- Summary:
- Problems that face the humanities discipline today have sparked an intense debate across the globe. The theory of the transformative humanities envisions a domain of inquiry that attempts to transform cultures, individuals and society. This volume explores different theoretical perspectives and practical orientations through which to perceive, innovate and transform the world in which we live. It opens up diverse fields of thinking and research, and offers a wider perspective on how a critical-literary approach could be deployed in addressing the multidimensional and evolutionary nature of the humanities in a way that caters to the needs of the present. A compilation of scholarly essays on topics as diverse as post-millennial theory, trans-humanities, posthumanism, interdisciplinarity, psychoanalysis and film studies, the book provides an enabling platform for intellectuals, research scholars and experts in the humanities to tap into the transformative potential of the field.
