dc.abstract.enThe paper addresses a few aspects of approaches embracing the nonhuman in literary and cultural studies and in theoretical approaches associated with the category of posthumanism. I connect such approaches with post-structural theories, finding in them connections with the later readings of the Anthropocene and their critique of anthropocentrism. Roland Barthes’s “deauthoration” of literary works clearly gestures towards an opening to the other, which in more recent approaches has been adapted into complex networks and connections with Donna Haraway’s companion species. Similarly, Derrida’s problematization of the division into inside and outside takes part in looking for reconnections with broadly understood environmental thinking. My task is to show that variously labelled critical and post-critical discourses can hardly be divided into separate, specialized disciplinary fields, but constitute a network, or a composition, of proposals addressing the spectre of the necessity of changing the great divide of man and nature.
