Living with "Star Trek" : American Culture and the "Star Trek" Universe
ISBN: 9781845114213 / Angielski / Twarda / 2007 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This book is a welcome and original contribution to the world of 'Star Trek.' The book not only sets 'Star Trek' in dialogue with ideas and stories of utopia, community, self-improvement, that are central to American culture and history, but goes further to examine the complex ways in which these are taken up and used by 'ordinary' fans, who engage with 'Star Trek' in complex and significant ways. Lincoln Geraghty explores, for example, 'Star Trek's multiple histories and how 'Star Trek' and the American Jeremiad, one of the nation's foundational texts, refer back to the past to prophesy a...

The Smallville Chronicles: Critical Essays on the Television Series
ISBN: 9780810881303 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 218 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In 2001, yet another adaptation of the Superman comic book came to television. Lasting 10 seasons, Smallville took the traditional Superman story and turned it into an American teen action drama about Clark Kent's life at high school--before he donned the famous blue tights and red cape. Instead of depicting Superman's clashes with criminals in Metropolis, the show focused on how Clark first developed his powers and learned to cope with girls, school, and teenage angst. Although largely overlooked by critics and derided by Superman fans who regarded it as too far a departure from the comic...

Science fiction film and television were initially inspired by the classic literature of HG Wells and Jules Verne.

The Shifting Definitions of Genre: Essays on Labeling Films, Television Shows and Media
ISBN: 9780786434305 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 268 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Histories of science fiction often dicuss Fritz Lang's Metropolis as a classic work within the genre-yet the term "science fiction" had not been invented at the time of the film's release. If the genre did not have a name, did it exist? Does retroactive assignment to a genre change our understanding of a film? Do films shift in meaning and status as the name of a genre changes meaning over time? These provocative questions are at the heart of this book, whose thirteen essays examine the varying constructions of genre within film, television, and other entertainment media. Collectively, the...

When the first season of Star Trek opened to American television viewers in 1966, the thematically insightful sci-fi story line presented audiences with the exciting vision of a bold voyage into the final frontiers of space and strange, new galactic worlds. Moreover, it has presented an inspiring message for the future, addressing everything from social, political, philosophical, and ethical issues to progressive and humanist representations of race, gender, and class.
