Ontology and Closeness in Human-Nature Relationships

Beyond Dualisms, Materialism and Posthumanism

Produktform: Buch / Einband - fest (Hardcover)

Given the diversity of fields and disciplines focused on the human-nature relationship, the topics of this book vary quite broadly, but always converge at the nexus of what is possible between humans and more-than-human beings.  The discussion interweaves the influence of human/nature dualisms with the limitations of Deleuzian becoming and posthumanism’s new materialism and agential realism.  It leverages interhuman interdependence theory, Charles Peirce’s synechism of feeling and various treatments of Theory of Mind while exploring the influence of human/nature dualisms on sustainability, place attachment, common worlds pedagogy, emergence, and critical animal studies.  It also explores the implications of plant electrical activity, plant intelligence, and plant “neurobiology” for possibilities of relational capacities in plants while even grappling with theories of animism to challenge the animate/inanimate divide.  The result is an engaging, novel treatment of human-nature relational ontology that will encourage the reader to look at the world in a whole new way. weiterlesen
