Cultism and Transhumanism: About Ghost in the Shell

Iris 44 (2024)
  Copy   BIBTEX

Abstract

This article by Daniele Carluccio is studying the conjunction between cultism and transhumanism with three movements : a brief history of cultism, the analysis of the movie Ghost in the Shell (2017) and its reception, and a comment about a specific scene emphasizing a culto-transhumanist imaginary. Using some theoretical concepts, such as the cult movie of Umberto Eco or the moment of truth of Roland Barthes, Daniele Carluccio examines the theme of transhumanism and the definition of a movie as an object of cultism.
