  • Publisher: McFarland

Despite the growing importance of economics in our lives, literary scholars have long been reluctant to consider economic issues as they examine key texts.

Its seventeen contributors include five award-winning scholars, five science fiction writers, and a widely published economist. Three topics are covered: what noted science fiction writers like Robert A. Heinlein, Frank Herbert, and Kim Stanley Robinson have had to say about our economic and political future; how t...

La scatola nera dei ricordi in un ambiguo caso di suicidio, dispositivi di sicurezza che stampano e ristampano la realtà a ogni nuovo giorno, una navicella finita in alto nella stratosfera terrestre popolata da un'umanità fluttuante e ancora un pianeta ghiacciato come Cetus che sembra esistere soltanto nella mente di un artista performativo per finire con un magnate della finanza dall'ego così smisurato che "si reincarna" in un gigante, simbolo di una nazione intera. Sono questi gli incredibili elementi narrativi che compongono Sinosfera, la seconda antologia - dopo Nebula - di racconti di fantascienza contemporanea cinese in doppia lingua e con la prefazione del prof. Song Mingwei.
