Ewolucja człowieczeństwa. Francesca Ferrando, Philosophical Posthumanism. (Theory in the New Humanities)
Philosophical Posthumanism is a unique intellectual proposition – one in which Francesca Ferrando not only presents and expands but also celebrates posthumanist thought. The monograph is an open invitation to explore new horizons by de-familiarizing classical humanist thought embedded within the Western civilization. Explicitly deconstructing classical humanism, Ferrando offers her readership a versatile insight into the complexity of the polyphony of new voices including, but not limited to, Posthumanism, Transhumanism, and Antihumanism – contributing to the discourse, which, as the author affirms, is tantamount to the “philosophy of our time.”Filozoficzny posthumanizm to wyjątkowa propozycja intelektualna – taka, w której Francesca Ferrando nie tylko prezentuje i rozwija, ale też celebruje myśl posthumanistyczną. Monografia jest otwartym zaproszeniem do odkrywania nowych horyzontów poprzez od-swajanie klasycznej myśli humanistycznej, osadzonej w cywilizacji zachodniej. Wyraźnie dekonstruując klasyczny humanizm, Ferrando oferuje swoim czytelnikom wszechstronny wgląd w złożoność polifonii nowych głosów, w tym m.in. posthumanizmu, transhumanizmu i antyhumanizmu – współtworząc dyskurs, który - jak twierdzi autorka - jest tożsamy z “filozofią naszych czasów”

Posthuman Glasses for Nomadic Subjectivities: a Comment on “Il postumanesimo filosofico e le sue alterità (Philosophical Posthumanism and Its Others)”, by Francesca Ferrando
To read the current development of Posthuman Studies we need new glasses, that is to say a new conceptual framework. In order to develop it, Francesca Ferrando refers to the patient work of “artisans-philosophers” who came from the past (or just returned from the future). Sometimes an idea is born before its time. The quiet, constant act of intrepid thinkers breaks the continuity, and the rigidity of Kronos’ line, revealing its truth and effectiveness only many centuries later. Critical genealogies, as Il postumanesimo filosofico e le sue alterità (Ferrando 2016) 1, help keeping track of the openings determined by concepts in the course of their development. Without this kind of genealogy, the present overtakes at full speed our ability to understand it. All the more so today that new media and bio-technologies have become viral and pervasive, contributing to erode the old categories of subject, man, knowledge and power. […
