亞當·羅伯茨(Adam Roberts),1965年生,科幻小說作傢、評論傢、學者,劍橋大學博士,現任倫敦大學英國文學教授。作為一名科幻小說作傢,羅伯茨曾得到兩次阿瑟·C. 剋拉剋奬的提名。他的另外一部科幻理論著作是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.
1850年--1900年的科幻小說 19世紀50年代 “1865年,德國科學傢剋勞修斯(rudolph clausius 1822-1888)提齣熱轉化為功的時候,總有一部分白白損耗掉,而且熱損耗是不可逆的,並據此造齣瞭一個新詞“熵”。在麥剋斯韋(J.C. Maxwell)和其他人的推廣下,“熵”變成瞭一種流行...
評分首先要強調一點,這本書百分百是一部規範的學術論著。也許有人要問,學術論著留給學術圈的人去讀好瞭,科幻迷湊啥熱鬧?但是,正如羅伯茨自己說的,科幻粉絲是一個龐大、熱切、聰慧並且各執己見的讀者群,他們通常能言善辯、知識豐富且願意提高自己的理論學術修養(最後一...
評分這本來應該是一本好書,姑且不論原書學術性如何、譯者翻譯水平怎樣,但畢竟是對國內較少觸及的一個領域的引介。 但是,這本書通篇充斥著病句、錯字、多字,簡直讓人讀不下去。書名翻譯不統一,相隔五六頁就有齣現兩種譯法;對於科學和文學術語的不熟悉導緻術語翻譯與慣譯不符;...
評分後記 21世紀的科幻小說 筆者再以結論的方式重申一下本書的主要觀點,也說明一下選擇特定科幻文本的理由——越往後對於科幻作品必然變得有選擇性。 首先要說的是,筆者並不是在論證“所有科幻小說都編譯進瞭宗教神話”。這種觀點顯然不正確。當代科幻色彩斑駁,精彩紛呈,任何...
評分作者功底很深寫的不錯,還加入瞭影視漫畫甚至音樂的方麵,可惜翻譯尤其是校對太爛瞭,錯誤太多——值得一讀
