v
Günther Anders's prolific philosophy of technology is undergoing a major revival but
has never been translated into English. Prometheanism: Technology, Digital Culture and
Human Obsolescence mobilises Anders's pragmatic thought and current trends in critical
theory to rethink the constellations of power that are configuring themselves around our
increasingly 'smart' machines.
This book offers a comprehensive introduction to Anders's philosophy of technology
with an annotated translation of his visionary essay 'On Promethean Shame', part of
The Obsolescence of Human Beings 1 published in 1956. The essay analyses feelings
of curtailment, obsolescence and solitude that become manifest whilst we interact with
machines. When technological solutions begin to make humans look embarrassingly
limited and flawed, new emotional vulnerabilities are exposed. These need to be
thought out, because our wavering confidence leaves us unprotected in an ever more
(un)transparent, connected, yet fractured, world.
