The volume brings together lucid philosophical discussions on the nature of subjectivity with analyses of texts as diverse as Perumal Murugan''s Poonachi, John Banville''s Eclipse and Shroud, Ted Hughes''s poetry, and Salman Rushdie''s Shame, among many others.
Posthumanism constructs a posthumanist subject through philosophy, critical theory and literature. It tracks diverse developments of posthumanisms – from anti-humanism to poststructuralism and psychoanalysis – using micro-readings of literary narratives to situate posthumanist ideas and establish an interpretive praxis. Underlining the ethico-political strand, Posthumanism: Politics of Subjectivity demonstrates how to imagine a posthuman socio-political subject that renounces claims to species supremacy and anthropocentric privilege via the categories of animality, object, technology and ecology.
