Technologizing womanhood. Corpo e identità nella letteratura giapponese femminile in epoca digitale.

Starting from the assumption of Donna Haraway for which the cyborg, a hybrid entity between organic body and cybernetic mechanism, embodies the ability to interrupt the dualism that sees the natural body in opposition to the technologically reconstructed body and becomes a starting point for the development of the perspective of posthuman thought, I analyze how Japanese women respond to socio-cultural changes and technological and biomedical developments, and how many technologies have contributed and still contribute to the construction of new female subjectivities. In this perspective, I examine three contemporary authors (Wataya Risa, Taguchi Randy and Murata Sayaka) with the aim of analyzing the relationship between bodies and female identities and the different technologies in the digital age.
