Si la personnalité juridique s'éteint avec la vie, semble pourtant se manifester une persistance de la personne humaine en droit privé, dont il convient de rendre compte et qu'il s'agit d'analyser.

This thesis addresses the posthumanist problem of reconfiguring what and how the post/human means, rereading foundational binaries like human/nonhuman and life/nonlife as texts in themselves with a thickness that strains against the discursive structures that produce (and reduce) them as such. It attempts to petromorphically portray stone worlding without reverting to the assumed capacities of living (human) beings, suggesting a worlding that identifies the forces and intensities out of which “being,” stone and otherwise, emerges.

Alors que de nombreuses recherches ont déjà été menées sur le régime dictatorial mis en place par Dollfuß et repris après sa mort par Kurt Schuschnigg, aucun travail ne s’est porté jusqu’à présent sur le mythe entourant la figure de Dollfuß. Comment est née la controverse qui survit aujourd´hui autour de Dollfuß ? Sur quel

Abstract:
Whether in the guise of the novel or non-print media such as film and television, fin-de-millennium science fiction has provided opportunities to envisage a posthuman stage of evolution. The academic response to this has been polarized. Certain elements have embraced the genre as integral to the sociocultural relationship between unfettered biotechnological advance and the limitation of the human flesh. Others have treated the topic as fanciful entertainment, leading them to ignore and sometimes ridicule research on the posthuman. The thesis seeks to utilise the contemporary science fiction al

Abstract:
Through a posthuman approach to literacy education, I explore the Reggio Emilia pedagogy adopted by an independent South African primary school. Unlike the current emphasis in literacy pedagogy on language, standardised and individualised testing and universal curriculum approaches, Reggio Emilia pedagogy views child, learning and knowing not as separate from each other and from the world, but as entangled and always on the move. Moreover, Reggio Emilia-inspired schools celebrate the ‘hundred languages' of children, not just the spoken or written word, and involve children in an emergent curri

Abstract:
<p>Human reproductive cloning came to the public´s attention when Dolly the sheep was cloned in Scotland in 1997. This news quickly spread around the world causing both excitements at the possibilities of what cloning techniques could offer, as well as apprehension about the ethical, social and legal implications should human reproductive cloning become possible. Many international organisations and governments were concerned about the impact of human reproductive cloning on human health, dignity and human rights. To this day, many institutions have drafted resolutions, protocols and position

Abstract:
This project focuses on persistent gaps in philosophies of the body: the enduring mind-body divide in accounts of phenomenology, the unfulfilled promises of representing and inhabiting the body in online and virtual spaces, and the difference between health as quantified in medical discourse versus health as lived experience. These tensions are brought to light through the electronic food journal genre where the difficulty in capturing pre-noetic, outside-consciousness aspects of experience and embodied health are thrown into relief against circulating cultural discourses surrounding health, b

Abstract:
<p> Examining Whedon's cyborgs using Donna Haraway's essay "A Cyborg Manifesto: Science, Technology, and Socialist Feminism in the 1980s" and the literary theory of posthumanism, I examine which posthuman cyborg characters exhibit characteristics of villainy as well as those that display the antipodal characteristics of heroism. Haraway is well known as one of the earliest theorists to examine cyborgs in literature as transformative figures, and she is referenced in almost every cybernetic studies text available. Haraway's construction of the cyborg identity, which she deems essential for the

Abstract:
My research will consist of a literary investigation into changing representations of violence in the contemporary novel in the context of the paradigm shift from humanism to posthumanism, from reality to fiction. The core of my work, developed through the reading of some research in neuroscience, will concern the examination of the brain as metaphor machine. From here, I will argue that the problem of violence in relation to fiction today is due to the struggle in the human body between transcendence and immanence. The individual has a tendency to transcend reality and in so doing lives viole
