Disputing the Deluge joins a rapidly growing renewal of critical interest in Suvin's work on scifi and utopianism by bringing together in a single volume 24 of Suvin's most significant interventions in the field from the 21st century, with an Introduction by editor Hugh O'Connell and a new preface by the author. Beginning with writings from the early 2000s that investigate the function of literary genres and reconsider the relationship between science fiction and fantasy, the essays collected here-each a brilliant example of engaged thought-highlight the value of scifi for grappling with the key events and transformations of recent years. Suvin's interrogations show how speculative fiction has responded to 9/11, the global war on terror, the 2008 economic collapse, and the rise of conservative populism, along with contemporary critical utopian analyses of the Capitalocene, the climate crisis, COVID-19, and the decline of democracy. By bringing together Suvin's essays all in one place, this collection allows new generations of students and scholars to engage directly with his work and its continuing importance and timeliness"-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 650 0 $a Science fiction $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a Utopias in literature. 650 0 $a Literary form. 650 7 $a Literary form. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00999924 650 7 $a Science fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01108566 650 7 $a Utopias in literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01163372 655 2 $a Essay $0 (DNLM)D020474 655 7 $a essays. $2 aat $0 (CStmoGRI)aatgf300026291 655 7 $a Criticism, interpretation, etc. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411635 655 7 $a Essays. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01919922 655 7 $a Essays. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Essais. $2 rvmgf $0 (CaQQLa)RVMGF-000000478 776 08 $i Online version: $a Suvin, Darko. $t Disputing the deluge $d New York : Bloomsbury Academic, 2021 $z 9781501384783 $w (DLC) 2021022803 700 1 $a O'Connell, Hugh C., $e editor. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117033249.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=3FEA47E8072811ED93C2E7E557ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
