| Abstract | “The diction of words when one is writing an academic paper must be of high concern if the subjectmatter is a topic related to post-modern literature. In this article, for instance, the word “legacy”, which first appears in the title, may convey an idea of money or property which an heir or heiress is due to receive after someone else has died, or, in less restrict and direct terms, the situation and the attitudes that certain events or periods of history leave behind them, and the influence that they have on the future. I think these ideas linked to “legacy” are enough to conflate the definitions to the word found in dictionaries. Nevertheless, the meaning I want to give the term here goes beyond all that, because it must fit some characteristics and requirements of post-modern writing and criticism. |
