Monkey on back - Adam Wiesner
With a conscious attempt to contribute to contemporary discussions in mad/trans/queer/ monster studies, the monograph approaches complex postmodern theories and contextualizes them from an autoethnographic methodological perspective. Reflexively written, it does not solely focus on a personal experience, as it also aims at bridging the gap between the individual and the collective in times of global uncertainty. As the self-explanatory subtitle reads, the book introduces several topics as revelatory fields for the author’s self-exploration at the moment of an intense epistemological and ontological crisis.
Through introducing alternative ways of hermeneutics and meaning-making, the book offers a synthesis of postmodern philosophy and therapy, evolutionary astrology as a symbolic language, embodied inquiry, and Buddhist thought that together represent a critical attempt to challenge the pathologizing discursive practices of modern, Western disciplines during the neoliberal capitalist era. There are no solid outcomes defined; nevertheless, the narrative points to a certain—more fluid—way out.
