Abstract

Reconfiguring Human, Nonhuman and Posthuman in Literature and Culture by Sanna Karkulehto, Aino-Kaisa Koistinen, and Essi Varis presents an array of theoretical and analytical approaches that encourage the reader to move beyond the traditional anthropocentric assumptions that still dominate literary and cultural studies. Five sections dedicated to different ways of understanding the nonhuman explore alternative models of the human/nonhuman relationship, while investigating contemporary cultural objects, including fiction, videogames, and experimental design.

Reconfiguring Human, Nonhuman and Posthuman in Literature and Culture, herausgegeben von Sanna Karkulehto, Aino-Kaisa Koistinen und Essi Varis, liefert ein Bouquet theoretischer und analytischer Zugänge, die dazu ermutigen, sich über die traditionellen anthropozentrischen Annahmen, die die literatur- und kulturwissenschaftliche Forschung noch immer dominieren, hinwegzusetzen. In fünf Kapiteln werden anhand der Erforschung zeitgenössischer Kulturobjekte Alternativmodelle der menschlich-nichtmenschlichen Beziehungen aus der Perspektive des Posthumanismus aufgezeigt.
