In Advanced Hermeneutics this semester, we have read many books , such as Foucault, Fish, Derrida, and others, dealing with the rejection of objective truth from the Enlightenment. Postmoderns place the locus of truth on the reader. All texts therefore become like poetry for the reader to manipulate. In addition, we have discussed about how all of life is a text. If the Postmodern Posterchild’s life after film is any indication of the fate of postermodern hermeneutics, reader beware. Willis knows know i’m talking about.
