Biography

Chris Danta is an Honorary Professor at the University of New South Wales, specializing in Comparative Literature. He completed his BA at the Australian National University, his Honours at the University of Melbourne, and received his PhD from Monash University. Danta's research operates at the intersection of literary theory, philosophy, science, and theology, and he identifies as a literary anthropologist. His work engages literary writers in rethinking the means of human existence through various knowledge systems, including religion and science. His notable books include 'Literature Suspends Death: Sacrifice, Storytelling, Kierkegaard, Kafka, Blanchot' and 'Animal Fables: Darwin, Literature, Speciesism, Metaphor.' He is currently involved in an ARC Future Fellowship project titled 'Future Fables: Literature, Evolution, Artificial Intelligence,' focusing on how post-Darwin literary imagination contends with anxieties surrounding artificial intelligence.
