1. Contexts of absurdity
“Society is unattainable,” says Lacan; however, according to Pickett[1] , it is not so much society
that is unattainable, but
rather the genre, and hence the futility, of society. Neocapitalist cultural
theory implies that narrative must come from the collective unconscious.
But Sontag suggests the use of Foucaultist power relations to attack and
read society. If the textual paradigm of context holds, we have to choose
between neotextual sublimation and cultural subtextual theory.
It could be said that the premise of the textual paradigm of context implies
that expression is created by the masses, given that Sontag’s model of
Debordist image is valid. Baudrillard uses the term ‘Debordist situation’ to
denote a textual whole.
It could be said that the premise of Debordist image holds that sexual
identity has objective value. Cameron[6] suggests that we
have to choose between the structural paradigm of consensus and Sontagist camp.
If one examines Debordist image, one is faced with a choice: either reject
the dialectic paradigm of narrative or conclude that the State is capable of
significant form. In a sense, Sartre uses the term ‘deconstructive materialism’
to denote the meaninglessness, and some would say the failure, of submodernist
sexual identity. The main theme of Porter’s[10] model of
Debordist image is the difference between class and society.
Thus, many narratives concerning the bridge between class and society may be
discovered. The primary theme of the works of Rushdie is not dematerialism, as
Baudrillard would have it, but neodematerialism.
“Society is a legal fiction,” says Marx. But Lacan uses the term
‘Batailleist `powerful communication” to denote not theory, but subtheory. The
primary theme of the works of Rushdie is the role of the poet as participant.

The Postmodernism Generator was written by Andrew C. Bulhak using the Dada Engine, a system
for generating random text from recursive grammars, and modified very slightly by Josh Larios
(this version, anyway. There are others out there).
This installation of the Generator has delivered 17,436,777 essays since 25/Feb/2000 18:43:09 PST,
