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.

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:

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

The book sidles up to the reader; it no longer presents itself as existing in itself, but rather as existing for something other, and for this very reason the reader feels cheated of what is best in it.

Este trabalho investiga fundamentalmente o sonho como uma dimensão atemporal em que é possível conceber experiências de liberdade radical ao transpor as imagens dos cenários oníricos para a pintura. Apresento pensamentos e fabulações que partem de uma sequência de sonhos catastróficos localizados no ambiente urbano, juntamente com os caminhos elucidativos que busqueipara explicar a invasão dessas imagens em minha psique. Compreendo o início da gestação dessas imagens no mundo colonial, estendendo-se pela modernidade, por meio das ficções de futuro, invadindo universos internos e externos. Como

Is it possible to share a world changing discovery in an equitable way? If a new Galileo came forward today, would you be on his side? In this work of philosophical short story fiction, the Krish is a newspaper reporter reporting on Dr. Zhang’s alleged new discovery; the instantons and inexpensive transportation of matter to and from anywhere in the universe. NASA declares the invention a hoax, but is proven wrong when Dr. Zhang writes out in the Martian soil, “Believe me now?” Dr. Zhang, however, destroys the research for her work and refuses to tell the world the basis for her invention, fea

Abstract As one of the most representative writers of contemporary Chinese science fiction, Hao Jingfang is well known for her world-building that blends the characteristics of both utopia and dystopia, especially in Vagabonds. In line with the classic utopian dialectic in Le Guin’s The Dispossessed, Hao Jingfang has also set up two opposing worlds: the libertarian Earth that welcomes market competition and individualistic pursuit for capital and the egalitarian Martian Republic built upon scarcity and under the supervision of a central archive system that provides social welfare and protectio

Les dirigeants nazis ont reconnu précocement que le cinéma était « l’un des moyens de manipulation des masses les plus modernes » (Goebbels, 1934). Des moyens considérables ont alors été réquisitionnés pour soutenir la politique expansionniste de Hitler et remporter également la « guerre culturelle ». Au-delà de la diffusion de valeurs martiales, les images filmiques devaient aussi divertir et faire oublier les rigueurs du conflit.

Abstract:

Can marital disputes be solved with a flip of the coin? Is “fairness and equality” the goal of a successful marriage? In this work of philosophical/ethics short fiction, Martin and Mari, a couple who met in college, base their entire relationship on fairness and equality, using coin flips and dice rolls to decide everything from who sleeps on the left side of the bed to what kind of car they buy. As they age, Martin's desire for sex remains strong, while Mari's wanes. He negotiates higher and higher odds for sex in exchange for giving in to Mari's preferences in other areas of their lives.

In a posthumously published work of science fiction (The Dechronization of Sam Magruder, St. Martin's Press, 1996) the American paleontologist George G. Simpson (1902-1984) tells the story of Sam Magruder, a "chronologist" living in 2162 A.D, who was experimenting on the "quantum theory of time-motion" when he suffers a "time-slip" that puts him back in the Late Cretaceous of New Mexico. Helplessly lost in time and with no hope of returning to the present, Magruder ekes out a primitive existence for some years until a fatal accident befalls him. Before his death Magruder manages to chisel out

Abstract. The emergence of different genres and trends in literature has led to the creation of various unique works. Thus, creating a novel and accepting it by a reader with positive thoughts demonstrates the skill of the writer. The internal structure of the work plays an important role in it. This scientific article contains scientifically grounded ideas about the genre of the play, its internal structure, a life of author, the secondary world, the system of images in the work and etc. The scientific article is divided into four parts, and we present them on a short explanation.

Ethics is one of the dominant metanarratives that have been accepted blindly since the dawn of civilization. This paper will show how this sociocultural foundation exists in the fictional medieval world of George R.R. Martin’s novel A Game of Thrones through tragic journeys of multiple characters enduring downfall due to their failed inability to reconcile their old ideologies with new perspectives. Ethical metanarratives, such as concepts of good and evil, will be critiqued from the point of view of the post-modernist methodology of deconstruction, which is an effective instrument used

Abstract:

Ray Bradbury’s career spanned seven decades and intersected a remarkable, wide-ranging gamut of American cultural history. He was closely associated with Hollywood, where his stories and books were adapted for feature films and television. Adaptations of his work for network radio broadcasts began in 1946 and continued, both at home and abroad, until three years before his passing in 2012. For more than forty years he adapted dozens of his stories for successful stage runs in Los Angeles and occasionally for national venues.
