profound departure

German translation: deutliche Abkehr

16:09 Sep 28, 2011
English to German translations [PRO]
Science - Philosophy / Gewebekultur
English term or phrase: profound departure
Kontext:

"Some of the new scientific developments present a profound departure from philosophical perceptions of what life is."

Es geht hier um Entwicklungen in der Genforschung und die damit verbundenen Konsequenzen.
Ich hätte es mit Abkehr übersetzt, allerdings gibt es wenige Adjektive, die mit Abkehr kollokieren.
Ich freue mich über Tips und Ideen.
