Technological Hegemony or the Postmodern Newfound God

in Thomas Pynchon's Novel. The Critical Era

Beschreibung

As technology knows a significant turn in the postmodern time, the question of nuclear war outbreak resurfaces. And it comes with the expected fear of humanity being laid waste all along with what surrounds it. Although the ever-important development of technology brings to humanity some undeniable advantages, the chance of humanity being destroyed is put to the fore in Thomas Pynchon's novel. Thus, Pynchon shows his postmodern stance. Doing so, he openly reveals the substitute of the Nietzschean demised God, technology, that is both a source of hope and fear for our age.
