This document summarizes a presentation about Grace McCleen's novel "The Land of Decoration".

何謂後現代?
• 如今我們正從現代化的夢魘中,亦即從操縱人的理性與對
總體性( totality )的迷戀中覺醒;進入後現代意義浮動
的多元化世界中,也就是身處生活方式與語言遊戲的異質
範圍,已經放棄了使它本身總體化與合法化的懷舊渴望。
【 Terry Eagleton , "Awakening from Modernity" , The
Times Literary Supplement, 20 February 1987. 】
• 法國哲學家李歐塔對後現代的定義是「對後設敘事不肯輕
易地相信」。
【 Jean-François Lyotard, The Postmodern Condition: A
Report on Knowledge (Minneapolis: University of Minnesota
Press,1984) 】
