Zakres tematów: | Science fiction has long been considered intellectually undemanding and charged with light-hearted escapism – an opinion whose narrow-mindedness is only matched by its ignorance of the state of SF in the last three or four decades. In reality, science fiction novels, films, comics, and videogames can be extremely complex and sophisticated expressions and reflections of contemporary world’s hopes and anxieties. No other film genre reflected so intimately the Cold War anxieties and paranoia; no other fiction has been a better communicator of feminist ideas; and no other convention has conveyed the sense of living in the late-capitalist world of interconnectivity and corporate governance. During the seminar we will first learn how to read science fiction (as it does require a unique approach different from methods applied to so-called realistic narratives). We will also become acquainted with the history of American SF. We will then proceed to develop the topics for MA theses, which will typically analyze selected texts and the ways in which they address and resonate with American problems and issues. While a typical MA thesis will discuss American problems and issues in science fiction texts of any medium (literature, film, television, comic book, or videogame), I am also open to students working in other fantastic genres such as fantasy or horror. |
