Abstract

This article is a study of the representation of time in postmodern narrative. It is divided into two major parts. Firstly, it examines the new definition of history in postmodernism and the effect of this new definition on postmodern narrative. History in postmodernism is no longer distinct from fiction. It is plural, and it does not provide total concepts, what Lyotard calls as meta-narratives. History is entangled in a text as much as fictional discourse is. Sometimes a historical account in postmodernist literature becomes close to pastiche which is a collection of images and simulations. Eventually, the notion of instantaneity is discussed which breaks down the continuity of time. In the second part of this article, I have focused on the effect of phenomenology on the contemporary understanding and representation of time. Time in postmodern narrative is a phenomenon existing on its own. It circles and fluctuates, but can not be patterned. It does not act as a line in order to make the plot coherent; it is coextensive with the events of the narrative. Finally, the notion of labyrinthine time is discussed. The whole article is an attempt to explore the role of time in postmodernist literature and this in itself will help towards a new understanding of literary texts.
