인드라 신하의 『애니멀의 사람들』: 포스트휴먼 신체론을 통한 '도래할 민중'의 재구성 = Indra Sinha’s Animal’s People - Reconfiguration of “Missing People” through Posthuman bodies

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

This thesis analyzes the aspects of the post-human body in Animal‘s People by Indra Sinha, which represents a Bhopal disaster. The novel’s protagonist, Animal, has their body transformed by chemicals and is defined as a kind of post-human body replaced by the influences of science and technology, and his physical condition is defined as a non-human who dismantles the human/non-human dichotomy of traditional humanism and presents the prospect of post-human transformation. Through Animal’s post-human alteration and its relationships within the surrounding environment, including among humans and non-humans, I examine the positive post-human project as suggested by Rosie Braidotti to construct the ‘missing people’, the collective post-human subject, embedded, embodied and grounded. Meanwhile, the problem of contamination and trans-corporeality should be explored as a fundamental theme to make it possible to traverse the boundaries between human and non-human
