post modern theory

* The narrative is done by the author, they have the authority and makes the meaning to the texts the audience expect the Author to tell the truth as they have the power.

 * Like in the bible God has all the power and can be classed as a Grand Narrative.

  *Another example would be the victorians as men had the authority and were classed as superior

   *A very important person to post modern is Bartats, who created the death of the author, which started post modernism. 

 *Fiction is not the truth who should decide what is the truth ? It is now up to the audience to believe in the meaning or the truth, There is no authority behind the meaning. 

* Grand narrative- Start, Middle and the end
