Class Overview

Students will examine key texts that critique classical humanism, tracing the roots of human exceptionalism and exploring how modern technology, environmental changes, and scientific revelations reshape our understanding of what it means to be human.
Key Readings Include:
- *The Posthuman* by Rosi Braidotti (2013) — Mapping posthuman subjectivity and ethics.
- *Staying with the Trouble* by Donna Haraway (2016) — Sympoiesis and co-existence on a damaged planet.
- *Meeting the Universe Halfway* by Karen Barad (2007) — Agential realism and quantum entanglement.
