Postmodern Deconstruction and the Evolution of New World Literature: An Archaeology of Contemporary Narrative Practices

Abstract

This study explores the intersection of postmodernism and New World Literature (NWL) through the lens of archaeological methodologies, emphasizing the deconstruction and reconstruction of narrative structures. By employing textual deconstruction (TD) and meaning construction (MC) techniques, we analyze how postmodern literary theories inform the evolution of NWL. The study examines the interplay between narrative patterns, cultural influences, and deconstructionist techniques in NWL, assessing their impact on the perception of contemporary stories. Through this interdisciplinary approach, we aim to uncover the underlying intellectual foundations that shape the interpretation of literature in a globalized, interconnected world. This analysis provides insights into the coexistence of diverse philosophical perspectives and the quest for meaning in the rapidly changing literary landscape of the 21st century.
