Summary
The notion of the posthuman continues to both intrigue and confuse, not least because of the huge number of ideas, theories and figures associated with this term. More Posthuman Glossary provides a way in to the dizzying array of posthuman concepts, providing vivid accounts of emerging terms. It is much more than a series of definitions, however, in that it seeks to imagine and predict what new terms might come into being as this exciting field continues to expand.
A follow-up volume to the brilliant interventions of Posthuman Glossary (2018), this book extends and elaborates on that work, particularly focusing on concepts of race, indigeneity and new ideas in radical ecology. It also includes new and emerging voices within the new humanities and multiple modes of communicating ideas.
This is an indispensible glossary for those who are exploring what the non-human, inhuman and posthuman might mean in the 21st century.
Foreword
The sequel to Posthuman Glossary which extends and elaborates on emerging concepts within the posthumanities.
Additional text
How are we to navigate the world today? The editors of More Posthuman Glossary adopt the Stengerian strategy of forming relays. The question is no longer whether to render explicit or clarify what would remain implicit. It is about “consolidating just a little more”, always a little more with every new entry in the glossary. Encore!
