Second is the connection between the graphic novel and his “cybershamanic live performances.” King and Page argue that these intermedial assemblages “foster a critical posthumanism that explores and performs new subjectivities arising from the technological extension, reinvention or transcendenc…

Still, an obvious fondness for these texts repeatedly comes through, especially as Bogue recalls his first experiences seeing many of the sf films cited here as an easily impressed—and frightened—child or later as a teenager. On those occasions the book eff…

Art. XI— On the Date and Personality of Priyadarsi
The present paper will fall into two divisions; the first of which deals with the name and date of Priyadarsi as they appear in the Edicts, whilst the second, will take notice of the doctrines introduced ab extra ; by which is meant the hypotheses connected with the names Asoka and Chandragupta. The reasons for this separation are cogent. In the first place the degrees of confidence with which the author expresses himself are different. In the on…

Subterranean Suburbia
The two film versions of Invaders from Mars provide crucial insight into the historical trajectory of suburbanization in the United States. Beneath its surface confidence in the postwar suburban project as a geographical resolution of abiding class conflict, the first film, released in 1953 during escalating Cold War preparedness, evinces deep-seated anxieties about the ethical implications of suburbia’s essential dependence upon militarist power…

Sextrapolation in New Wave Science Fiction
This essay traces how the representation of sexual content within sf became increasingly acceptable during the 1960s. Rather than treating this development as an epochal achievement of the New Wave movement, however, it argues that a significant number of innovative treatments of sexuality—as well as a sophisticated discourse regarding the pernicious effects of censorship—had already emerged within the genre during the early 1950s.

The discussion attempts to place these works in the larger context of the growth of eco…
