Nietzsche's Posthumanism (True ePUB)

A timely and trenchant commentary on the centrality of Nietzsche's thought for our time
While many posthumanists claim Nietzsche as one of their own, rarely do they engage his philosophy in any real depth. Nietzsche's Posthumanism addresses this need by exploring the continuities and disagreements between Nietzsche's philosophy and contemporary posthumanism. Focusing specifically on Nietzsche's reception of the life sciences of his day and his reflections on technology-research areas as central to Nietzsche's work as they are to posthumanism-Edgar Landgraf provides fresh readings of Nietzsche and a critique of post- and transhumanist philosophies.
Through Landgraf's inquiry, lesser-known aspects of Nietzsche's writings emerge, including the neurophysiological basis of his epistemology (which anticipates contemporary debates on embodiment), his concerns with insects and the emergent social properties they exhibit, and his reflections on the hominization and cultivation effects of technology. In the process, Landgraf challenges major commonplaces about Nietzsche's philosophy, including the idea that his social theory asserts the rights of "the strong" over "the weak." The ethos of critical posthumanism also offers a new perspective on key ethical and political contentions of Nietzsche's writings.
Nietzsche's Posthumanism presents a uniquely framed introduction to tenets of Nietzsche's thought and major trends in posthumanism, making it an essential exploration for anyone invested in Nietzsche and his contemporary relevance, and in posthumanism and its genealogy.
