Contributors reflect on how Latin American and Latinx speculative art conceptualizes the operations of other, non-human forms of agency, and engages in environmentalist theory in ways that are estranging and open to new forms of species companionship. Essays cover literature, film, TV shows, and music, grouped in three sections: “Posthumanist Subjects” examines Latin(x) American iterations of some of the most common figurations of the posthuman, such as the cyborg and virtual environments and selves; “Slow Violence and Environmental Threats” understands that posthumanist meditations in the hemisphere take place in a material and cultural context shaped by the catastrophic destruction of the environment; the chapters in “Posthumanist Others” shows how the reimagination of the self and the world that posthumanism offers may be an opportunity to break the hold thatoppressive systems have over the ways in which societies are constructed and governed.. | 出版日期 | Book 2023 | 关键词 | Science Fiction; speculative fiction; Latin(x) authors; posthumanism; Global South; non-human animals; Lit | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-11791-6 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-031-11793-0 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-031-11791-6Series ISSN 2569-8826 Series E-ISSN 2569-8834 | issn_series | 2569-8826 | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerl |
