This session aims to outline the key concepts and the methodological innovations introduced by posthuman critical theory, defined as the convergence of critiques of Humanism and critiques of
Anthropocentrism. In addition to the quantitative aspects – new themes and objects of enquiries, what does posthuman scholarship contribute to contemporary debates in the new Humanities? What sort
of qualitative transformations does it entail?
The class will focus on Braidotti’s neomaterialist, critical feminist posthuman theory in a cross and trans-disciplinary perspective. The participants will be invited to discuss and present work related to their
own research topics and experiences.
