postmodernism




Haha.~
let's get some songs relax now.
Imagine by John Lennon.

This is a song that Daniel shows us in the class, 
and now I'm using it to talk about postmodernism.

First of all, let me show you the lyrics:)

Imagine there's no heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today...
Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace...
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one
Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world...
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one


So, what do you think about the lyrics?
I strongly think that it is belongs to postmodernism.
It is about a person forever dreaming about something that unusual and wouldn't happen.

No heaven, no hell, no countries, no religion.
Somthing that peoples trying to broke the usual rule and stop moving forward.
Instead, they sit nothing and wish for something else that out of the boundaries.
In my opinion, postmodernism is a sad era. It is an era of uncertainty.
