Imaginarios y ficciones de la muerte en la posmodernidad

This essay analyses the exchange and lability between the fictional representations of death in the context of a postmodern culture, where an artificial intelligence and other cultural and scientific currents have remodelled basic notions such as ideas of spirit or death.Post-humanism assumes a new horizon by emphasising the new relationships between people, animals and machines and is preceded by the Crank Arm Pair visions of trans-humanism, which implies an inversion of traditional world views about the body and death.The hypothesis of the present work is Shirts the techno-scientific imaginaries, through futurist fiction in particular, have remodelled the idea of death that goes from being a fatum to an anomaly or mechanism that can be corrected with science.We can conclude that many of the utopias recreated in the imaginaries are techno-utopias typical of post-modernity, and in that aspect, these post-modern representations of death continue to have meaning as an expression of a millenarianism and a collective catharsis that reconcile the rational and irrational dimension.
