Editor's Note:
"Ms. Borbely offers a work of deep and impressive scholarship. Not only is this thesis extraordinarily well-read but it is also startlingly original. The thesis uncovers a rich seam within the English novel of the late twentieth and early twenty-first century in the representation of a variety of forms of monstrosity. The core argument is that these texts reveal a willingness to embrace or incorporate the monstrous within the human rather than use it - as in previous generations - to police or mark the borders of the normatively human. [...] Ms. Borbely judiciously applies key critical concepts - Foucault's heterotopias, Baudriallard's simulacrum, Haraway's cyborg - to a carefully selected group of novels in order to tease out the variety found in treatments of the monstrous. [...] A remarkable work, written with confidence, style and precision, which makes an important contribution to the evaluation of the modern novel and the interaction of postmodern cultural/ critical theory and literary creation in contemporary Britain." - Professor Ros Ballaster, Oxford UniversityThis study embarks on a Foucauldian descent into the archival traces of contemporary figurations of monstrosity, which permeate postmodernist British fiction at the turn of the millennium. In view of monstrous corporeality constantly marking out the perimeters of proper human embodiment, whether in teratological taxonomies or in travelogues depicting deformed races at the fringes of human civilisation, the author rallies to her argument Michel Foucault’s genealogical survey of the pathologisation and discursive constitution of a domain of marginal otherness serving to delineate the abjected outside of the western liberal subject. The plural from the title, genealogies, emphasises the dislocation or diffraction of the monstrous figures outlined by the fictional texts the author examines from strict, fixed origins: by admixing mythical, scientific, culturally perspectivist or citational Gothic constructions of monstrosity, the novels the author investigate ultimately evince the firm imbrication between teratology, as the discourse of the monstrous, and attempts to construct notions of what counts as normal and normative humanity.
