Interpretive subjectivity and gender relativism in the theories of postmodernism

Interpretation as a stream of our consciousness is determined
by di erent contexts and various narratives which stimulate this process
reacting to the changeability of the world and human beings in it. The
postmodern theory while losing its topicality keeps the key principle of
interpretation rm and stable. Interpretation is simultaneously open and
xed, though the process of constructing narratives is not. As interpretation provides vast space for gender, the feminist theory proceeds with the
\new feminist reading", and the aim of the feminist criticism lies in revealing misogynism and masculine approaches to di erent discourses and
narratives. Still in postmodernism feminist interpretation often rejects
\comprehension" in its classical meaning denying analogy, symmetry and
equivalence. The subjectivity of feminist interpretation is not a transparent line between the human being and the surrounding world: the \better"
is interpretation, the more \objective" seem our narratives, the stronger
appear constructs stipulated by culture, gender, ideology.
