Myths, Metaphors, and Science Fiction: Ancient Roots of the Literature of the Future (Conversation Pieces)

by
No Customer Reviews
"This welcome discussion of the connections between future fiction and stories about human inception emphasizes how mythic roots contribute to the emotional power of narrative. Finch investigates the inexplicable awe and wonder that emanates from close encounters between myth and science fiction. This juxtaposition emphatically indicates that science fiction is the predominant mythic metaphor of our time."--Marleen S. Barr
