Fantascienza - rivista (296 pagine) - Philip K. Dick - Darko Suvin - Fantascienza in Italia - Slipstream - Contaminazioni esoteriche - Gaiman e la fantasy contemporanea - Recensioni L’eterogeneità di questo secondo numero di Anarres vuole anche rispecchiare quella di ambiti come la fantascienza e il fantastico, da sempre multiformi e variegati, in Italia e nel mondo. Il contributo internazionale è di David Ketterer sullo slipstream, e parla di contaminazioni fra SF e altri generi. E il resoconto a più voci di una presentazione romana di un libro di Darko Suvin è un omaggio a un critico internazionale che ha sempre mantenuto solidi legami con l’Italia, dove ora vive. Fra gli altri saggi, due si occupano di SF americana. Salvatore Proietti rilegge Philip K. Dick e il suo rapporto con la controcultura degli Stati Uniti negli anni Sessanta, mettendo al centro gli antieroi protagonisti dei suoi romanzi. Stefano Carducci rievoca gli albori della Golden Age, affascinata dall’esoterismo non meno che dalla hard science. Ad affrontare il rapporto fra Italia e fantascienza sono due articoli: Paolo Bertetti torna agli anni del film muto, all’inizio del Novecento (prima del fascismo), quando in Italia uscirono decine di film SF. Antonino Fazio affronta il rapporto tra fantascienza e teorie del postmoderno, a partire dagli scritti di Wu Ming 1. Last but not least, un articolo di Fulvio Ferrari sulla fantasy contemporanea di Neil Gaiman e altri e sul modo creativo in cui romanzi come American Gods fanno interagire mondo presente e materiale fornito dalla mitologia nordica. Di fantastico classico (da Howard a Lovecraft e Meyrink) parlano anche recensioni e interventi più brevi, mentre una nota finale di Proietti prova a ricercare in Canada le origini fantascientifiche della parola “robot”. Salvatore Proietti insegna Letterature anglo-americane all'Università della Calabria, ed è direttore di Anarres. Fra i suoi lavori più recenti, la cura di Henry David Thoreau, Dizionario portatile di ecologia (Donzelli 2017), e saggi su Samuel R. Delany (Leviathan, A Journal of Melville Studies, 2013) e sui conflitti razziali in Philip K. Dick (in Umanesimo e rivolta in Blade Runner, a cura di Luigi Cimmino et al., Rubbettino 2015), e una panoramica storica della SF italiana (in Science Fiction Studies, 2015), oltre alla riedizione della traduzione di Paul Di Filippo, La trilogia steampunk (Mondadori 2018).

The former editor of Science Fiction Studies, Robert M. Philmus now casts his expert eye on a diverse range of short stories and novels by the premier creators of science fiction, including George Orwell, C. S. Lewis, and Ursula LeGuin. With essays on such masters of the genre as Stanislaw Lem, Kurt Vonnegut, and Philip K. Dick, the volume provides an in-depth textual examination of science fiction as a truly "revisionary" genre. Visions and Revisions will be of immense value to scholars of literature and science fiction studies.

This book represents a narrative quest for a symbolic grounding to help leaders in times when stable social structures and institutions dissolve and disappear. Monika Kostera approaches this sense-making process through innovative research methods, collecting stories from participants and exploring plots and outcomes of an imagined meeting between two symbolic worlds: one of the internal and imaginative and the other of the external and corporate.

Named for the anarchist utopia in Ursula K. Le Guin’s science fiction classic The Dispossessed, Dispatches from Anarres embodies the anarchic spirit of Le Guin’s hometown of Portland, Oregon, while paying tribute to her enduring vision. In stories that range from fantasy to sci fi to realism, some of Portland's most vital voices have come together to celebrate Le Guin’s lasting legacy and influence on that most subversive of human faculties: the imagination. Fonda Lee’s “Old Souls” explores the role of violence and redemption across time and space; Rachael K. Jones’s “The Night Bazaar for Women Turning into Reptiles” touches on gender oppression and a woman’s right to choose; Molly Gloss’s “Wenonah’s Gift” imagines coming-of-age in a post-collapse culture determined to avoid past wrongs; and Lidia Yuknavitch’s “Neuron” reveals that fairy tales may, in fact, be the best way to understand the paradoxes of science. Other contributors include Curtis Chen, Kesha Ajọsẹ-Fisher, Juhea Kim, Tina Connolly, David D. Levine, Leni Zumas, Rene Denfeld, and Michelle Ruiz Keil, with a foreword by David Naimon, co-author (with Le Guin) of Ursula K. Le Guin: Conversations on Writing.

Anarchy. The word alone conjures strong emotional responses. Anarchism is one of the most important, if maligned, radical social movements. In the 21st century, anarchist politics have enjoyed a significant revival, offering a positive vision of social change and an alternative to the injustice and inequality associated with states and corporate dominance. Yet anarchism remains misunderstood and misrepresented in mass media and government accounts that associate the term with chaos and disorder. Despite the negative portrayals anarchism, in fact, has always been a movement of intense creativity. More than a political movement, anarchism has, for over a century, made important contributions to cultural developments, especially in literature and art. Often overlooked are the vital creative expressions of anarchism. This lively volume featuring works by innovative scholars presents the compelling potency of anarchist literature through distinct voices. Anarchism has greatly influenced literary production and provided inspiration for a diversity of writers and literary movements. Edited by a longtime anarchist theorist, this exciting collection of engaging works highlights the rich articulations of anarchism and literary creations. It places anarchism at the center of analysis and criticism. Authors examined include Octavia Butler, John Fowles, James Joyce, Ursula LeGuin, Eugene O’Neill, B. Traven, and Oscar Wilde, among others. The collection shows the richness of anarchist movements in politics and culture. Specters of Anarchy examines critically the generally overlooked intersections, engagements, debates and controversies between literature and criticism and anarchist theories and movements, historically and in the present period. Synthesizing literary criticism with the theory and practice of anarchism, this book offers a re-reading of important literary and political works. Anarchist politics is a major, and growing, contemporary movement, yet the lack of informed analysis has meant that the actual perspectives, desires and visions of this movement remain obscured. Lost in recent sensationalist accounts are the creative and constructive practices undertaken daily by anarchist organizers imagining a world free from violence, oppression and exploitation. An examination of some of these constructive anarchist visions, which provide examples of politics grounded in everyday resistance, offers insights into real world attempts to radically transform social relations in the here and now of everyday life.

For a genre that imagines possible futures as a means of critiquing the present, utopian/dystopian fiction has been surprisingly obsessed with how the past is remembered. Memory and Utopian Agency in Utopian/Dystopian Literature: Memory of the Future examines modern and contemporary utopian/dystopian literature’s preoccupation with memory, asserting that from the nineteenth century onward, memory and forgetting feature as key problematics in the genre as well as sources of the utopian impulse. Through a series of close readings of utopian/dystopian novels informed by theory and dialectics, Hanson provides a case study history of how and why memory emerged as a problem for utopia, and how recent dystopian texts situate memory as a crucial mode of utopian agency. Hanson demonstrates that many modern and contemporary writers of the genre consider the presence of certain forms of memory as necessary to the project of imagining better societies or to avoiding possible dystopian outcomes.
