Digital Souls
Prophetic Culture
A Philosophy of Online Death
Recreation For Adolescents
Patrick Stokes
Federico Campagna
Drawing on ongoing philosophical debates, Digital Souls examines how we manage the digital afterlife of dead people and what their online presence tells us about grief, identity, the moral implications of digital legacies and the threat that modern technology poses to the dead.
How are we to face the challenge of leaving a fertile cultural legacy to those who will come after the end of our future? How can we help the creation of new worlds out of the ruins of our own? Federico Campagna explores the twilight of our contemporary notion of reality, and the fading of the cosmological story that belonged to the civilisation of Westernised Modernity.
