Beschreibung
Transhumanism foregrounds technological enhancement and transcendence, while cyberpunk engages with corporate power, social inequality, and bodily alienation. Their intersections, tensions, and contradictions open multiple perspectives on the changing meanings of the human. "Transhumanism and Cyberpunk: Imagining Human Futures in Literature and Media", a volume in the "Interdisciplinary Studies on Philology" series, brings together interdisciplinary perspectives on technological transformation and its implications for human identity, embodiment, agency, and social structures. Drawing on literary and film studies, media theory, visual semiotics, and cultural studies, the volume explores literature, cinema, anime, speculative fiction, digital art, and contemporary technological practices. Its contributions examine how visions of biological enhancement, artificial intelligence, cybernetic bodies, ecological crisis, and posthuman existence are imagined and contested across diverse cultural contexts. Extending the discussion across diverse cultural and disciplinary contexts, the volume presents human futurity as a dynamic and contested space.
