Thank you Dr.Masood ,this was very helpful. what i understand is that the emergence of postmodernism is important to satisfiy different voices and opinions, in the other hand, modernism believe in reason and science, the nuclear bombs that caused massive genocide confirm that science when wrongly employed could be extremely destructive ,therefore there is a need for multiple perspectives , can you please give me feedback about this conclusion ,am i in the right path?

[@masoodraja]

Thank you. Sorry I cannot respond to such conclusions as I am not privy to your whole argument. I would recommend reading up on both, modernism and postmodernism, and then deciding what you think about them.

Sir, you told all about how they think, many viewers like me want to learn what they think.

[@masoodraja]

Thank you. These videos are just an introduction. Please read further to really enhance your understanding.

[@سعادحسينعلي-ن6خ]

Thank you Sir, your explication is so clear, but what is the difference between selfreflxivity and metafictional elements in postmodernist writing?

[@masoodraja]

I do have videos on both of these topics but obviously they are two different terms. You could say metafiction is all parts that are not part of the fictional narrative and self reflexivity is specific references to the fictionality of the work itself. I explain these terms in my course on postmodernism: www.udemy.com/course/postmodernism/?referralCode=10274DF5A57525F1B43E

Thank you so much professor

[@rahmatali1462]

Is postmodernism a natural progression of modernism?

[@masoodraja]

I am not sure if it’s a natural progression but since it plays with so many modernist tropes, one could say that it needs modernism as a necessary precondition.

I'm having a hard time understanding the difference between a given historiographic metafiction and a historical fiction. I understand that simply metafiction is thrown into the mix to get historiographical metafiction but I'm afraid I haven't read or don't remember reading such a thing because I can't quite put my finger on it. Can someone give an example from a book? I just can't take a novelist in a novel and connect it with historical fiction, but I can understand how in a historical fiction there can be sentences such as "let's see what our heroes are doing at Mesopotamia" for example.

[@masoodraja]

Thank you. By far the best explanation is by Linda Hutcheon in her book The Poetics of Postmodernism; she actually coined the term. Wikipedia has a good introductory entry on it: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Historiographic_metafiction

[@masoodraja]

This might help too: kzbin.info/www/bejne/o6DTmWWCjrSHjZI

[@charackthe]

@@masoodraja Thank you very much! Now I have a clearer understanding of it.

[@romanigupta1272]

Hlo sir...What is meant by grand narrative?

[@masoodraja]

Thanks. I think I explained it but a simple search would lead you to various explanations of the term.

[@jawadmian8985]

Sir can you explain Repertorial negations and narrative strategical blanks in your video?

[@masoodraja]

Thank you. I would need more context for this. Where did you read these terms?

[@jawadmian8985]

In an article which was about postmodern fictions' form and function.

[@masoodraja]

I am afraid I cannot answer this without the context. Please ask your professor.

[@rahmatali1462]

Sir I'm waiting for your response.

[@masoodraja]

I think I already responded to your question.
