Understanding Postmodernism, #10.

CONCEPT

This "project" is an informal discussion of modernism and postmodernism, ultimately to be applied to the larger Gothic Funk debate. A more detailed description of the project is available here. PLEASE ADD YOUR COMMENTS AND JOIN THE DEBATE:



Paragraph 3, Sentence 2:

Kant provides the necessary ground by offering romanticism a model of mind that casts scientific rationality as merely a practical mode of understanding bound to appearances and unable to reflect upon the productive energies giving value to those appearances.




Charles Altieri, "Modernism and Postmodernism," The New Princeton Encyclopedia of Poetry and Poetics (1993), 792-796.
