Sinopse

Adaptingnbsp;The Tempest:nbsp;Explorations innbsp;Ecophenomenologynbsp;examines five female-authored novelizations ofnbsp;The Tempest, showing how they engage the play in a spirit of transgressive dialogism.nbsp;A major through-line linking each chapter is the articulation of an updated self, one that encompasses the biological and the psychological. Philosopher Thomas Metzingerrsquo;s lucid theorization of selfhood seeds this studyrsquo;s approach. A dedicated materialist, Metzinger nonetheless addresses the interiorizing that defines humanness. This book extends Metzingerrsquo;s theories by arguing for ecophenomenology, which harmonizes awareness of humansrsquo; embedment in the world with the storytelling and reflective consciousness that define our species. Re-readingnbsp;The Tempestnbsp;in tandem with the five novels demonstrates the benefits of an ecophenomenological approach to selfhood.
