What does Eagleton argue about that has been wrongly devalued by cultural theory, influenced by postmodernism?

  • Objectivity and ethics

  • Morality and spirituality

  • Tolerance and diversity

  • Tradition and heritage

Answer

Objectivity and ethics have been wrongly devalued by cultural theory, influenced by postmodernism, Terry Eagleton argues. Postmodernists believe that there is no such thing as objective truth, and that all truth is relative to the individual. This has led to a decline in the importance of ethics, as people believe that there is no right or wrong, only different perspectives.
