Postmodernism exam prep

For each text that you want to be able to write about in the exam, answer the following questions:

1)Thinking about the different versions of postmodernism, how can this text be identified as post-modern?

2)Is it easy or not to position this text into a single genre or not?

3)Does the text play with genre conventions?

4)Does the text employ a classical approach to narrative structure?

5)Does the text challenge old notions of text-reader relations? If so, how? If not, why not?

6)What kind of cultural capital do you need to best understand this text?
