영문 초록

This paper examines a ‘hybrid’ identity through Donna Haraway’s cyborg theory and rethinks about the monster which is created by Victor Frankenstein. The purpose is to find a theoretically useful feminist identity beyond ‘gender-based’ one which has taken little account of the contradictory aspects of women’s experiences. As a feminist standpoint theorist, Haraway tries to theorize various material relations between women and complicated reality on the point of the oppressed. Cyborg is a conceptual metaphor for the construction of a new discourse as well as the analysis of real life. It represents multi-layered women’s lives under globalized capitalism. The monster in Frankenstein resembles a cyborg in that it has hybridity and ambiguity beyond gender. It originates in Symbolic order, but cannot be admitted to the order. Without any origin or blood, it has to grow and develop on its own. That alienation makes a cyborg/monster question the dominant ideology and destabilize it. Now, it is time for contemporary feminist theory to think over how to make the monster/cyborg a real modern Prometheus.
