Modernism

-Art as exclusive, elevated, and set apart ( Pieces of art were made by an elite and were appreciated by them. Art reflected sophisticated tastes that belonged to the effects of  the Industrial Revolution. Reason and formal expressions were important.)

Postmodernism

-Rejection of seriousness ( This literary movement is against the formal and rational characteristics of modern art.)

-Cynical and pessimistic outlook ( This movement reacts against the effect science had in the past. Science and reason were used to plan wars - the World Wars-).

-Fragmentation of the self ( The "I" , source of reason, is fragmented. The unconscious emerges. The "I" is disrupted by emotions it cannot control).

-Emphasis on a psychological construction of meaning ( Meaning is not constructed only through reason but through emotions)

-Blending of literary genres, blurring of the lines between fact and fiction, exploration of "high culture" and "low culture" ( There are not clear boundaries bewteen narratives and culture because the artist is different. The artist is disrupted by his / her unconscious and his / her socio-cultural context affects his / her view of the world. Popular culure emerges).
