9 Title: Aug 29 8:47 PM (9 of 19) Stages of Modernism

10 Questions and Problems The past was devoted to answers; the modern period confines itself to questions. The true question, the one alone worth asking, cannot and need not be answered; it need only be asked over and over again, forever in new ways. A modernist culture is committed to the view that the human lot is inescapably problematic. Irving Howe Title: Aug 29 8:47 PM (10 of 19)

11 Joy in the Problematic The problematic is adhered to because it comes to be considered good, proper, and even beautiful that men should live in discomfort. Objection evasion, joyous distrust, and love of irony are signs of health; everything absolute belongs to pathology. Truth has never yet hung on the arm of an absolute. Friedrich Nietzsche Title: Aug 29 8:47 PM (11 of 19)

12 Attributes of the Modern Religious certainty and moral absolutes are replaced by skepticism and doubt. adapted from Irving Howe Title: Aug 29 8:47 PM (12 of 19)

14 Attributes of the Modern adapted from Irving Howe Alienation of the comforts of religion humans become homeless in the universe Title: Aug 29 8:47 PM (14 of 19)

15 Attributes of the Modern Increasing doubt as to the value of rational thought adapted from Irving Howe Because of moral uncertainties, people must boldly experiment to create a new self, a new art, a new society Title: Aug 29 8:47 PM (15 of 19)

16 Attributes of the Modern adapted from Irving Howe Growing doubt and increased questioning of the purpose of life (particularly the pain) Title: Aug 29 8:47 PM (16 of 19)

18 Challenge and Joy Modernists thought of themselves as optimists because they were recreating the world through a new understanding. The human process of questioning and challenging ideas is enriching and ultimately can bring joy. Title: Aug 29 8:47 PM (18 of 19)
