项目摘要

This project links theories of posthuman embodiment and representations of gender in postwar British fiction by recognising an embedded, relational body as a radical presence in the fiction of Muriel Spark, Barbara Comyns, Barbara Pym and Angela Carter. My approach facilitates a new understanding of the becoming-subject in fiction that spans the margins of human and posthuman conceptions of being. The project works with the metaphysics of Gilles Deleuze and the theories of Feminist New Materialism to uncover the presence of an emerging posthumanism, characterised by moment-to-moment actualisation and shifting materiality. In paying particular attention to the gendered subject, it demonstrates that a posthuman becoming is realisable from within a human paradigm, bringing human and posthuman into critical conversation. In doing so, it articulates a previously unheard challenge from fiction of this period to liberal humanism, a challenge which integrates both a critique of gendered power and a relationality which transcends the dualities of masculine/feminine and human/posthuman.The research questions are:1. How does fiction embody a posthuman becoming-subject within a human paradigm?2. What is the role of an interconnected body in fiction which crosses the boundary between human and nonhuman?3. What is the relationship between narrative and the body in fiction which challenges the category of human?4. What does an investigation of fiction from this period tell us about how the human is conceptualised in post-war culture?

这个项目链接后人类的体现和性别在战后英国小说的表征理论，通过识别嵌入式，关系的身体作为一个激进的存在，在穆里尔火花，芭芭拉科明斯，芭芭拉皮姆和安吉拉卡特的小说。我的方法有助于对小说中的生命主体进行新的理解，这种理解跨越了人类和后人类对存在的概念的边缘。该项目与Gilles Deleuze的形而上学和女权主义新唯物主义的理论合作，揭示了一种新兴的后人类主义的存在，其特征是时刻的实现和不断变化的物质性。在特别关注性别主题时，它表明，后人类成为可以从人类范式中实现，将人类和后人类带入批判性对话。在这样做的时候，它阐明了一个以前从未听说过的挑战，从这一时期的小说，以自由人文主义，一个挑战，它集成了性别权力的批判和超越男性/女性和人类/后人类的二重性的关系。小说如何在人类范式中体现一个后人类的生命主体？2.在小说中，一个跨越人类和非人类界限的相互联系的身体扮演着什么样的角色？3.在挑战人类范畴的小说中，叙事与身体的关系是什么？4.对这一时期的小说进行调查，可以告诉我们战后文化中人类是如何被概念化的？
