Posthuman Conditions. Kultur- und Medienwissenschaften als dritte Wissenskultur

Author(s): Weigel, Sigrid

Abstract

As empirical research in neuro- and life sciences is aimed at the core of humanities, they adopt those formulas of pathos like "intention", "mind", "identity" or "consciousness" which, after all, have long been analysed with regard to their symbol-theoretical and media-anthropological principles. Meanwhile, cultural as well as media sciences have established themselves – beyond the contrasting 'two cultures' – as a kind of third culture of knowledge and thus connect to traditions of thought like, for instance, Freud's theory of subjects or Benjamin's theory of media.
