This narrative of postmodernism’s failure has been extensively documented (and critiqued). For the “shift from epistemology to ontology” as a shared commitment across new materialisms, see Christopher N. Gamble, Joshua S. Hanan, and Thomas Nail, “What Is New Materialism?” Angelaki 24, no. 6 (2019). Jonathan Basile identifies “a generational shift … in continental science studies” from questioning scientific authority to a “‘materialism’ that enshrines it” in “The Epic of Genesis: Catherine Malabou and the Gêne of Epigenetics,” Derrida Today 16, no. 2 (2023): 106. For critiques of this narrative’s founding gesture and its systematic mischaracterization of poststructuralism, see Sara Ahmed, “Open Forum Imaginary Prohibitions: Some Preliminary Remarks on the Founding Gestures of the ‘New Materialism,’” European Journal of Women’s Studies 15, no. 1 (2008). As Daniel-Pascal Zorn observes, postmodernism functions as a uniquely convenient adversary: “Die ‘Postmoderne’ ist der Gegner, auf den sich alle einigen können,” in Die Krise des Absoluten (Klett-Cotta, 2022), 11.
