The aim of the essay is to analyze the practice of “multispecies storytelling” pro- posed by Haraway (2016), to extrapolate tools for the creative critique of the narrative of the «Anthropocene» (Crtuzen, Stoemer 2000). The essay starts by deconstructing the dichoto- mous and patriarchal imaginaries linked to the “uncanny” (Freud 1919) and the “sublime” (Burke 1757; Kant 1790); subsequently, it shows how Haraway engages in composting al- ternative stories of technology and science, thanks to the adoption of the SF methodology; finally, it analyzes the speculative fabulation entitled The Camille Stories, to appreciate the troubling polyphony and polysemy of “multispecies realism” (Pinto 2021).

Abstract
The aim of the essay is to analyze the practice of “multispecies storytelling” pro- posed by Haraway (2016), to extrapolate tools for the creative critique of the narrative of the «Anthropocene» (Crtuzen, Stoemer 2000). The essay starts by deconstructing the dichoto- mous and patriarchal imaginaries linked to the “uncanny” (Freud 1919) and the “sublime” (Burke 1757; Kant 1790); subsequently, it shows how Haraway engages in composting al- ternative stories of technology and science, thanks to the adoption of the SF methodology; finally, it analyzes the speculative fabulation entitled The Camille Stories, to appreciate the troubling polyphony and polysemy of “multispecies realism” (Pinto 2021).I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
