Abstract:

This article presents an attempt to consider the formation of the “Martian” text in Russian literature during the Silver Age. The author studies three novels about trips to Mars (On Another Planet by P. Infantiev, On a Neighboring Planet by V. Kryzhanovskaya, Red Star by A. Bogdanov) published in Russia from 1901 to 1908. The aim of the study is to identify the main stable elements of the structure that appeared in all the three novels. The author employs methods of comparative historical analysis. All the three novels are compared with each other and placed into the context of the mystical, u

Abstract:

Abstract Crossing the binary of utopia and dystopia, this article reads Hao Jingfang's (1984–) novel Vagabonds as a critical ecotopia. I explore configurations of social worlds and eschew the politics of purity by highlighting the complexities of building a utopia while navigating entangled complicity and ambiguity between utopia and dystopia. The Mars Republic in the novel represents an ecotopia built through advanced technologies, where Martians adapt to the arid environment in contrast with the environmentally degraded earth. The novel portrays encounters, shocks, and mutual critiques betwe

Abstract This article elaborates on two depictions of Mars in Stanisław Lem's fiction, represented in Człowiek z Marsa [The Man from Mars, 1946] and “Ananke” (1971), focusing on the ties to literary tradition and contemporary scientific findings, which helps explain otherwise inexplicable features of the stories. In regard to The Man from Mars, the analysis reveals why Lem has decided to depart from the original evolutionary scenario envisioned by H. G. Wells for his Martians (with The War of the Worlds remaining the sole identifiable inspiration behind Lem's debut). Examination of the influen

Abstract:

H.G. Wells’ science fiction novel, The War of the Worlds envisions a reality where human existence is no longer isolated but intricately connected to the universe and the unknown. The anticipation of extraterrestrial life challenges the notion of human superiority, forcing a reconsideration of humanity’s place in the cosmos. Influenced by Charles Darwin’s theories of evolution, Wells presents a conflict between organic beings, both terrestrial and extraterrestrial, highlighting the fragility of life and the ecosystems that sustain it. From an ecocritical perspective, The War of the Worlds refl

Abstract:

The French literature from the late 19th and early 20th centuries that can be classified as “space fiction” centered on missions to Mars and making contact with Martians. The topic’s appeal stems from scientific findings of the time (particularly the so-called Martian canals) as well as the traditional symbolism of the Roman god who gave the Red Planet its name. All authors who wrote about Mars during the “Belle Époque” were inspired, to varying degrees, by the writings of the eminent astronomer Camille Flammarion (both scientific and fictional).

Abstract:

“It was a bright cold day in April, and the clocks were striking thirteen” (Orwell, 1949). The opening lines of 1984 have passed into the collective consciousness, gathering the familiarity that is reserved for great works of literature. The ‘Ministry of Truth’ was Winston Smith's employer and the name is now applied by journalists to the Victorian Government's media unit.Much science fiction has been treated with condescension and the label of approval, ‘literature’, has been applied sparingly, if at all. I have enjoyed the genre since reading The War of the Worlds by H.G. Wells. The terror a

Abstract:

Alan M. Turing’s test for machine intelligence (1950) involves a science-fictional dialogue in which a computer or an alien communicates with a human, who judges whether it is intelligent. Dialogues of this kind were already part of science fiction by the mid-1930s, and an analysis of Stanley G. Weinbaum’s “A Martian Odyssey” (1934) demonstrates how nuanced they could be. Robot stories of the late 1930s and early 1940s exhibit sophisticated variations. The mechanism for this development was pulp science fiction’s reader-editor-author feedback system, which identified failed attempts to recycle

Abstract:

H.G. Wells’ science fiction The War of the Worlds (1898) in its imagined reality connects the isolated human existence with the universe and the unknown that exists beyond human understanding. The anticipation of the possibility of extraterrestrial life beyond human existence gave way to the understanding that humans on earth are not superior. Wells’ being influenced by the ideas of evolution propagated by Charles Darwin drew a conflict between organic beings with and beyond life on earth and its ecosystems. If looked through an ecocritical perspective, Well’s work can be seen as containing a

Abstract:

This paper analyses the construction of fictional interaction in humorous narratives written by children of 8, 10 and 12 years of age, as compiled in the CHILDHUM corpus. These informants were asked to write a humorous story about an imaginary school exchange program with Mars. The analysis will explore the ways in which children shape their fictional conversational interactions with Martians, and how the data that arise can be correlated with the psychosocial and metalinguistic maturation of the children. This preliminary qualitative study reveals that children aged 8 demonstrate a certain de

Abstract:

This article is concerned with the study of the role of contaminated speech in revealing the relationship between the characters of a work of fiction. The material used for the study is the works of Jack London — “Martin Eden” (1909) and “The Scarlet Plague” (1910). The concept of norm was introduced as the main premise for the study, which was interpreted differently by the participants of the dialogue. In the course of the research, two communicative models associated with different levels of education of the communicants were identified — the dialogue-argument and the dialogue-explanation.
