Welcome to my blog



Ever wondered why we do the things we do? Why we believe the things we believe? And why we dream the dreams we dream? If the answer is yes, you have come to the right place. Here on my blog you can have all of these questions answered as I explore postmodern ideologies, concepts and theories. 



In my blog I take a look at Manuels Puig's novel the Kiss of the Spider Woman. Here you can can find four articles, three of which critically observe key postmodern theorists. These include Adorno on The Culture Industry, Althusser and his essay "Ideological State Apparatuses" and lastly Freud's "Interpretation of Dreams". My fourth extract applies these theories to Puig's text observing the ways in which postmodern theory influenced the writers of the time. 

 

Enjoy exploring!
