken from the French scholar, Jean-Francois Lyotard, and contrasts modernism with postmodernism. It offers an analysis of Disneyland as a postmodern entertainment and concludes with a discussion of whether postmodernism is now passe and has been succeeded by something else—namely post-postmodernism.
