Eschatology and the Technological Future - University of Oxford - Bog

Bag om Eschatology and the Technological Future

The rapid advancement of technology has led to an explosion of speculative theories about what the future of humankind may look like. This text seeks to contextualize the growing literature on the cultural, philosophical and religious implications of technological growth by considering technological futurisms such as transhumanism in the context of the long historical tradition of technological dreaming. Burdett traces the latent religious sources of our contemporary technological imagination by looking at visionary approaches to technology and the future in seminal technological utopias and science fiction, and formulates a contemporary Christian response to transhumanism.
