Tactics of the Human: Experimental Technics in American Fiction
examines the ways contemporary American fiction develops digital
cultures through the creative transposition of digital rhetorics
and technological practices, incorporating devices such as the
hyperlink, network, and recursive processing into print or in
translating a classic print narrative into a digital hypertext
fiction. These literary experiments with early digital cultures
from the 1990s comparatively retrace and speculate on the digital's
transformative influence on prior understandings of the human, of
social lives, and of individuals' relations to material lifeworlds,
exploring the consequences of the apparent plasticity of the
boundaries of the human, particularly for women, subaltern
subjects, and others already considered liminally human. As these
texts query the digital technics entering into textual practices,
subjectivity, spatial practices and social networks, lived space,
nation, and economic circulation, they reconceive their own
literary print narrative methods and material modes of circulation
in order to elaborate on unnoticed potentialities and limits of
digital technics, providing a crucial means to reorient digital
cultures of the present.
