Shortlisted for the AATSEEL 2022 Award for Best Edited Multi-Author Scholarly Volume (AATSEEL is The American Association of Teachers of Slavic and East European Languages) Theory in the "e;Post"e; Era brings together the work and perspectives of a group of Romanian theorists who discuss the morphings of contemporary theory in what the editors call the "e;post"e; era. Since the Cold War's end and especially in the third millennium, theorists have been exploring the aftermath - and sometimes just the "e;after"e; - of whole paradigms, the crisis or "e;passing"e; of anthropocentrism, the twilight of an entire ontological and cultural "e;condition,"e; as well as the corresponding rise of an antagonist model, of an "e;anti,"e; "e;meta,"e; or "e;neo"e; alternative, with examples ranging from "e;posthumanism"e; and "e;post-postmodernism"e; to "e;post-aesthetics,"e; "e;postanalog"e; interpretation or "e;digicriticism,"e; "e;post-presentism,"e; "e;post-memory,"e; "e;post-"e; or "e;neo-critique,"e; and so forth. It is no coincidence, the contributors to this volume argue, that this "e;post"e; moment is also a time when theory is practiced as a world genre. If theory has always been a "e;worlded"e; enterprise, a quintessentially communal, cross-cultural and international project, this is truer at present than ever. Perhaps more than other humanist constituencies, today's theorists work and belong in a theory commons that is transnational if still uneven economically, politically, and otherwise. Theory in the "e;Post"e; Era reports the results of Romanian theory experiments that join efforts made in other places to foster a theory for the "e;post"e; age.
