| '''Premodernity''' is the world in which we live, and the society in which we function, and was started at the end of the dark ages and at the birth of the enlightenment, along side "modernity," which is a rebellion against the harsh realities of life and "postmodernity," a creation of artificial human reality to escape premodern and modern society completely. Modernity began in the 19th century as both an embrace and rebellion against the transformation of society from ], which in Europe followed the ] of the ] and the ] ] and ]. After the age of premodernity, in the mid 20th century ] and their sociological counterparts entered a new psychological warfare on medical and technological progress. Modernity changed to further war efforts and conservative politics that were receding due to the use of nuclear and atomic weaponry. Postmodernity also elludes to the destruction of social mobility for the lower classes and was the platform of the Nazi party. Premodern medical rights, capitalism and equality are at odds with modern and postmodern culture due to their attempts to control social hierarchy by qualitative or stereotypical thought, versus numerical reasoning done by premodern society. | |||

| ==Premodern worldview== | |||
| In the premodern era, truth was derived from knowledge and the maintenance of authority (as well as the belief in a god or gods depending on personal religious preferences). The state of human life is seen as unchanging, and social order is underlying and not to be questioned; this is in opposition to the social strata of modern culture where people have very little means to make sense of the world around them aside from the belief in a Holy body and postmodernity society which explains the world in which they live largely through stories . | |||
| =Premodern Art and Philosophy= | |||
| This can be seen throughout history, technically, but until the Enlightenment there was no other society for it to be matched against artistically and therefore the Enlightenment can be seen as both the birth of premodern and modern societies. Modern society can also be interpreted as beginning alongside the end of the Enlightenment, as modern philosopher Immanuel Kant was the philosopher who bid the Enlightenment farewell. | |||
| =Premodernity Today= | |||
| Premodern society has struggled in recent years to maintain stability due to modern uses of war to gain power and the new postmodernity which completely mocks war, sexual abuse, liberalism, and scientific tyranny, all of which it also objectively embraces. Premodernity is equal in many of these guilts. | |||
