Postmodern Historical Perspectives And Its Evaluation

As a western social and cultural trend of rebellion against modern society,postmodernism covers almost all aspects and fields of contemporary culture.The postmodernist view of history is the manifestation of postmodernism in the field of history.Although from the academic point of view,its theoretical viewpoints have many innovations worthy of attention,but also contain the inevitable theoretical dilemma and negative reality.The post-modernist historiography cuts the "continuity" of history,denies the credibility of grand narratives,pursues the history of "fragmentation";analyzes the historical achievements from the perspective of linguistics,and doubts that historical texts construct the past The authenticity,"resolving history into purely imaginary literature." Before postmodernism,people only questioned whether history can restore history.In postmodern times,the objectivity of history was gradually dispelled,history became a product of fiction,and historians could not restore truth and reality truthfully.Postmodernism,as a foreign trend of thought,is worth noting that its theoretical viewpoint provides an ideological basis for historical nihilism.The mainstream historical concept of a sense of respect and awe of history has become blurred and even disintegrated under the impact of this.Based on the position of Marx's materialist historical view,this paper analyzes and explores the theoretical viewpoints of postmodernist historical view from multiple angles and comprehensively.from the aspects of criticism of traditional historical rationality,the resolution of historical objectivity,and the impact of textual discourse,the basic viewpoints and thoughts of postmodernist historical view are elaborated and revealed in real society.Finally,based on the above specific analysis,the historical concept of post-modernism is dialectically analyzed from the viewpoint of Marxist historical materialism,and a practical coping strategy is proposed for the possible nihilism effect.
