Abstract

The critique to which Modernism is now being subjected by Postmodernism has made it increasingly apparent that Modernism has long been misconstrued in so far as it has been understood as the fulfilment—or the latest development—of liberal humanism. Such a view of Modernism was to its credit in the 1940s and 1950s when liberal humanism was the 'ideology' of choice. However, today 'liberalism' is becoming a dirty word among enlightened American intellectuals—as it has been for a long time among unreconstructed conservatives and Marxists.
