| dc.description.abstract | Humanity had come to several standoffs with extinction. The last of which are World war I and World War II which alone are enough to portray humanity’s capacity to cause its own extinction. With the technological leaps humanity made in the last century, a fear is common among every citizen of every country on every continent that the endless possibilities coming from the same technology used by people to improve life could lead to our end. This research is a study of William Gibson’s Neuromancer (1984); one of the dystopian novels that depict the state of humanity under an oppressive regime that empowers itself through technology. In order to prove that oppression and evil can only take root when humanity stagnates, Neuromancer and Friedrich Nietzsche’s Thus Spoke Zarathustra are placed in parallel which would allow for a better understanding of the nuances that play part in eradicating the humane factor in society. Moreover, Carl Jung’s psychology can determine the validity of the philosophical assumptions sprung up by Nietzsche giving his abstract ideas a scientific basis. The significance of this research lies in the importance of grasping the various factors that play a role in creating such dystopias so that people may collectively avoid their recreation in reality as history shows that negligence leads to unchecked power which in turn leads to tyranny and tyranny leads to inhumane acts. | |
