Postmodernism and Critical Theory Resources?

[83r17h]

Good morning,

In my career it seems I am running more and more into ideas and concepts that are influenced by postmodernism and critical theory. My question is twofold:

1) Are there any good resources by Christian / Reformed authors that deal with those two ideas?
2) What are the "primary sources," if you will, of postmodernism and critical theory?

I'm not looking for popular level books, but rather comprehensive ones, or deep and focused ones. Thanks!

2) What are the "primary sources," if you will, of postmodernism and critical theory?

I'm not sure about "primary sources" for critical theory, but Neil Shenvi's apologetics site is a terrific online resource.

Derrida, Foucault, and Judith Butler come to mind. I haven't read them much yet, because 1) my John Owen has priority, and 2) not my idea of a good time.

Awesome, thanks! I wasn't aware of Shenvi's site, I'll definitely need to take a look.
