Literatura y posthumanismos
Editado por Rafael Arce y Julieta Yelin, acaba de salir por Ediciones UNL en versión digital de acceso libre ese volumen espectacular que incluye contribuciones, además de un servidor, de Paula Fleisner, Gabriel Giorgi, Martín de Mauro Rucovsky y les editores. Reúne ensayos desde disciplinas diversas que indagan en cómo la literatura y el pensamiento crítico de la región procesan el colapso de las fronteras entre lo humano, lo animal, lo vegetal y lo tecnológico. A través de cinco secciones temáticas, el libro recorre problemas urgentes como la ética de la “vegetalidad”, las estéticas de la sobrevida, las ficciones especulativas, las políticas de la alteridad y las genealogías de una crítica literaria posthumanista.

New book series
SubAtlantic: Latin American, Caribbean, and Luso-African Ecologies
Together with Gabriel Giorgi (NYU) and Victoria Saramago, I am co-editing an exciting new book series with De Gruyter-Brill. We accept submissions in English, Spanish, and Portuguese!
In stratigraphy, “Subatlantic” refers to the climatic age the end of which we are currently living through. The SubAtlantic series challenges us to cross-map climate history and environmental crisis with the world-ecological chronotope of the Iberian South Atlantic.
While colonial expansion triggered monocrop plantations, extractive networks, genocide and enslavement, this world-ecological formation has also been a hotbed of resilient imaginaries of survivance and alliance-making among existents, from Caribbean Maroon ecologies to the multinaturalist ontologies of Amazonian and Andean societies as well as their reconfigurations in contemporary activisms and artistic practice.
Spanning the field in its geographical and historical breadth, as well as challenging polarized cartographies between North/South or center/periphery, we welcome submissions in the environmental humanities that are conversant with areas of innovation and expansion, including but not limited to animal, plant and fungal studies; energy humanities; hydroaesthetics; art-science activisms; transfeminist and queer ecocriticisms.
For inquiries or to submit a proposal, please email subat@degruyterbrill.com
