East German science fiction enabled its authors to create a subversive space in another time and place. One of the country's most popular genres, it outlined futures that often went beyond the party's official version. Many utopian stories provided a corrective vision, intended to preserve and improve upon East German communism. This study is an introduction to East German science fiction. The book begins with a chapter on German science fiction before 1949. It then spans the entire existence of the country (1949-1990) and outlines key topics essential to understanding the genre: popular literature, socialist realism, censorship, fandom, and international science fiction. An in-depth discussion addresses notions of high and low literature, elements of the fantastic and utopia as critical narrative strategies, ideology and realism in East German literature, gender, and the relation between literature and science. Through a close textual analysis of three science fiction novels, the author expands East German literary history to include science fiction as a valuable source for developing a multi-faceted understanding of the country's short history. Finally, an epilogue notes new titles and developments since the fall of the Berlin Wall.

Nicht-realistisches Erzählen ist hochpopulär, wurde aber häufig des politischen Eskapismus verdächtigt. Diese Studie bietet einen fiktionstheoretischen Zugang zum Erzählverfahren der Kontrafaktik und zeigt dessen Nähe zum politischen Schreiben auf. Analysen kontrafaktischer Werke von Christian Kracht, Kathrin Röggla, Juli Zeh und Leif Randt demonstrieren die Vielfalt und Relevanz politischer Realitätsvariationen in der Gegenwartsliteratur.

In this companion, an international range of contributors examine the cultural formation of cyberpunk from micro-level analyses of example texts to macro-level debates of movements, providing readers with snapshots of cyberpunk culture and also cyberpunk as culture. With technology seamlessly integrated into our lives and our selves, and social systems veering towards globalization and corporatization, cyberpunk has become a ubiquitous cultural formation that dominates our twenty-first century techno-digital landscapes. The Routledge Companion to Cyberpunk Culture traces cyberpunk through its historical developments as a literary science fiction form to its spread into other media such as comics, film, television, and video games. Moreover, seeing cyberpunk as a general cultural practice, the Companion provides insights into photography, music, fashion, and activism. Cyberpunk, as the chapters presented here argue, is integrated with other critical theoretical tenets of our times, such as posthumanism, the Anthropocene, animality, and empire. And lastly, cyberpunk is a vehicle that lends itself to the rise of new futurisms, occupying a variety of positions in our regionally diverse reality and thus linking, as much as differentiating, our perspectives on a globalized technoscientific world. With original entries that engage cyberpunk’s diverse ‘angles’ and its proliferation in our life worlds, this critical reference will be of significant interest to humanities students and scholars of media, cultural studies, literature, and beyond.

Die verbreitete These des Unpolitischen in der Literatur der Gegenwart, wie sie sich etwa bei der Rezeption zu Christian Krachts Faserland beobachten lässt, beruht auf einem strukturellen Denkfehler, da sie die Kategorien der politischen Artikulation und Partizipation, die etwa an Texten der Nachkriegsliteratur erarbeitet wurden, nun an Texte anlegt, die ihre mögliche politische Semantik nicht aufgrund ihrer Erzählung der Politik, sondern aufgrund ihrer Erzählung des Politischen gewinnen.Der vorliegende Band nimmt die Erzählungen des Politischen in der Literatur der Gegenwart in den Blick und diskutiert die ästhetischen und politischen Verfahren. Im Fokus steht die Überlegung, wie sich in der Gegenwart das Politische erzählen und eine politische Position beziehen lässt. Die besondere Leistung der Literatur als fiktionaler Imaginations- und Reflexionsraum für die Aushandlungen des Politischen wird mit der neueren Theoriebildung der Politischen Philosophie, Literatur- und Politikwissenschaft enggeführt.

"Wir alle brauchen Autoren wie dich, die mit der Stärke ihrer Persönlichkeit und der Kraft ihres Ausdrucks gegen den Unsinn ankämpfen, der die Welt zu überschwemmen droht." Burkhard Spinnen in einer Laudatio auf Juli Zeh (*1974). Sie wird als politisch engagierte Autorin wahrgenommen, die sich in öffentliche Debatten einmischt. Mit "Unterleuten" hat Juli Zeh einen vielbeachteten Gesellschaftsroman vorgelegt: ein Bestseller, der als Dreiteiler im ZDF filmisch adaptiert wurde. Zeh wird zudem oftmals geehrt; 2018 erhielt sie das Bundesverdienstkreuz. Doch Kritik und Literaturwissenschaft begegnen der studierten Schriftstellerin und promovierten Juristin, deren Themen und Plot-Konstruktionen im Vordergrund ihrer Erzähltexte stehen, auch skeptisch. Komplexe Theoreme etwa der Physik ("Schilf") entwirft die Autorin im Genre des Kriminalromans. Durchgängig finden sich apokalyptische Szenerien: als Zeitdiagnose ("Spieltrieb") oder Vorausdeutung (wie in "Corpus Delicti" und "Leere Herzen"). Schlussbilder und Wendepunkte ihrer Narrationen oder grotesken Theaterstücke bieten überwiegend surreal überzogene Exzesse (etwa "Neujahr"), welche die vorigen, 'realistischen' Psychologisierungen ihrer Figuren auffällig und überraschend konterkarieren. Der vorliegende Band möchte dem besonderen, ja einzigartigen Rang Juli Zehs gerecht werden und versammelt deshalb Essays zu Einzelwerken, aber auch zu übergreifenden Fragestellungen sowie Gesamtdeutungen ihrer bisherigen Publikationen.
