aporeticity Explanation: I would go for aporeticity as this derivative has been used in a number of academic publications (including PhD theses) and is slowly gaining ground in works on (especially) hermeneutics. Besides, as in Polish, the term aporeticity is transparent and easily retrievable. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 7 hrs (2017-02-26 06:49:37 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- The example sentence comes from the PhD these indicated as Reference.

The Aporetics of Existential Meaning For present purposes, an aporia is a set of propositions each member of which has a strong claim on our acceptance, but whose members are collectively inconsistent.
