Posthuman Interstellar Gothic
“Posthuman Interstellar Gothic” considers posthumanism in theory and in the gothic mode with and within science fiction to chart alternative futures and exit strategies out of our anthropic dystopia. Since the millennium, a clear trend towards encyclopaedic overviews in Gothic Studies has emerged. This writing proceeds on the premise that the kind of criticism that is called for right now is what is being shaped by our newest philosophers and cultural critics regards our communal futures. In the Posthuman Interstellar Gothic, victory over the Other is no longer the battle—remedying the mess the human race has made of its home and species, is.

Abstract
“Posthuman Interstellar Gothic” considers posthumanism in theory and in the gothic mode with and within science fiction to chart alternative futures and exit strategies out of our anthropic dystopia. Since the millennium, a clear trend towards encyclopaedic overviews in Gothic Studies has emerged. This writing proceeds on the premise that the kind of criticism that is called for right now is what is being shaped by our newest philosophers and cultural critics regards our communal futures. In the Posthuman Interstellar Gothic, victory over the Other is no longer the battle—remedying the mess the human race has made of its home and species, is.
