Perespectives: Cone of Cogency

  1. Hi Rhia - I think you need to look at your theoretical framework in Chapter 2... In terms of our 'preference' for dystopian storytelling, I think you need to revisit some of the ideas we encountered last term... Lyotard's 'incredulity for metanarratives' - so that sense of 'distrust/scepticism' for those big overarching structures - one of the reasons we don't 'like' Utopias is because we 'postmodern' and because we don't like/are comfortable with 'monolithic' ideas/structures. I'd argue the 'trend' for dystopias is connected with poststructuralist theories - so Derrida and his attack on 'logic' (ideology masquerading as 'binary opposition') etc.
