{"product_id":"the-cambridge-history-of-science-gerry-canavan-9781107166097","title":"The Cambridge History of Science Fiction","description":"The first science fiction course in the American academy was held in the early 1950s. In the sixty years since, science fiction has become a recognized and established literary genre with a significant and growing body of scholarship. The Cambridge History of Science Fiction is a landmark volume as the first authoritative history of the genre. Over forty contributors with diverse and complementary specialties present a history of science fiction across national and genre boundaries, and trace its intellectual and creative roots in the philosophical and fantastic narratives of the ancient past. Science fiction as a literary genre is the central focus of the volume, but fundamental to its story is its non-literary cultural manifestations and influence. Coverage thus includes transmedia manifestations as an integral part of the genre's history, including not only short stories and novels, but also film, art, architecture, music, comics, and interactive media.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Gerry Canavan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1107166098\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781107166097\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/03\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 836\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.80lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.37h x 6.36w x 1.98d","brand":"Gerry Canavan","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43947748622591,"sku":"9781107166097","price":205.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_98a68a94-e142-4750-8f41-ae0810312fea.jpg?v=1681520566","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-cambridge-history-of-science-gerry-canavan-9781107166097","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
