英文释义

名词 n.
  1. Those aspects of modern times that are dependent on and shaped by the availability of oil. uncountable
    — While Oil, its extraction, and the global petroculture and its role in transforming the planet's climate undoubtedly play a crucial role in the Antropocene imaginary — to the extent that petrofiction has been construed not just as a genre but as a periodizing gesture of "petromodernity" — it would hamper both the imagination and the root of petrofiction to restrict the range of this term to the encounter with fossil fuels within a carbon imaginary.

词源

From petro- + modernity.
