In Dr. Dino Felluga’s "General Introduction to Postmodernism," how is the concept of "simulacra" defined?

Show Answers

An entity that substitutes reality with its depictionA consistent reference point to an identifiable original cultural objectA perfect copy of the physical worldA fundamental acceptance of ordinary reality

Explanation

Option A refers to the idea of simulacra as something that replaces reality with its representation, which aligns with Felluga's definition. Option B incorrectly suggests a stable reference to an original artifact, which simulacra lack. Option C implies an exact copy of the material world, which is not the case. Option D describes a basic acceptance of everyday reality, unrelated to the concept of simulacra.
