MEANING & PRONUNCIATION
die Postmoderne
postmodernism; the postmodern era (cultural approaches following modernism, and the associated period, often questioning single, certain explanations and emphasizing differences and multiple perspectives)
IN CONTEXT
An der Postmoderne reizt mich die Skepsis gegenüber großen Gewissheiten, solange sie nicht dazu dient, jede überprüfbare Behauptung für beliebig zu erklären.
What appeals to me about postmodernism is its skepticism toward sweeping explanations treated as unquestionable truths, provided that skepticism is not used to dismiss every claim that can be tested as just a matter of saying whatever one likes.
