Alexandra Berlina started the topic A fantastic play? in the forum
Science Fiction and Utopian and Fantastic Literature on MLA Commons 11 years, 2 months agoDear all,
could you perhaps suggest a play that could be seen as fantastic in Todorov’s sense? (Yes, I know he didn’t want to include anyting but prose, but even Hamlet has its moments — the ghost is too clearly present on stage to be truly “fantastic” in the sense of ambiguous, though…)
Thank you!

Joshua Begley replied to the topic Science Fiction Readers Demographics in the forum
Science Fiction and Utopian and Fantastic Literature on MLA Commons 11 years, 9 months agoI don’t know as much about Latin American fantastic literature as I’d like, so I’m very interested in what you had to say, Silvia. In general, it always strikes me as odd how conservative academics can be. And in a broader sense, the whole concept of “legitimate” is troublesome because of the power issues underlying who decides what is and is not,…[Read more]

Silvia G. Kurlat-Ares replied to the topic Science Fiction Readers Demographics in the forum
Science Fiction and Utopian and Fantastic Literature on MLA Commons 11 years, 9 months agoI will agree with Josh. However, for Latin America, there is an additional twist.

Debates between realist and fantastic…[Read more]

Unfortunately, no translation available, like for most contemporary production. I hope to start working on…[Read more]
