초록
In many films, a special species called Cyborg can be found like in Ironman and Terminator Salvation. A cyborg is coined with two words: cybernetic and organization. This paper explores the characteristics of a cyborg and the relationship between cyborg and quotidian. For this what bodies function in daily lives is investigated in line with quotidian. In the two cinematic texts, two protagonists,Ironman and Marcus, are struggling to recognize their own peculiar identities: human or non-human. In-betweenness is to be examined for the new tribe named a cyborg to seek for their newly-established identities. The main focus is on discourse on bodies which belong to cyborgs as well as humans. Human bodies operate in an automatic and mechanical way while cyborg bodies can do this based on specific functions. So they never act naturally or automatically. According to Husserl, “the lived-body itself is one of the things that we come to experience” (Welton 46). The concept of the lived body is of significance in that it presents perception and feeling of the body. What is noteworthy is if it is possible for cyborgs to be subjectified by overcoming the fact that they are cyborgs, not human beings, and acknowledge themselves as humans. In relation to the perspectives with quotidian, it is meaningful to find that they strive to be subjective although they cannot act wholly and fully as humans.
Abstract
In many films, a special species called Cyborg can be found like in Ironman and Terminator Salvation. A cyborg is coined with two words: cybernetic and organization. This paper explores the characteristics of a cyborg and the relationship between cyborg and quotidian. For this what bodies function in daily lives is investigated in line with quotidian. In the two cinematic texts, two protagonists,Ironman and Marcus, are struggling to recognize their own peculiar identities: human or non-human. In-betweenness is to be examined for the new tribe named a cyborg to seek for their newly-established identities. The main focus is on discourse on bodies which belong to cyborgs as well as humans. Human bodies operate in an automatic and mechanical way while cyborg bodies can do this based on specific functions. So they never act naturally or automatically. According to Husserl, “the lived-body itself is one of the things that we come to experience” (Welton 46). The concept of the lived body is of significance in that it presents perception and feeling of the body. What is noteworthy is if it is possible for cyborgs to be subjectified by overcoming the fact that they are cyborgs, not human beings, and acknowledge themselves as humans. In relation to the perspectives with quotidian, it is meaningful to find that they strive to be subjective although they cannot act wholly and fully as humans.
