?:abstract
  • Fictional narratives concerning science and technology, and specifically science fictionnarratives, are centred upon questions of difference, alterity and Otherness. Thoughnot representing classical science fiction texts, the analyzed novels display a key roleattributed to technological advancement and thus incorporate and discuss that centralquestion of Otherness in external and internal representation. Firstly, Ian McEwan's novel Machines Like Me (2019) and Kazuo Ishiguro's novel Klara and the Sun (2021) superficially deal with human-machine interaction, but also more subtly mirrorhumaneness in contrast to a perfectionist Machine Otherness that, in turn, questionshuman morality. Secondly, Juli Zeh's novel Leere Herzen (Empty Hearts) (2017) and Julia von Lucadou's novel Die Hochhausspringerin (The High Rise Diver) (2018) subconsciously display the more disruptive influences of Artificial Intelligence onsocieties. The conception of Otherness is thus not rooted in the opposition between machines and human beings, but in a steady process of self-alienation. (xsd:string)
