Postmodernism VS Objective Truth | Dr Stephen Hicks

from Wandering Thoughts Hosted by wandering thoughts

In this episode, Dr. Stephen Hicks and I discuss postmodernism and its relationship to truth, meaning, and culture. We explore what postmodernism really is, its connection to nihilism, and how these ideas shape society from the top down and bottom up. We dive into poststructuralism, Jacques Derrida, and how writing styles reflect the philosophies they are trying to express. We also touch on impressionism and expressionism, before tackling the central question: is there objective truth? Finally, we discuss the human search for meaning, and the importance of engaging with philosophical ideas from a young age.
