دانلود کتاب Bodies in Flux: Embodiments at the End of Anthropocentrism

This volume offers an insight into a selection of current issues of embodiment and other related aspects, such as identity, gender, disability, or sexuality, discussed on the basis of examples from contemporary culture and social life. Inspired by Donna Haraway's concept of the cyborg as a transgressor of boundaries, the book examines fluidity of post-human bodies - from cyber relations to others and to self, enabled by the latest technologies, through fragmented, prostheticised, monstrous or augmented body of popular culture and lifestyles, to the dis/utopian fantasies offered by literary texts - showing how difficult it still is in current culture to let go of the stable boundaries towards the post-gender world Haraway imagines.Contributors are Dawn Wooley, Anna Pili ska, Barbara Braid, Jana Reynolds, Julio Ernesto Guerrero Mondaca, Ana Gabriela Magallanes Rodríguez, Katharina Vester, Wojciech mieja and Hanan Muzaffar.
