About

Biwu Shang is a rising scholar in the interdisciplinary fields of narrative theory, posthumanism, and the ethics of artificial intelligence. His work bridges literary studies with pressing contemporary debates, exploring how nonhuman entities—from machines to animals—challenge traditional notions of storytelling and moral responsibility. In his most cited paper, “Towards a theory of nonhuman narrative” (2022, 8 citations), Shang lays the groundwork for a new framework that expands narrative theory beyond the human, a contribution that has already sparked interest among narratologists and digital humanists. His earlier study, “From Alan Turing to Ian McEwan: Artificial Intelligence, Lies and Ethics in *Machines Like Me*” (2020, 7 citations), offers a compelling analysis of McEwan’s novel as a literary rejoinder to Turing’s legacy, probing how AI’s capacity for deception reshapes ethical landscapes. Though early in his career, Shang’s focused, high-impact publications signal a distinctive voice at the intersection of literature, philosophy, and technology. His work invites students and researchers to rethink narrative agency in an age of intelligent machines, making him a scholar to watch in the evolving field of posthumanist literary criticism.
