Description

Posthumanism in Art and Science: A Reader explores the intersection of philosophy, literature, and art in response to technological advancements, globalization, and mass extinction. This anthology brings together groundbreaking thinkers and innovative artists who challenge traditional notions of human identity and the Anthropocene. Featuring contributions from leading theorists such as Donna Haraway, Rosi Braidotti, and Timothy Morton, alongside influential artists like Yvonne Rainer and Skawennati, this collection provides a comprehensive mapping of posthumanist thought in a global context. The works included offer provocative insights into the ongoing conceptual and political challenge of posthumanism, speaking to the need for rethinking anthropocentric certitudes and envisioning equitable futures. As an essential resource for educators, students, artists, and art enthusiasts, this volume offers a powerful framework for reimagining our relationship with the world around us.
