On New Year's Day 1818, Mary Shelley's novel Frankenstein was first published in an anonymous three-volume edition of 500 copies. Some thought the book was too radical in implication. A few found the central theme intriguing ... no-one predicted its success. This book, celebrating the two hundredth birthday of Frankenstein, traces, in colorful and engaging ways, the journey of Shelley's Frankenstein from limited edition literature to the bloodstream of contemporary culture. It includes new research on the novel's origins, and a facsimile reprint of the earliest-known manuscript version of the creation scene. Frankenstein's legacy is to be seen all over the world--on small and large screens, in print and online, on stage and on hoardings, in graphic novels, comics and even on cereal packets. From a Regency nightmare, Frankenstein's creature has even become a cuddly childhood companion--thoroughly munstered, so to speak. The real creation myth of modern times--the era of genetic engineering, three-parent babies, nanotechnology, artificial intelligence, robotics and singularity, human/animal interfaces and secularism--is no longer Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden. The real creation myth is Frankenstein. -- Inside jacket flap.

»Postnaturalism« offers an original account of human-technological co-evolution and argues that film and media theory, in particular, needs to be re-evaluated from the perspective of our material interfaces with a constantly changing environment. Extrapolating from Frankenstein films and the resonances they establish between a hybrid monster and the spectator hooked into the machinery of the cinema, Shane Denson engages debates in science studies and philosophy of technology to rethink histories of cinema, media, technology, and ultimately of the affective channels of our own embodiment. With a foreword by media theorist Mark B. N. Hansen. »[The book] offers a highly original and scholary sophisticated account of human-technological co-evolution that re-evaluates film and media theory from the perspective of our material interfaces with a constantly changing environment.« Dennis Büscher-Ulbrich, Literatur in Wissenschaft und Unterricht, 1/2 (2014) »Densons detaillierte inhaltliche, rezeptive und produktionstechnische Betrachtung der Frankenstein-Adaptionen [ist] eine Bereicherung für die analytische und produktionsästhetische Auseinandersetzung mit einem zentralen Text (oder modernen Mythos) und seinen zahlreichen Adaptionen in einer ganzen Reihe von textkritischen Disziplinen: von der Medien- über die Literatur- bis hin zur Kulturwissenschaft.« Anya Heise-von der Lippe, MEDIENwissenschaft, 1 (2016)
