Search for: [Abstract = "The article tries to present the similarities and the differences between posthumanism and transhumanism, it tries also to check whether there is more that joins or that separates them. The analysis is illustrated with the examples of two films where the reader may observe the crucial problems for this dilemma. The first film is entitled \"Ona\" \(2013, directed by Spike Jonze\), the second \"Ex Machina\" \(2015, directed by Alex Garland\). As a conclusion the author states that both trends concern the same questions, however, they have different axiological attitude\: transhumanism represents the classical Enlightenment optimism, it is romantic and progressive, while the posthumanism presents the reasonable, careful, practical and realistic standpoint."]
