This edited volume explores the intersections of the human, nonhuman, transhuman, and posthuman from a phenomenological perspective. Representing perspectives from several disciplines, these investigations take a closer look at the relationship between the phenomenology of life, creative ontopoiesis, and otherness; technology and the human; art and the question of humanity; nonhumans, animals, and intentionality; and transhumanism. Ontological positioning of the human is reconsidered with regard to the nonhuman, transhuman, and posthuman within the cosmos. Further examination of the artificial and object in the lifeworld is also explored. This volume also pays tribute to Anna-Teresa Tymieniecka and her methodical contributions to phenomenology. This text appeals to students and researchers of phenomenology worldwide.

Dr. Jadwiga S. Smith is emerita Professor of English at Bridgewater State University where she has worked for thirty-two years. She earned two master’s degrees in European and Slavic literatures from Jagiellonian University in Krakow, Poland, where she developed an early interest in phenomenology. Graduate studies took Dr. Smith to Duquesne University, where she earned a Ph.D. in English literature; she wrote her dissertation on the phenomenology of Roman Ingarden and its application to the stage play. She has continued to publish countless scholarly articles on phenomenology, literary theory, and drama in the Analecta Husserliana, the Phenomenological Inquiry, and other journals.
In the early 1980s, Dr. Smith began working with Dr. Anna-Teresa Tymieniecka and became a major collaborator in the World Phenomenology Institute. After Dr. Tymieniecka’s death, Dr. Smith became the WPI President for the American Division. She continues this important work today, organizing and administering conferences, conducting and leading conferences, and editing volumes of the Analecta Husserliana: The Yearbook of Phenomenological Research.&nbs
