Describe man of mode as a post modern text.

A few of the characters represent tradition, while others represent modernity. In their views on marriage and modesty, as well as their way of conducting themselves, Old Bellair and Lady Woodvill represent a more traditional, old-fashioned worldview. Mrs. Loveit also represents this, as she has an outmoded view of love and courtship. Young Bellair and Emilia represent a middle perspective, as they value traditional marriage but are open-minded to new modes of behavior. Medley, Dorimant, and Harriet are more modern because they are completely open and/or accepting of the new norms of sexual behavior and marriage as a match of equals.
