Abstract

The aim of the article is to present a new tendency of humanities (transhumanism, posthumanism, new materialism) in the educational context. In the first part, the relationships between Polish language teaching in primary and secondary schools and literary studies are characterized in historical order. The school and university cooperation allows to conserve suitable impact on the pupils’ knowledge, skills, and their moral attitude to contemporary reality. Scientific support of school curricula is today very urgent because we are living in a chaotic reality that Zygmunt Bauman called liquid modernity. The classical patterns of knowledge and authority have been disappearing for dozens of decades. Moreover, we live in “a realm” of big data, rapid processes of digitalization, and a plethora of information. The second part of the article relates to different subjects of anthropology of literature, first of all transhumanism, posthumanism, and new materialism, which allow us to demonstrate the human condition in a new light. A teacher, using the tools of the new humanities, while reading literary texts, can indicate the natural relationships between man and the natural environment: plants, animals, terrain, climate.
