Gótikus zombik, nonhumán szobrászok. Gondolatok a budavári torzók töredékessége kapcsán és egy poszthumán alternatíva
Gothic zombies, nonhuman sculptors. Thoughts on the fragmentation of the Buda Castle torsos and a post-human alternative

Summary/Abstract: One of the most emblematic finds in Hungarian archaeology, the Gothic Buda Castle sculpture group, was discovered over fifty years ago. In contrast to most previous archaeological and art history-focused research, this study emphasizes the fragmentary nature of the sculptures, while also providing examples of the ways in which the torso nature of sculptures has appeared in museum discourse (including exhibitions, studies, and artistic interpretations) to date. Inspired by the work of Bruno Latour, the author also establishes a novel reading that connects torsos to contemporary artworks, post-humanism, and ultimately the Anthropocene.
