Book Prosthetic Culture

Download or read book Prosthetic Culture written by Celia Lury and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-02-01 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a fascinating account of how technology is altering our consciousness, Celia Lury shows how the manipulation of photographic images and ways of seeing can so redefine the relation between consciousness, the body and memory as to create a 'prosthetic culture' whose capacities both extend and threaten our humanity. We live in a society in which some memories can be falsely implanted in the individual while others are stored in video archives of images, in which the powers of cartoon superheroes break through the limitations of time and space. Using the examples of photo-therapy, family albums, Benetton advertising campaigns, the phenomenon of false memory syndrome and the 'lives' of cartoon characters this book argues that the 'eyes' made available by contemporary visual technologies involve not simply specific ways of seeing, but also ways of life.

In his trek to find out why he ended up in his current unwanted predicament, he experiences kindness from others, anger against himself, lust, greed, loneliness and perhaps, most importantly, forbidden love. He eventually realizes that in the final analyses love triumphs over death, or is it life?

He is currently teaching Literature and Philosophy at the College of Southern Nevada in Las Vegas. He is also the author of Godmaker, The Book Of Aloneness and The Book Of Remembrance.

Book Transcultural Anglophone Studies

Download or read book Transcultural Anglophone Studies written by Martina Ghosh-Schellhorn and published by LIT Verlag Münster. This book was released on 2018 with total page 383 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Transcultural Anglophone Studies (TAS) engages with the cultural production of speakers of World English in any part of the former British Empire, and the migrational diasporas resulting thereof. Anglophone texts - in print or other media - have had a tremendous impact despite their relatively `belated' entry to the cultural field. Since TAS forms a vast, heteronomous research area, this Introduction is a first guide for students and researchers. In providing analytical tools for engaging with these exceptional texts, it situates them in the larger context of globalization and neocolonialism.
