Abstract The paper analyses some aspects of South African science fiction, starting with its beginnings in the 1920s and focusing on some 21st century writings. Thus Lauren Beukes’ novels Moxyland (2008) and Zoo City (2010) are taken into consideration in order to present new trends in South African literature and the way science fiction has been marked by Apartheid. The second South African science fiction writer whose writings are examined is Henrietta Rose-Innes (with her novel Nineveh, published in 2011) as this consolidates women's presence in the SF world.

Abstract:

During the first two decades of the 21st century an increasing amount of narratives termed as Arabic dystopian fiction appeared on the Arabic literary scene, with a greater part authored by Egyptian writers. However, what characterises/marks a work as a dystopia? This paper investigates the dystopian nature of a selection of Egyptian literary works within the frame of the dystopian narrative tradition. The article begins by introducing the features of the traditional literary dystopias as they will be used in the analysis. It then gives a brief overview of the development of the genre in the Arabic literature. The discussion that follows highlights common elements and identifies specific themes in six Egyptian novels selected for the analysis, thereby highlighting differences and similarities between them and the traditional Western dystopias. The article calls for a categorisation of Arabic dystopian narrative that takes into consideration social, political, historical and cultural factors specific for the Arabic in general, and Egyptian in particular, literary field. Keywords: Arabic literature, dystopia, dystopian literature, contemporary literature, Egypt, fiction, speculative fiction.

Abstract:

The postcolonial fiction of the 21st century has developed a new version of family chronicle depicting the life of several generations of migrants to demonstrate the complexity of their experience, different for each generation. This article aims at investigating this tradition from the perspective of three urgent problems: trauma, postcolonial experience, and the “female” theme. The author uses the most illustrative modern women’s postcolonial writings (Z. Smith, Ju. Chang) to show the types of trauma featured in postcolonial literature as well as the change in the character of traumatic experience, including the migrant’s automythologization from generation to generation. There are several types of trauma, or stages experienced by migrants: historical, migration and selfidentification, more or less correlated with three generations of migrants. Historical trauma is the most severe and most often insurmountable for the first generation. It generates a myth about the past, terrible or beautiful, depending on the writer’s intention realized at the level of the writer or the characters. A most expanded form of this trauma can be found in the novel Wild Swans by Jung Chang, where the “female” experience underlines the severity of the historical situation in the homeland of migrants. The trauma of migration manifests itself as a situation of deterritorialization, lack of place, when the experience of the past dominates and prevents the migrants from adapting to a new life. This situation is clearly illustrated in the novel White Teeth by Z. Smith, where the first generation of migrants cannot cope with the effects of trauma. The trauma of selfidentification promotes a fictitious identity in the younger generation of migrants. Unable to join real life communities, they create automyths, joining fictional communities based on cultural myths (Muslim organizations, rap culture, environmental organizations). Such examples can be found in Z. Smith’s White Teeth and On Beauty. Thus, the problem of trauma undergoes erosion, because, strictly speaking, with each new generation, the event experienced as traumatic is less worth designating as such. Compared to historical trauma or the trauma of migration, trauma of self-identification is rather a psychological problem that affects the emotional sphere and is quite survivable for most of the characters.

Abstract:

This paper presents an analysis of Isolde Amante’s Eve, a 21st century Philippine fiction to reveal a contemporary worldview of motherhood. Despite the success of feminist movements in society, motherhood remains fraught with romantic ideals that stem from the essentialist notions of gender and sex. This results in ‘othering’--oppressing and alienating women in the 21st century. The paper argued that the entire notion of motherhood has entered a postmodern framing—one that challenges traditional notions of motherhood and mothering. To characterize this worldview, the paper used the theories of cognitive stylistics, such as conceptual metaphor theory, to describe the mind style of the text’s focalizer, the narrator in Eve. This theory granted access to the intricate mental processes which helped explain why a character behaves a certain why, what dispositions s/he hold in life, as well as what motivations form his/her thoughts, language and action. Further, the mind style is drawn from the communicative force that make up the ‘maternal discourse’ in the text, using Searle’s Speech Act theory. The result is an unorthodox but liberating view of motherhood and mothering. The study argues the need to mainstream mind style analysis in 21st century fiction literary analysis to discover evolving and liberating ideals related to the constructions of gender, and in particular, motherhood.

Abstract:

In this research, it is aimed to investigate impact of science activities applied with non-fiction science picture books on 21st century skills of 60-72 months old children. The study was conducted with a total of 58 children, in other words 29 children in the experimental group and 29 children in the control group. In the research, quantitative data were obtained with the 21st century skills scale which as given to children before and after the application, and the obtained data were construed by using statistical analyzes. In the light of the results obtained from the research, it can be observed that applying science acitivities through/via the non-fiction science books positively supported the 21st century skills and their sub-dimension skills such as “learning and innovation”, “living and career”, and “information-media and technology” skills of the children.

Akhtar, Jaleel. "Dismemberment in the fiction of Toni Morrison." Thesis, University of Sussex, 2015. http://sro.sussex.ac.uk/id/eprint/53849/.

Full text

Abstract:

Dismemberment in the Fiction of Toni Morrison investigates the motif of dismemberment in Morrison's fiction from multiple perspectives—historical, psychological and cultural. My first chapter on A Mercy focusses on the aspect of historical dismemberment in the context of colonialism and slavery. I look at the forced separation of African Americans from their families and motherland in terms of originary experiences of racism and dismemberment. This entailed fragmentation for African Americans who struggled to develop strategies of survival in the New World. My second chapter on Jazz focuses on the impact of transgenerationally transmitted trauma. I argue that experiences of dismemberment – such as feelings of amputation and phantom limbs – arise not from physical amputation but from traumatic experiences and the unconscious of preceding generations as the result of trasgenerational hauntings. I borrow from the psychoanalytic insights of Nicolas Abraham and Maria Torok in my explanation of phantom limbs in Jazz. The third section of my project looks at how social order is brought about in the fictive community of Sula through the scapegoating mechanism. I define the scapegoating principle in Sula in terms of cultural dismemberment because of the ways the community members symbolically cut a pariah figure, like Sula, off by performing symbolic acts of violence. The characterization of Sula emphasizes the psychological need for a scapegoat figure who can give an outlet to the defensive tendencies of the community following discrimination. My final chapter focusses on Morrison's most recent novel Home, which is about homecoming. In this novel, Morrison continues with her project of imagining a space of domestic and social comfort which is physically and psychically safe in the broad sense of a homeland for African Americans. Home offers a place of salvation from social, historical and psychic fragmentation or the traumas of racism which result in experiences of disruption, amputation and dismemberment.

West, Mark Peter. "Between times : 21st century American fiction and the long sixties." Thesis, University of Glasgow, 2014. http://theses.gla.ac.uk/5621/.

Full text

Abstract:

This thesis examines conceptions of time and history in five American novels published between 1995 and 2012 which take as their subject matter events associated with the counterculture and New Left of the 1960s and 1970s. The thesis is organized around close readings of five novels. The first chapter focuses on Jennifer Egan’s The Invisible Circus (1995) and argues that it incorporates a number of problematic temporal experiences which have the effect of establishing a key tension of all the novels considered here: the concern with contextualizing and historicizing particular events and cultural atmospheres while remaining faithful to utopian ideas of radical change. Chapter two argues that Dana Spiotta’s Eat the Document (2006) is oriented both structurally and thematically towards a future in which the relationship between the 1960s and 1990s will more clearly understandable. The third chapter examines the way Christopher Sorrentino’s Trance (2005) explores the multiplicitous nature of historical narratives, and how he distinguishes between those narratives and a conception of the bare events beneath them. The focus of chapter four is Lauren Groff’s Arcadia (2012) and examines how conceptions of the relationship between humans and nature influence theories of time, mythic histories and post-apocalyptic narratives. The final chapter on David Foster Wallace’s The Pale King (2011) argues that the tension between continuation and change found in the conversion narrative is partly reconciled by a conception of time that allows the moment of radical utopian change (the moment of conversion) to be one of re-entrance into history. At stake throughout is the way these novels’ interpretation of particular events and larger cultural tendencies reveals and makes manifest various processes of historicization. I maintain a dual focus on the way these novels present historicization as something undertaken by individuals and societies and the ways in which these novels themselves not only engage in historicizations of the period but are in various ways self-conscious about doing so. If contemporary scholarship on the emergence of what has been called post-postmodern literature (Stephen J. Burn, Andrew Hoberek, Adam Kelly, Caren Irr) identifies a return to temporal concerns in recent fiction, the readings that comprise my thesis also make use of conceptions of time and history by Mark Currie, Jacques Derrida, Reinhold Niebuhr, Norman Mailer, Christopher Lasch, and Robert N. Bellah (among others) in order to ask: what are the particular material contours of the experiences of time and history manifested in these recent examples of the ‘sixties novel’?

Abstract:

A spectre is haunting contemporary technoculture: the spectre of Singularity. Ten years into a century thus far characterized chiefly by the catastrophic failure of global economic and political systems, deepening ecological anxieties, and slow-motion social crisis, the only sector of our collective cultural myth of Progress still vibrantly intact is the technological - a project which, in vivid contrast to the systemic failure that seemingly prevails at nearly every other level, continues to charge forward at breakneck speed. Since the late twentieth century, prompted by the all-but-exponential growth of machine intelligence and global information networks, and by the still largely obscure but increasingly profound-seeming implications of emerging nanotechnology, futurists and fabulists alike have postulated an imminent historical threshold whereupon the nature of human existence will be radically and irrevocably transformed in a sudden explosion of technological development. This moment of transcendence, it is supposed, is at most only a few years off; indeed, some say, it may have already begun. The "Singularity" - a term coined in 1986 by the mathematician and science fiction writer Vernor Vinge, and subsequently adopted throughout technocultural discourse - is at present the primary site of interpenetration between technoscientific and science-fictional figurations of the future, an area in which the longstanding binary distinctions between science and SF, and between present and future, are rapidly dissolving. As much as the Singularity thesis implies a total reorganization of society and of the self - which posthumanist cultural studies and cyborg theory have already begun mapping - it also poses a daunting existential challenge to the enterprise of SF itself, to the extent that the Singularity imposes what Vinge has described as "an opaque wall across the future," an impenetrable cognitive obstacle beyond which the extrapolative imagination cannot glimpse. For a genre long defined by its efforts to assert, through the narrative technique of extrapolation, a meaningful continuity between present and future, the Singularity presents a thorny problem indeed, demanding both a reevaluation of SF's conception of and orientation toward the future, and a new narrative model capable of grappling with the alien and often paradoxical complexity of the postsingular. This study is an inquiry into the properties and problematics of Singularity across fictional and nonfictional discourses, and as such it operates on two levels. Reading Singularitarian literature against a broadly articulated context of fringe-science and transhumanist movements, consumer culture, political and economic theory, and related areas of contemporary cyber- and technoculture, I examine how the metaphor of Singularity structures and signifies the aspirations and anxieties of late-twentieth and early twenty-first century technocivilization. As a project of literary criticism specifically, the study works to identify and theorize a grouping of texts that is emerging from cyberpunk and postcyberpunk tendencies in contemporary SF, organized around the premises of Singularity and the posthuman, and classifiable primarily in terms of an attempt to mount a response to the formal and conceptual problems Vinge has identified. Primary readings are drawn from a wide-ranging selection of twentieth- and twenty-first-century technocultural fiction, with emphasis on SF works by Charles Stross, Cory Doctorow, Neal Stephenson, Bruce Sterling, Rudy Rucker, and William Gibson.

Abstract:

This collection of short stories studies the elements of genre fiction and applies them to literary fiction. Science fiction, fantasy, and horror have specific manners in which they speak to an audience. By using these elements, for example the desensitization of the current generation of readers to most horrors, an author can demonstrate the core of the human relationship to pain, faith, or hope. Though some genre fiction seems to fit certain formulas, there are also horror or science fiction stories which do not fit a conventional mold. This collection sets forth to break away from genre fiction conventions. Also, this project utilizes the genre of magical realism, which is the medium between genre fiction and literary fiction, by using fantastic events within a mundane setting to emphasize the author's ideas. By bridging the gap between genres, magical realism reveals how interrelated the elements of all genres are. In this study stories use magical and horrifying events while maintaining an intention beyond the formulaic thrill. Therefore, genre fiction can have a place amongst literature.

Halliday, Sophie. "Representations of gender and subjectivity in 21st century American science fiction television." Thesis, University of East Anglia, 2014. https://ueaeprints.uea.ac.uk/51483/.

Full text

Abstract:

This thesis interrogates representations of gender and subjectivity within 21st century American science fiction television. It recognises a recent convergence of generic concerns, the shifting contexts of television, and the cultural context of 21st century America. Identifying a recent shift in how American science fiction television of this era has engaged with issues of gender and subjectivity, I offer an exploration of this trend via four key texts: Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles (FOX, 2008-2009), Fringe (FOX, 2008-2013), Battlestar Galactica (SyFy, 2004-2009) and Caprica (SyFy, 2009-2010). The importance of this thesis lies in its exploration of new representational strategies in contemporary science fiction television in relation to the female body, and its consideration of the wider socio-cultural concerns of America in the 21st century. Previous attempts have been made to examine the socio-political import of certain series this thesis interrogates. I intervene in these debates by offering a much more focused interrogation of gender and subjectivity in 21st century science fiction television, via the framework of acclaimed and newly emerging series. Utilising a methodological approach that involves detailed textual analysis informed by social and cultural theory, I situate my case study series within the socio-cultural context of 21st century America. As such, this thesis covers a broad range of current representations that speak to how constructions of gender and subjectivity within a contemporary US cultural context are currently being worked through. Foregrounding an engagement with a particularly fraught period of American history via the female body, I argue that the protagonists my case study series present offer a positive intervention in previous estimations of how the female body has been utilised in film and television. As such, this thesis considers the implications of this particular context upon how these protagonists are represented by these newly emerging series.

Full text

Abstract:

This thesis investigates patterns of contemporary Chinese and American fiction reflecting and refracting neoliberal subjectivity. This essay adopts David Foster Wallace’s disapproving motif of ‘gears’ as an organising metaphor for neoliberal reductions of subjectivity, forcing eruption of potentialities as literal and figurative ‘ghosts’ seeking escape from diegetic worlds. The Cartesian dichotomy (ghosts/gears), derived from British philosopher Gilbert Ryle’s notion of the “ghost in the machine,” is balanced in strangely consistent yet contrasting ways by all characters who synthesise entrepreneurialism with spirituality, communalism, ecology, and ethnicity. American Wallace’s The Pale King reveals a gentle, spiritual rebellion against neoliberal hegemony wherein characters protest the existential paucity of bureaucratic labour, instead seeking monastic, hedonistic transcendence. In Paul Beatty’s The Sellout impoverished African-Americans are estranged from racially-striated, capitalist ‘machinery,’ pioneering liminal neo-economic spaces and rejuvenating industry through a radical return to ‘magical’ ethno-subjectivity. The Chinese novels display both cosmopolitan and rural capitalism, sounding alarmist timbres in tracing work’s transnational, technological, ecological and eschatological dangers. In Chen Qiufan’s The Waste Tide, capitalist overdeterminations augment worker flesh and selfhood, disrupting feng shui and precipitating cataclysm. Likewise, Yan Lianke’s The Day the Sun Died shows mercantilism as antagonistic to spiritual-temporal ontologies. The comparative study reveals American admonitions of neoliberalism as parochial, compared with panoramic, macrocosmic concerns in Chinese fictive violence, cognisant of globalisation. Despite continental distance, all texts imagine spectral, subjective potentiality in pneumatic tension with neoliberal demands. These trans-Pacific, bi-national texts resist economic totalitarianism, imagining alternative ontologies.

Full text

Abstract:

Dystopian fiction as intended in the Western literary tradition is a 20 th century phenomenon on the Arabic literary scene. This relatively new genre has been experiencing an uplift since the beginning of the 21st century and many works that have been defined dystopias have been published and translated into English in the last 10 – 15 years. In order to find out their main features, Claeys’s categorization of literary dystopias is applied and a thematic analysis is carried out on four Arabic dystopian works of narrative, written by authors from different parts of the Arabic world. The analysis shows that 21st century Arabic dystopias are political dystopias, with totalitarianism as their main variation. Rather than on society, their focus is on the individual, and more specifically on personal freedom. The totalitarian constraints are mainly caused by religious fundamentalism and bureaucratic procedures. Surveillance and control over population are implemented by means of religious precepts and bureaucratic constructions, together with, in some instances, control over language and technological devices. Political totalitarianism regardless of a specific political ideology is identified as main theme. The thesis suggests that a Western-based classification framework is only partially suitable for Arabic dystopian fiction of the 21st century and that further research, including but not limited to a specific classification theory for Arabic dystopian fiction, is necessary to properly investigate this new literary trend in Arabic literature.

Abstract:

Translated fiction has had a special place in the Latvian book publishing since its beginnings in the 16th century. It has not changed even in the 21st century. High-quality translation and publishing of fiction is still unthinkable without enterprising and responsible publishers, which attract highly qualified translators. However, due to the Internet and social media, in the 21st century in Latvia the translators themselves more and more frequently gain recognition in the public sphere. Without the mediation of publishing houses, translators communicate with readers both on the Internet and at various events, – these communications frequently include the issues related to translation (translation quality, new words in translations, training of new translators, etc.). In other words, translators are playing an increasingly prominent role in the book publishing cycle. The research revealed an abundant range of activities related to translators and translation, confirming the important role thereof not only in the book publishing, but also in Latvian cultural life.

Abstract:

This paper explores the transformative journey of Artificial Intelligence (AI) from its conceptual origins in science fiction to its profound impact on the 21st-century technological landscape. The study delves into the historical evolution of AI, tracing its roots in literary and cinematic works and examining how these creative visions have shaped and inspired the development of real-world AI technologies. It highlights key milestones in AI research and development, illustrating how theoretical models and algorithms have transitioned into practical applications that permeate various sectors such as healthcare, finance, automotive, and more. The paper also addresses the ethical, social, and economic implications of AI, discussing both the opportunities it presents and the challenges it poses, such as job displacement, privacy concerns, and the need for regulatory frameworks. Through a comprehensive analysis, this paper aims to provide a nuanced understanding of how AI has evolved from a speculative idea into a central pillar of modern technology, fundamentally altering human interaction, business practices, and societal norms.

Abstract:

The article deals with satirical tendencies in Swedish literature and cinema of the end of the 20th — beginning of the 21st century. On the example of the book by C.-J. Vallgren “This is for you for a brochure, Mr. Bachmann” and R. Östlund’s paintings “Turist” (“Force Majeure”), “Voluntarily-compulsory”, “The Square” and “Triangle of Sadness”, the main problems of Swedish society are analyzed, which are becoming pan-European scale. The paper concludes that both authors consider the most significant problems to be the disappearance of independent thinking, the distortion of ethical principles, the fear of losing personal well-being against the backdrop of growing ethnic and class contradictions in Europe, indicating the beginning of a new socio-political stage in society. Comprehending European double standards, hypocrisy, ostentatious political correctness, the authors testify that European society is turning into a refined capitalist minority that has lost its main value orientation — Christian humanism. The poetics of the literary and cinematographic works of Vallgren and Östlund differ significantly from the methods of their predecessors: modern authors abandon the satirical principles of secondary convention, allowing themselves only slight exaggeration. This testifies to the desire for journalism, documentary depiction, the movement from fiction to non-fiction, to the understanding of the historical context and socio-political perspective.

Abstract:

Additive manufacturing gained popularity in the 2000s and is now considered a new or emerging technology of the 21st century. However, the origin of the process is much older and has existed for several decades, more precisely since the 19th century, when it appeared in small science fiction novels. In addition to these layer-by-layer approaches, there are also additive tomographic or volumetric approaches that allow the 3D object to be printed in a single step. These approaches, along with 3D printing of smart materials, are not so popular and consequently not fully understood or utilised. Thus, the paper briefly outlines the history of the transition from classical 2.5D printing, to 3D or non-planar printing, to 4D printing (with smart materials), to 5D printing (on equipment with more than three degrees of freedom), to 6D printing (a combination of 4D and 5D printing) and finally to volumetric printing. The future perspective of this technology are briefly presented with some application and examples.

Abstract:

Arguing for the importance of e-learning in developing the engineering students' reading comprehension skills in English for achieving proficiency for academic and work purposes in the multicultural 21st century society, this paper shows that a special focus on using e-learning tools such as e-readers and certain recommended websites plays an important role in meeting our teaching objective and in fulfilling the students' educational needs. These e-learning tools motivate and encourage the engineering students to read at least a minimal bibliography in English to enable them to successfully meet the demands for professional communication, argumentation and writing in the English language seminars in a technical university. Using e-readers and the specialized websites, including the online libraries, to read English fiction and non-fiction to advance the engineering students' knowledge of English and to develop their reading comprehension skills for the Cambridge English exams, for academic and career purposes will lead to achieving proficiency in this foreign language. Not only will these e-learning tools help the students to advance their knowledge of English, but they will also enable them to broaden their cultural and knowledge horizon, to be up-to-date with the latest societal, career changes and challenges in our society. That is why this paper will enlarge upon: 1) the importance of using e-learning tools such as e-readers and specialized websites to develop the engineering students' reading comprehenshin skills in English for achieving proficiency in this language for academic and career purposes; 2) the students' perspective on the importance of e-learning tools for developing their reading comprehension skills in English; 3) a methodological approach to developing the engineering students' reading comprehenshion skills in English using e-learning tools. Being fond of using technology for e-learning purposes, the engineering students will be motivated to use e-readers to read more recommended English texts, including fiction, non-fiction and specialized technical literature, in order to develop their reading comprehension skills in English for linguistic, academic and career purposes.

Abstract:

статья представляет собой дискурсивный анализ реплик героев современной художественной прозы, семантически соотнесенных с образом мигрантов. Автор прослеживает, как исторически сложившиеся представления о совокупности качеств, присущих определенному лингвокультурному сообществу, преломляются в диалогах литературных героев XXI века. И, наоборот, как художественные образы, созданные авторами современной прозы, отражают позицию общества по отношению к миграционному процессу и его проявлениям. the article presents a discursive analysis of the replicas of the modern fiction heroes, semantically correlated with the image of migrants. The author traces how the historically formed ideas about the qualities inherent in a certain linguistic and cultural community are refracted in the dialogues of literary heroes of the 21st century. And, conversely, how artistic images created by authors of modern literature reflect the position of society in relation to the migration process and its manifestations.
