As humans re-negotiate their boundaries with the nonhuman world of animals,
inanimate entities and technological artefacts, new identities are formed and a
new epistemological and ethical approach to reality is needed. Through twelve
thought-provoking, scholarly essays, this volume analyzes works by a range of
modern and contemporary Italian authors, from Giacomo Leopardi to Elena
Ferrante, who have captured the shift from anthropocentrism and postmodernism
to posthumanism. Indeed, this is the first academic volume investigating narrative
configurations of posthuman identity in Italian literature and film.
