亚当·罗伯茨(Adam Roberts),1965年生,科幻小说作家、评论家、学者,剑桥大学博士,现任伦敦大学英国文学教授。作为一名科幻小说作家,罗伯茨曾得到两次阿瑟·C. 克拉克奖的提名。他的另外一部科幻理论著作是Science Fiction: the New Critical Idiom (2000)。
The first comprehensive critical history of SF for thirty years, this book traces the origin and development of science fiction from Ancient Greece, via its rebirth in the seventeenth century, up to the present day. Concentrating on literary SF and (in the later chapters) cinema and TV, it also discusses the myriad forms this genre takes in the contemporary world, including a chapter on graphic novels, SF pop music, visual art and ufology. The author is ideally placed to write it: both an academic literary critic and also an acclaimed creative writer of science fiction, with five novels and many short stories to his credit. Written in lively, accessible prose, this study is specifically designed to bridge the worlds of academic criticism and the SF fandom. The History of Science Fiction argues that, even today, this flourishing cultural idiom is shaped by the forces that determined its rise to prominence in the 1600s: the dialogue between Protestant and Catholic worldviews, the emerging technologies of the industrial age, and the cultural anxieties and excitements of a rapidly changing world. Now available in paperback, it will be of interest to all students, researchers and fans of SF.

评分一些科幻迷保持的想法總是令我費解。仿佛在一些文學批評家眼中,科幻小說不過是打發時間的流行讀物,就極度傷害到他們的自尊。仿佛一種文學類型在他們心目中的觀感,要向評論家的觀點看齊。 為什么不能“我喜歡,就好了“呢? 文學類型無高下,只有作品有高下。硬是要說某種...
评分作者功底很深写的不错,还加入了影视漫画甚至音乐的方面,可惜翻译尤其是校对太烂了,错误太多——值得一读

评分亚当·罗伯茨在《科幻小说史》的后记中提到了非洲科幻的缺失,其实我更痛心的是中国科幻的缺失,只字未提的缺失。 西方科幻发轫于宗教改革和宇宙观大变革时期,其时是1600年,而中国最早见诸的《月球殖民地小说》发表于1904年,相距达三个世纪。我们可以归结为中国的治国理念导...
