As technological, ecological, and sociopolitical transformations challenge traditional notions of human identity, the posthuman paradigm offers a framework for exploring how literature and culture imagine, negotiate, and problematise the boundaries between humans, nonhumans, and their surroundings. This conference seeks to critically examine established notions of a posthuman future/present and its representations in contemporary narratives across literature, cinema, advertising, video games, and other media forms. The seminar examines the concepts of authority, marginality, and ambiguity within dystopian and utopian literary visions of posthumanism. We invite papers that explore the complex nuances that characterise these narratives, and consider how literature reflects and re-shapes diverse visions of posthumanism from varying socio-cultural and historical viewpoints. In examining these intersections, the conference seeks to foreground how posthumanism is articulated, represented, and contested in the ever-changing modern ethos.
