Antropologia Artistică din Perspectiva Eticii Transumaniste

Japanese-born British Kazuo Ishiguro is a fiction writer rewarded with the Nobel Prize for Literature in 2017, whose polymorph opera is appreciated for the literary quality of books. The memory, the identity, the nostalgia, the self-illusion and the capacity of individual to overpass own limits are topics constituting Ishiguro personal brand. The literary approach was often an anticipation of ontological realities, a view of the future. Never Let Me Go (2005) is a novel about the ethics matters arisen by the problem of cloning bioengineering in formulas of artistic anthropology. The novel was catalogued differently: as dystopic story with fantastic elements about an alternative universe created by the genetic engineering and as a love story disguised in alternative story. Inscribing in the bloodline of Huxley, the innovation of Ishiguro consisted in the fact that he has represented “the cloning kitchen” from a totally different perspective than that of previous novelists – the one of cloned beings, whose true mission is to become living donors of organs for transplantation. There is however in this tensioned atmosphere human elements: the pupils practice arts and fell in love, proving a sensitive capacity of the soul. The artistic conflict consist in the confrontation between humanists and representatives of medical industry, the last taking the control. Ishiguro’s novels do not give solutions, “the clones’ nation” does not try to protest or to escape. The global matters the novel arises inscribes in treating the science as a continuation of the metaphysics, as updating of the spirit by transforming experimentally the living, as delegation of the moral.
