The book brings to light Neal Stephenson's answer to the
technologically induced crisis in identity. The author of this book
analyses the ethnocultural, technological, and ideological skeins
that make up the biopolitical production of the self. The
coming-of-age novel "The Diamond Age" reflects the processes
surrounding the emergence of conscience. Through his inspired
recycling of cultural traditions, Stephenson's ethico-aesthetic
engagement with technology, mass media, and literature advocates an
epistemological change in being. This essay's use of affect theory
shows how a specific work informs literary theory and thinking, and
how literature goes beyond reflecting the "zeitgeist" by offering
creative ways to apprehend technology.
