Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Before 'The X-Files' there was 'Star Trek.' Unrivaled in the fanaticism and devotion of its fans, it was easily the most cerebral show of its age. 'Star Trek' brought a literary sophistication to the raw material of science fiction and confounded all the formulas of television.The Meaning of Star Trek captures the essence of this timeless television masterpiece by examining it in the context of literary and social history, anthropology, myth, and religion: how it grew from the tradition of great science fiction writing; how the history of the show's Federation reconfigures our own; how its stories relate to classic myths; and how its tales of magic, marvel, and miracles appeal to our sense and suspicion of Western religion.
