"On Truth and Lying in a Non-Moral Sense”.
Friedrich Nietzsche tries to persuade his audience to view intellect as merely human, and in essence it fabricates the illusion of the truth which is in itself a reflection.
He explains his point using analogical reasoning instead of using the empirical evidence, he demonstrates his ideas using the very ideas the text proffers.
Truth is something considered creative, not a statement of fact, logic or otherwise. It is a moment of discovery.
Nietzsche is able to use dialogic inquiry, the art of illustration and figurative language to actively persuade his readers to agree that the truth is a human creation not a factual reason, he continues to illustrate the metaphors are the closet to the truth a man can ever get.
This is an epistemological exploration of the past or rather historical events that knowledge has undergone or experienced during eras like the era of late capitalism.
Jean-Francois does not in any way limit his argument on the topic of art only.
He focuses on the description of a delicate sophisticated web of interaction among the status of knowledge, technology, science, power relation and the development of human in the western world.
Jean-Francois Lyotard, first conceptualizes the word postmodernism in proximate association with justice and terror issues.
He uses the word to counter the hegemonic united associated with knowledge.
Lyotard ideas of postmodernism are based on heterogeneity, paralog, plurality and temporal consensus based on the reference to local determinism.
