Rezension

“Life Writing in the Posthuman Anthropocene is one of the most recent additions to this ‘transversal field of knowledge’ … . This collection of essays grapples with the challenge of repositioning life writing—a genre traditionally grounded in a human perspective and ostensibly anthropocentric by nature—within the context of the Anthropocene, the current geological age in which human activity has altered and damaged the environment, climate, and ecology of the planet on a scale previously unimaginable.” (Louis van den Hengel, Biography, Vol. 46 (2), 2023)


“Life Writing in the Posthuman Anthropocene is a down-to-earth (quite literally) posthumanist account that substitutes speculative futurism for a much-needed socioecological sensitivity. Students of the aging process would be inspired by the ways in which their object is put into perspective … . The book would also benefit anyone interested in the intersection between environmental and biographical studies … .” (João Pedro Martinez Pinheiro, Anthropology & Aging, Vol. 44 (1), 2023)
