O knihe

This study confronts current influential theories that science fiction is either an American phenomenon or an international one. The study rejects the idea that British science fiction is distinguishable only by its pessimistic outlook, while also rejecting the idea that other designations, such as "scientific romance" or "speculative fiction," better fit the British product. Instead, the study traces the evolution of British science fiction, showing how H.G. Wells synthesized various strains in English literature, and how later writers, conscious of this Wellsian tradition, built upon Wells's essentially literary achievement.
