Abstract

What if life was neverending? What if you could change your body to adapt to an alien ecology? What if the pope were a robot? Spanning galaxies and millennia, this must-have anthology showcases classic contributions from H. G. Wells, Arthur C. Clarke, Octavia E. Butler, and Kurt Vonnegut, alongside a century of the eccentrics, rebels, and visionaries who have inspired generations of readers. Within its pages, you will find beloved worlds of space opera, hard SF, cyberpunk, the New Wave, and more. Learn about the secret history of science fiction, from titans of literature who also wrote SF to less well-known authors from more than twenty-five countries, some never before translated into English. In The Big Book of Science Fiction, literary power couple Ann and Jeff VanderMeer transport readers from Mars to Mechanopolis, planet Earth to parts unknown. Immerse yourself in the genre that predicted electric cars, space tourism, and smartphones. Sit back, buckle up, and dial in the coordinates, as this stellar anthology has got worlds within worlds.

Abstract

"Nous avons du mal à saisir la réalité qui évolue de plus en plus rapidement. Comment dès lors, des textes à visée fantastique vont-ils aborder cette nouvelle donne, où la technologie confère une forme mouvante au monde, et modifie nos comportements? L'inventivité technologique et scientifique est aujourd'hui telle, qu'aucun point de vue global, tel un Aleph borgésien, ne permettrait d'en saisir le champ des savoirs et de leurs conséquences. L'Occident a élaboré un univers technoscientifique, sans avoir toujours les capacités de comprendre qu'il s'élabore ainsi une nouvelle réalité. Elle induit un douloureux changement de paradigme - comparable, à celui qui a été vécu aux xvie et XVIIe siècle. C'est pourquoi le recours à l'imaginaire, loin d'apparaître comme une fuite, est une tentation et une ressource, pour tenter de donner sens à une réalité impensable. Ainsi les auteurs de fiction se réfèrent à l'imaginaire - spéculatif ou émotionnel. Ils remettent en jeu les figures des faéries, ou utilisent la nostalgie devant les ruines des mondes utopiques, que l'Histoire a engloutis."--P. [4] of cover.

Abstract

"Science fiction's supreme masterpiece, Dune will be forever considered a triumph of the imagination. Set on the desert planet Arrakis, it is the story of the boy Paul Atreides, who will become the mysterious man known as Muad'Dib. Paul's noble family is named stewards of Arrakis, whose sands are the only source of a powerful drug called "the spice." After his family is brought down in a traitorous plot, Paul must go undercover to seek revenge, and to bring to fruition humankind's most ancient and unattainable dream. A stunning blend of adventure and mysticism, environmentalism and politics, Dune won the first Nebula Award, shared the Hugo Award, and formed the basis of what is undoubtedly the grandest epic in science fiction.

Abstract

This book, first published in 1979, presents a portrait of science fiction as a distinct form of serious and creative literature. Contributors are drawn from Britain, America and Europe, and range from well-known academic critics to young novelists. The essays establish the common properties of science fiction writing, and assess the history and significance of a field in which critical judgements have often been unreliable. The material ranges from the earliest imaginative journeys to the moon, to later developments of British, American and European science fiction.

Abstract

Ce recueil s'ouvre sur la première histoire de la littérature de science-fiction produite en Belgique francophone. Au-delà de la question classique de l'existence de cette littérature, Dominique Warfa propose des jalons permettant de l'identifier et de la penser, alors qu'elle fut jusque-là perdue dans l'ombre du fantastique et de l'étrange. Suivent une série d'études et d'analyses, constituant une sélection représentative de l'importante activité critique de l'auteur.
