ABSTRACT
The question concerning the end of postmodernism does not coincide with the question of its succession. The first question is about time and death, urging us to think a certain way of thinking as an entity capable of death (as death?—a Heideggerian might ask). Thus, the first question remains within the anthropocentric realms of interpretation that postmodernism attempted to overcome. The second question is also about time; that is, time thought in terms of space—the future transfigured as walking on a path. Nevertheless, before proceeding onto any path, let us think now, at this point in time, in this specific space, of a third question; namely: ‘What is Enlightenment?’ Isn’t this still the question we need to answer? Posed centuries ago, inviting thinkers to consider the state of their own time—this question raised anew the possibility of time. Educational Philosophy and Theory’s question does now something similar by acknowledging a certain kind of shift. Still, from where and to where? Too many metaphors, too little space—too little time!
