A new edited collection about a literary icon features not one but three familiar names in its table of contents. Hemingway and Posthumanism, published this past October by Edinburgh University Press, reveals new connections between the author and posthumanist thought.
Part I of the book - focused on nature - includes essays by two SWLF faculty members: "Hemingway, Fishing, and the problem of a Posthumanist Ecology," and Associate Professor Raymond Malewitz, who authored "Death and the 'Preserving Traveler': Reconsidering Posthumanism in Ernest Hemingway's 'A Natural History of the Dead.'"
Part II, which centers on animality, includes an essay by Instructor Marcos Norris titled "Beyond Humanity, Beyond Race in Ernest Hemingway's The Garden of Eden." Norris's essay is not his only contribution to the volume; he also co-edited with Ryan Hediger, Professor at Kent State University.
