Horizontal Polyecticism and Polyconstruction: the Newest Post–Modernist Approaches

Pratick Mallick

Abstract :

Post–modernism appeared as the newest approach when behaviouralism was in full swing. Post–modernism went against leaning to past tradition and concentrated to new creations completely independent of history. Yet, being varied and complicated in features, it sometimes proved to be paradoxical mainly due to minimum hierarchical limitations. Horizontal polyecticism and polyconstruction tried to take it out of that limitation by giving it proper sense of ahistoricism. Thus post–modernism undergoes a paradigmatic transformation within itself
