The Philosophy of the Posthuman: A Critical Reading of Francesca Ferrando’s "Philosophical Posthumanism and its Others"
Abstract
This essay aims at explaining what we mean when we talk about philosophy of post-humanism, and is based on the book Il Postumanesimo filosofico e le sue alterità [Philosophical Posthumanism and its alterities] by Francesca Ferrando. After describing the birth of the concept of posthuman, this paper analyzes its main features following Ferrando's essay, and brings to the fore its differences from the concept of transhuman.Downloads
