This article probes the ambiguity of a posthuman heroism by revisiting the remarkable story of Pippi Longstocking. The purpose is to explore with Pippi a non-anthropocentric living in the more-than-human world. Its critical posthumanist analysis is empirically it is based on the American English translation of the Pippi book trilogy from the 1950s, as well as the Swedish TV-series produced in 1969. Pippi’s posthuman power here serves to conceptualize a move beyond the anthropocentric savior-complex. The analysis exhibit a power used to defy, mock and resist authority, but always with the purpose of securing agency for Pippi and her community. This power-to, rather than power-over, becomes a creative force that builds a posthuman community between inorganic matter, human and nonhuman animals. In place of a heroism to save our planet, Pippi animates how to relate differently to the more-than-human world. She is a productive fantasy, an idea materialized – a posthuman figuration – that extends the notion of community, opens up the demos, and forcefully challenges anthropocentric normativity.
