Produktinformationen zu „Atheism and Theism in Contemporary Fantasy Fiction “
This book investigates Atheism and Theism's impact on modern fantasy fiction. A newly-created form of conditional genre metric underpins the analysis. The results frame specific Theist and Atheist modes of thought and their effect on the respective narratologies, from plot methodology down to the creation of specific stylistic devices.
Klappentext zu „Atheism and Theism in Contemporary Fantasy Fiction “
The beginning of the 21st century saw the rise of "New" Atheism and a resulting conflict with Theists - at the same time as the resurgence of fantasy in popular culture. This volume analyses the impact of Theist and Atheist thought on the narratology of four highly popular works of contemporary fantastic fiction. In doing so, the work demonstrates how the ideological stances and the associated patterns of thought colour the novels' stylistic and narrative devices. The book also presents a new conditional genre metric that not only helps overcome previous impasses within fantastic genre categories but also allows insight into the aforementioned patterns of Atheist and Theist thinking.
