内容説明・目次
内容説明
Although
critics continue to debate whether Jules Verne's work is "true"
science fiction (SF), rather than scientific romance, Verne is widely credited
as one of the founders of the genre and in the popular imagination, he and SF
are seen as largely synonomous. Verne has received renewed attention since the
publication in 1994 of his "Paris au Vingtieme Siecle", and this has
highlighted his importance as a key commentator on the anguishes of modernity.
Arthur B. Evans provides a detailed account of the relationship between Verne
and the French literary canon, demonstrating the "now-ineluctable trend
towards rehabilitation and literary canonization". Daniel Compere exmines
narrative technique, versimilitude, defamiliarization, naturalization and dialogism
in Verne's work, while Timothy Unwin develops the enquiry into the nature of
the Vernian text in discussing the role of science and textual repetition. The
interface between realism, utopianism and SF in a number of Verne's novels is
investigated by Sarah Capitano.
