Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Ancient Greece and Rome in Modern Science Fiction introduces and analyses the reception of classical antiquity in contemporary science fiction. By using up-to-date methods from classical reception theory, science-fiction analysis and fictional-world studies, the book will help furnish the readers understanding of the ways in which the literature, culture, history and mythology of ancient Greece and Rome are appropriated and represented across multiple media platforms in the science-fiction genre today. The book will therefore serve as an entry point into several areas of study: the reception of classics in popular culture, antiquity in modern media, the uses of the ancient world in science-fiction, and broader science-fiction criticism.The chapters structured by medium principally offer a roughly chronological overview of that medium and its treatment of ancient history, mythology, literature and culture. An abundance of case studies from literature, film and television and videogames including Star Trek, Battlestar Galactica, Fallout: New Vegas, the Mass Effect franchise and Assassins Creed show how classical antiquity is reused, encountered, re-encountered by creators and consumers of the present how we bounce off it, and it bounces off us, and how this reciprocation creates new visions of Greece and of Rome. An introduction to the reception of classical antiquity in contemporary science fiction. By using up-to-date methods from classical reception theory, science-fiction analysis and fictional-world studies, it explains the ways in which the literature, culture, history and mythology of ancient Greece and Rome are appropriated and represented in the science-fiction genre today.
