    Post Modernism Features usually don't abide by typical features of any art form. It is basically going beyond it and breathing it a fresh air in order to produce a new form. Here the traditional form serves as a base where the new implications are highlighted. Some basic features found in Post Modernism are: 1. Hyperreality - It is an inability of consciousness to distinguish between reality and the simmulation of reality. 2. Intertextuality - When a text is used as a reference in another "text" prose, poetry or fiction. There buds up a relationship between these two texts and they become intertexual. 3.Magical Realism - The depiction of a real world with an undercurrent of magic or fantasy. 4.There is distortion of time. 5.There are themes of paranoia, where the nature of reality are manipulated by forces in power. Main Post Modernists: Jean Francois Lyotard Jean Baudrillard Fedric Jameson Michel Foucault
