Methods and Genealogies of New Materialisms

Beschreibung

This cumulative work brings together a range of research communities to contextualize and archive over a decade of work in new materialist theorising and knowledge-making practice. Combining a reflective genealogical approach along with productive avenues for future research, this volume is an essential collection for the field of new and feminist materialism. The collection uses the new materialist movements in thought of changing, intersecting, practicing and transforming. As methods, these movements have engendered the metaphysical questions that different new and feminist materialist practices engage. The volume follows these four movements for genealogical, interdisciplinary, arts-based and politics-orienting research in four parts, each of which is preceded by an introductory framing-essay. Rosi Braidotti's preface provides revelatory mappings to bring the book together and curated panels further offer co-authored texts which practise the collective nature of academic thinking advocated by the feminist new materialisms network. Key features: Consolidates new materialisms as a distinguished field of scholarship Brings together contributors from Central-, North-, and South-Eastern and Southern Europe, Australia and North America and is inclusive of Black Asian and indigenous scholarship Provides consonant, dissonant and feminist genealogies of the state of the field Focuses on the methodological nature of the materiality and meaning-making nexus. Felicity Colman is Professor of Media Arts at University of the Arts, London. Iris van der Tuin is Professor of Theory of Cultural Inquiry at Utrecht University, The Netherlands. Together they chaired COST Action IS1307 New Materialism: Networking European Scholarship on 'How Matter Comes to Matter' (2014-18).
