Fantascienza - rivista (52 pagine) - Sapete cos'è il cosypunk? Scoprite le peculiarità di questo nuovo filone della fantascienza. In principio era il cyberpunk, poi sono arrivati il postcyberpunk, lo steampunk, il dieselpunk e il nanopunk, ma ora c'è il cosypunk. Che cos'è? Un nuovo filone della fantascienza che possiamo definire in italiano come “accogliente”. Questo termine inglese può essere tradotto, infatti, come: confortevole, caldo, intimo e per l’appunto accogliente. Per estensione, lo si associa alla casa, a una sensazione di sicurezza e conforto, alla routine quotidiana, alle persone care, al cibo che ci piace. Le storie di questo genere della science fiction ci raccontano di persone semplici, non di eroi e superman di turno, pronti a salvare il mondo. E non ci sono neanche cattivi da fermare. Molto spesso quello che tiene in piedi i romanzi e i racconti cosypunk storie basate sul viaggio, sulla scoperta delle piccole gioie della vita ordinaria. Una delle autrici di punta di questo filone è l’americana Becky Chambers, di cui è uscito a gennaio su Urania il romanzo Un salmo per il robot (A Psalm for the Wild-Built, 2021), vincitore del premio Hugo e a questo romanzo e al cosypunk è dedicato lo speciale del numero 252 di Delos Science Fiction. I servizi di questo mese sono dedicati a Hunger Games, con un articolo di Alessandro Cosentino, ai rapporti tra fiction e sonno, con un intervento dello scrittore Antonino Fazio e alla saga I Principi Demoni di Jack Vance, con un intervento di Arturo Fabra. Ancora Fabra, firma l’editoriale dedicato al concetto di impero galattico. Nella sezione rubriche, invece, lo scrittore Andrea Cattaneo ci parla della saga La corazzata spaziale Yamato di Leiji Matsumoto, tra manga e anime, mentre Giuseppe Vatinno ci introduce al film Il mostro del pianeta perduto. Poi, vi presentiamo il nuovo romanzo di Jack McDevitt, uscito sul mercato anglosassone e da questo numero iniziano Le intervisti impossibili, una nuova rubrica in cui ci saranno delle interviste con grandi autori della fantascienza che non sono più di questo mondo, le cui risposte, però, sono vere loro dichiarazioni, così come le domande del curatore di Delos Science Fiction Carmine Treanni, ma com’è ovvio che sia tali chiacchierate sono nel loro complesso “impossibili”. In questo numero ad essere intervistato è Philip K. Dick. L’anteprima narrativa di questo mese è Il nostro seme inquieto di Giulia Abbate, racconto lungo uscito per Delos Digital nella collana Atlantis e il racconto è, invece, di Armando Staffa e ha per titolo Best seller. Rivista fondata da Silvio Sosio e diretta da Carmine Treanni.

The subjects of this book constitute a significant cross section of BBC science fiction television. With such characters as the Doctor (an enigmatic time-traveling alien), Kerr Avon (a problematic rebel leader), Dave Lister (a slovenly last surviving human) and Captain Jack Harkness (a complex omnisexual immortal), these shows have both challenged and reinforced viewer expectations about the small-screen masculine hero. This book explores the construction of gendered heroic identity in the series from both production and fan perspectives. The paradoxical relationships between the producers, writers and fans of the four series are discussed. Fan fiction, criticism and videos are examined that both celebrate and criticize BBC science fiction heroes and villains.

Science is popularly understood as being an ideal of impartial algorithmic objectivity that provides us with a realistic description of the world down to the last detail. The essays collected in this book—written by some of the leading experts in the field—challenge this popular image right at its heart, taking as their starting point that science trades not only in truth, but in fiction, too. With case studies that range from physics to economics and to biology, Fictions in Science reveals that fictions are as ubiquitous in scientific narratives and practice as they are in any other human endeavor, including literature and art. Of course scientific activity, most prominently in the formal sciences, employs logically precise algorithmic thinking. However, the key to the predictive and technological success of the empirical sciences might well lie elsewhere—perhaps even in scientists’ extraordinary creative imagination instead. As these essays demonstrate, within the bounds of what is empirically possible, a scientist’s capacity for invention and creative thinking matches that of any writer or artist.

For this first English edition of his distinguished study of Pythagoreanism, Weisheit und Wissenschajt: Studien zu Pythagoras, Philolaos, und Platon, Walter Burkert has carefully revised text and notes, taking account of additional literature on the subject which appeared between 1962 and 1969. By a thorough critical sifting of all the available evidence, the author lays a new foundation for the understanding of ancient Pythagoreanism and in particular of the relationship within it of "lore" and "science." He shows that in the twilight zone when the Greeks were discovering the rational interpretation of the world and quantitative natural science, Pythagoras represented not the origin of the new, but the survival or revival of ancient, pre-scientific lore or wisdom, based on superhuman authority and expressed in ritual obligation.

This volume is the first systematic study of Seneca’s interaction with earlier literature of a variety of genres and traditions. It examines this interaction and engagement in his prose works, offering interpretative readings that are at once groundbreaking and stimulating to further study. Focusing on the Dialogues, the Naturales quaestiones, and the Moral Epistles, the volume includes multi- perspectival studies of Seneca’s interaction with all the great Latin epics (Lucretius, Vergil and Ovid), and discussions of how Seneca’s philosophical thought is informed by Hellenistic doxography, forensic rhetoric and declamation, the Homeric tradition, Euripidean tragedy and Greco-Roman mythology. The studies analyzes the philosophy behind Seneca’s incorporating exact quotations from earlier tradition (including his criteria of selectivity) and Seneca’s interaction with ideas, trends and techniques from different sources, in order to elucidate his philosophical ideas and underscore his original contribution to the discussion of established philosophical traditions. They also provide a fresh interpretation of moral issues with particular application to the Roman worldview as fashioned by the mos maiorum. The volume, finally, features detailed discussion of the ways in which Seneca, the author of philosophical prose, puts forward his stance towards poetics and figures himself as a poet. Intertextuality in Seneca’s Philosophical Writings will be of interest not only to those working on Seneca’s philosophical works, but also to anyone working on Latin literature and intertextuality in the ancient world.

An innovative new anthology exploring how science fiction can motivate new approaches to economics. From the libertarian economics of Ayn Rand to Aldous Huxley's consumerist dystopias, economics and science fiction have often orbited each other. In Economic Science Fictions, editor William Davies has deliberately merged the two worlds, asking how we might harness the power of the utopian imagination to revitalize economic thinking. Rooted in the sense that our current economic reality is no longer credible or viable, this collection treats our economy as a series of fictions and science fiction as a means of anticipating different economic futures. It asks how science fiction can motivate new approaches to economics and provides surprising new syntheses, merging social science with fiction, design with politics, scholarship with experimental forms. With an opening chapter from Ha-Joon Chang as well as theory, short stories, and reflections on design, this book from Goldsmiths Press challenges and changes the notion that economics and science fiction are worlds apart. The result is a wealth of fresh and unusual perspectives for anyone who believes the economy is too important to be left solely to economists.

During the 2010s, science fiction's immortal adversaries King Kong and Godzilla, representing our conflicts per Carl Sagan's "dream dragons" analogy, made comebacks in American cinema. The blockbuster Kaiju resurged onto the screen, depicting these protectors of an Earth plagued by mankind's hubris and folly. With Earth's future hanging in the balance, their climactic 2021 staging settled a score between the two giant monsters, resolving Toho's classic 1963 film King Kong vs. Godzilla. As formidable creatures emerging from Time's Tomb on Mother Earth, metaphorical Kong and Godzilla are considered here in light of new millennial environmentalism's stark reality. This book, nostalgic in tone, explores the meaning of Kong and Godzilla as planetary saviors--titanic protectors of a theoretical "living Earth" Gaia--defending the globe from a prehistoric plague of adversaries.
