Postmodernism emerged as a cultural movement in literature, philosophy and other fields in the aftermath of modernism. It is characterized by irony, playfulness and black humor as well as intertextual references and pushing boundaries in a liberating way, though some question if audiences are ready. There is debate around whether we have moved beyond the age of postmodernism or if it is still relevant today.
