You forgot to mention postmodernism's interetextuality, how
often other works are referenced. For instance, pop culture
trivia litters much of the literature.
Out of curiosity, why does Eagleton (and others) place
the date at 1969? Was there some watershed work that came out
that year?

important being the rejection of Enlightenment values and the

Eagleton and others relate the beginning of postmodernism to
the end of the massive student rioting in France.
