Posthuman Adventuring cover

Posthuman Adventuring immerses readers in a transdisciplinary methodology

that merges images and sounds to inspire ongoing dialogue and provoke

imaginative inquiry. Through a compilation of thought‑provoking chapters,

this book connects readers to original presentations by renowned posthuman

thinkers and offers responses from various authors.

This collection showcases groundbreaking posthuman research conducted

by scholars, artists, community‑based practitioners, and doctoral students

across diverse contexts, spanning from forced migration to intergenerational

relationships, from plants to bears, and from collective writing to reimagining

social structures. With its experimental practices and transformative encounters,

this unique anthology encourages readers to embark on their own intellectual

adventures and cultivate fresh concepts. Emphasizing the fluidity and

emergence of ideas, this book features chapters written by individuals and

collaborative groups, each opening new spaces of inquiry and experimentation.

The range of topics covered is vast, drawing inspiration from unexpected

sources such as crochet blankets, women’s football, trauma within Canadian

residential schools, sketchbooks, postverbal learning in dementia, and preschool

outings in Johannesburg. This book invites readers to speculate, make

connections, and invent their own concepts while showcasing the ongoing

actualization of ideas.

Ideal for scholars of posthumanist thinking across the social sciences.

'A generous, transdisciplinary collection of essays centred on research and engagement with theories of the more-than-human turn in diverse educational settings. The scholarly risk-taking and careful reading and writing by the authors offer insights and models for those of us interested in doing academia differently.'

Sarah Truman, Associate Professor, University of Melbourne

'Alfred North Whitehead famously wrote: “Philosophy begins in wonder. And at the end when philosophical thought has done its best the wonder remains.” Posthuman Adventures boldly meets the call of wonder, sidles it with care, and lets it do its work. In play, it asks how else thought can move (us) to the limit, how writing can write other ways of being into the world. It’s a joy to read.'
