Given their focus on the culturally marginal, unknown, and “other,” these genres figure as diagnostic modes of storytelling, outlining the latent anxieties and social dynamics that define a culture’s “structure of feeling” at a given historical moment. The contributions in this volume map the long and continuous tradition of weird and fantastic fiction as a seismograph for eco-geographical turmoil from the nineteenth to the twenty-first century, offering innovative and insightful ecocritical readings of H. P. Lovecraft, Harriet Prescott Spofford, China Miéville, N. K. Jemisin, Thomas Ligotti, and Jeff VanderMeer, among others.. | 出版日期 | Book 2019 | 关键词 | genre fiction; weird fiction; fantasy; science fiction; spatial literary studies; geocriticism; posthumani | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-28116-8 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-030-28118-2 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-030-28116-8Series ISSN 2578-9694 Series E-ISSN 2634-5188 | issn_series | 2578-9694 | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerl |
