Parution de l'ouvrage collectif Gothic Science Fiction: 1980-2010, dirigé par Sara Wasson and Emily Alder, Liverpool University Press - Liverpool Science Fiction Texts &#38; Studies, 256 pagesPrésentation sur le site de The University of Chicago Press.Gothic fiction’s focus on the irrational and supernatural would seem to conflict with science fiction’s rational foundations. However, as this novel collection demonstrates, the two categories often intersect in rich and revealing ways. Analyzing a range of works—including literature, film, graphic novels, and trading card games—from the past three decades through the lens of this hybrid genre, this volume examines their engagement with the era’s dramatic changes in communication technology, medical science, and personal and global politics.Redefining GenresRoger Luckhurst, In the Zone: Topologies of Genre WeirdnessFred Botting, Zombie Death Drive: Between Gothic and Science FictionBiopower and CapitalAris Mousoutzanis, 'Death is Irrevelant': Gothic Science Fiction and the Biopolitics of EmpireSara Wasson, 'A Butcher's Shop Where the Meat Still Moved': Gothic Doubles, Organ Harvesting and Human CloningLaurence Davies, Guillermo del Toro's Cronos, or the Pleasures of ImpurityGwyneth Peaty, Infected with Life: Neo-supernaturalism and the Gothic ZombieEmily Alder, Ruined Skin: Gothic Genetics and Human Identity in Stephen Donaldson's Gap CycleGender and GenreMark P.
