The Condition of Postmodernity

The Condition of Postmodernity refers to a societal shift that emerged in the late 20th century, characterized by skepticism towards grand narratives and ideologies, such as religion or scientific rationality. In this era, cultural diversity, fragmented identities, and hyperreality—where the line between reality and simulation blurs—are prevalent. People increasingly question established truths and embrace multiple perspectives. Art, literature, and architecture reflect this through eclectic styles and playful irony, representing a move away from the certainty of modernism towards a more complex, ambiguous understanding of the world.
