عنوان فارسی Assemblages of Power: Material Agency, Posthumanism, and the Ecology of Shakespeare’s The Tempest
چکیده فارسی مقاله This article examines Shakespeare’s The Tempest in the context of posthumanism and material ecocriticism, arguing that the play anticipates the modern discourse of distributed agency and ecological interdependence. It will show how The Tempest subverts the classical categories of Renaissance humanism by examining Prospero’s interaction with the natural elements, Ariel’s liminal being and Caliban’s ambivalence between culture and nature. By using Rosi Braidotti’s posthuman subject and Jane Bennett’s theory of vibrant materialism, the study explains how the play does not advocate anthropocentrism and is dominated by agency, sovereignty and consciousness. On the island, human and non-human actors appear as agentive assemblages and micropolitical sites of power relations. This understanding is based on three core elements: the physical materiality of the island and its agency, the way magic is performed by a range of people, and the representation of non-human consciousness in the play. This analysis locates The Tempest as an early modern text and a work of environmental humanities, allowing for a better understanding of non-human agency, existence in Braidotti’s posthumanism and anthropology. The play does not negatively engage with the nexus of magic, nature and human export, but uses it to reinforce its exploration of global warming, ecological justice and human agency. This notion expands the field of history and politics of Shakespeare and the followers of ecological thinking by helping them understand the historical rootedness of ecological thinking without transcending the rationally imposed concerns common in our time.
