Crisis on Callisto
Callisto, converted from one of Jupiter’s moons to a giant space station in the greatest human endeavour in history, speeds through empty space on its sixty-year mission to reach the Elysian System, a possible new living space for Earth’s population. The occupants of Callisto carry on with their lives and work in the seven connected domes, accustomed to an existence of isolation and routine. Suddenly, a malevolent presence appears in Callisto’s complex hardware and software network. People die, victims of apparently malfunctioning systems. Vital data is obliterated by instructions sent from seemingly nowhere. Manufacturing machinery goes haywire. The crew of Callisto, terrified, attempt to carry on as usual. Deputy Security Chief Rey Barrett, an expert in Community Policing and peaceful negotiation and a man of limited network knowledge, is faced with the task of finding and neutralising the evil presence. Accompanied by his inexperienced assistant, Julie, Rey faces more and more vicious attacks on Callisto inhabitants and property as he fights to find and combat the frighteningly able and intelligent villain.

Genetic Criticism in Motion
Genetic criticism investigates creative processes by analysing manuscripts and other archival sources. It sheds light on authors’ working practices and the ways works are developed on the writer’s desk or in the artist’s studio. This book provides a cross-section of current international trends in genetic criticism, half a century after the birth of the discipline in Paris. The last two decades have witnessed an expansion of the field of study with new kinds of research objects and new forms of archival material, along with various kinds of interdisciplinary intersections and new theoretical perspectives. The essays in this volume represent various European literary and scholarly traditions discussing creative processes from Polish poetry to French children’s literature, as well as topical issues such as born-digital literature and the application of forensic methodology to manuscript studies. The book is intended for scholars and students of literary criticism and textual scholarship, together with anyone interested in the working practices of writers, illustrators, and editors.
