亚当·罗伯茨(Adam Roberts),1965年生,科幻小说作家、评论家、学者,剑桥大学博士,现任伦敦大学英国文学教授。作为一名科幻小说作家,罗伯茨曾得到两次阿瑟·C. 克拉克奖的提名。他的另外一部科幻理论著作是Science Fiction: the New Critical Idiom (2000)。
The first comprehensive critical history of SF for thirty years, this book traces the origin and development of science fiction from Ancient Greece, via its rebirth in the seventeenth century, up to the present day. Concentrating on literary SF and (in the later chapters) cinema and TV, it also discusses the myriad forms this genre takes in the contemporary world, including a chapter on graphic novels, SF pop music, visual art and ufology. The author is ideally placed to write it: both an academic literary critic and also an acclaimed creative writer of science fiction, with five novels and many short stories to his credit. Written in lively, accessible prose, this study is specifically designed to bridge the worlds of academic criticism and the SF fandom. The History of Science Fiction argues that, even today, this flourishing cultural idiom is shaped by the forces that determined its rise to prominence in the 1600s: the dialogue between Protestant and Catholic worldviews, the emerging technologies of the industrial age, and the cultural anxieties and excitements of a rapidly changing world. Now available in paperback, it will be of interest to all students, researchers and fans of SF.

评分科学一旦没有了支点就会变为科幻,因此没有了这种理论基础和实验验证就成为了没有理论和实验的理论前提。这就是根据的不同而导致的不同的结果,但是没有基础就没有根据和可信性和可行性。因此没有了基础就不要实现,以免没有办法收尾。这样他们就自动发展了。因此不要不设置 矛...
评分这本来应该是一本好书,姑且不论原书学术性如何、译者翻译水平怎样,但毕竟是对国内较少触及的一个领域的引介。 但是,这本书通篇充斥着病句、错字、多字,简直让人读不下去。书名翻译不统一,相隔五六页就有出现两种译法;对于科学和文学术语的不熟悉导致术语翻译与惯译不符;...
