postmodern
意味: Relating to a late 20th-century movement in art, architecture, and criticism that reacted against modernism by embracing irony, pastiche, and the blurring of boundaries between high and popular culture.
Postmodernism is notoriously difficult to define, which some argue is part of its point. In architecture, it rejected modernist functionalism in favour of playful, eclectic designs. In literature and philosophy, postmodernism questions the existence of objective truth, grand narratives, and stable meaning. The term has become so widely used — and misused — that it sometimes serves as a vague synonym for 'contemporary' or 'ironic.'
