Grand Narratives and Postmodernism: Critical Evaluation

Abstract

The context of my research is a very complex one. In my research I have critically evaluated how postmodemism denies grandnarratives and the different perspectives of postmodemism counter grandnarratives. I offer criticisms of grandnarratives in terms of the different perspectives viewed by postmodemists. I have also made my effort at literature review. I have studied a lot of scholarly works on the subject, and among them the texts of John Storey and Barbara Epstein helped me a lot to go for a critical standing. I did not include chapter division and other conventional things as I did not feel them necessary in terms of the pattern of my study. Thanks are due to my supervisor Dr. Fakru1 A1am, from whom I came to know a lot of things regarding my topic, and whose guidance and assistance were helpful. ThankS are also due to Dr. M. Shahidullah from whom I came to know about the methodologies of research in the 'Research Methodology' course that he offered.
