Deconstructive postmodernism expresses the consequences of an idealism that has taken the linguistic turn and then has seen through the language. Whiteheadian postmodernism expresses the consequences of a realism that is reconstructed in terms of the priority of events over things or substances. It is quite consistent that deconstructive postmodernism peels the onion. It is equally consistent that Whiteheadian postmodernism seeks insights into the inexhaustible reality of the plenum of events, wherever those insights can be found.” |
