Topos of artificial intelligence in 20th century American literature.
 PODLAHA, Roman
The Diploma thesis is mainly focused on posthumanistic philosophical concepts present in American science fiction literature of 20th century. Stories selected are those where the key role is put on the presence of artificial intelligence. Thanks to the analysis and comparison of selected texts, the reader can easily recognize how classical humanistic concept of man is nowadays deeply transformed by the immersive use of hi-technology and, by extension artificial intelligence. The introduction is primarily concerned with basic terms and definitions of what we call philosophical posthumanism. The next part of the text is searching for the notion of "posthuman" in the most renowned American science fiction authors' works (Isaac Asimov, Philip K. Dick, William Gibson, Richard Powers and more).
