Female Ageing and Technological Reproduction. Feminist Transhuman Embodiments in Jasper Fforde’s The Woman Who Died A Lot Fernández Santiago, Miriam Female cyborg Female Ageing Transhumanism Disability Science Fiction no tengo derechos de reproducción The visual power of the female-cyborg metaphor has been sensationally exploited in science fiction by rendering transhuman pictures of the female body and mind that often perpetuate old patriarchal clichés. The transhuman cyborg-woman is thus embodied as an improved female young, heterosexual, white, hypersexualized, and disposable commodity. Jasper Fforde’s novel The Woman Who Died A Lot (2012) unfolds a self-critical approach to feminist discourse that presses on the issue of female ageing as it intersects with the transhumanist construction of female biological/technological sexual desire and reproductive potential by representing ageing women as disabled. 2024-11-27T13:48:50Z 2024-11-27T13:48:50Z 2022 book part “Female Ageing and Technological Reproduction .Feminist Transhuman Embodiments in Jasper Fforde’s The Woman Who Died A Lot.” in Technologies of Feminist Speculative Fiction.
