Using the sf of Robert Holdstock, David Zindell and Kathleen Ann Goonan as starting points, new forms of embodiment in the context of the cyborg and the shaman's shared narrative of radical boundary dissolution are critically and imaginatively examined. Throughout this thesis, the works of Deleuze and Guattari, Sadie Plant, Manuel De Landa, Erik Davis, Donna Haraway, Terence McKenna, and other speculative theorists who operate at the nexus of technological culture and the shamanic imagination serve as guidelines. / English Studies / M.A. Zindell Goonan Boundary-dissolution Posthumanism Embodiment Holdstock Science-fiction Technology Cyborg Shaman 813.0876209356 Cybernetics in literature Cyborgs in literature Technical writing -- Research Technology in literature
