Rooted on a thorough understanding of the history of philosophy, this work builds on critical and ontological thought to interpret the concept of life that underscores first-hand dealings with matter and experimentation. The book breaks new ground on the issue of animality and delivers fresh posthumanist perspectives on the topics addressed. The authors embark on a deep ontological probe of the concept of medium as communication-bridging and life-bearing. They also take on the concept of performativity as biotechnological art. The book includes concrete, well-documented case studies and shows how certain narratives and practices directly impact ideas surrounding science and technologies. It will interest philosophers in art and technology, aesthetics, ontology, and the life sciences. It will also engage art practitioners in art and science, curators and researchers. 001470099 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed July 10, 2023). 001470099 650_0 $$aBiotechnology$$xPhilosophy. 001470099 650_0 $$aArt and biology. 001470099 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001470099 7001_ $$aTratnik, Polona. 001470099 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aGonzález Valerio, María Antonia.$$tThrough the Scope of Life$$dCham : Springer International Publishing AG,c2023$$z9783031317354 001470099 830_0 $$aPhilosophical studies series ;$$vv. 153. 001470099 852__ $$bebk 001470099 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-031-31736-1$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001470099 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1470099$$pGLOBAL_SET 001470099 980__ $$aBIB 001470099 980__ $$aEBOOK 001470099 982__ $$aEbook 001470099 983__ $$aOnline 001470099 994__ $$a92$$bISE
