Man Against Being: Global online book launch
About
Join us as Lierre Keith launches aurora linnea's new book MAN AGAINST BEING: BODY HORROR AND THE DEATH OF LIFE.The book traces body horror as the through line that unifies manmade society’s hallmark oppressions and atrocities. Moving from the mind/body separation that is patriarchal doctrine’s starting point to the brutal subjugation of all creatures scapegoated as bad bodies so men can play at being pure minds, from ‘born in the wrong body’ to the transhumanists' dreamt-of ascent into bodiless virtuality.
Drawing on a holistic ecofeminist analysis of male dominion’s cascading devastations, aurora linnea argues with poetic insight that, if men are determined to do away with bodies and biological life, the antidote to patriarchy’s apocalyptic charter must necessarily involve a return to the flesh and blood of matter, a reintegration of body and mind and living earth.
