女性およびLGBTQ+の作家を中心にSFとジェンダーの関係に迫る初のレファレンス。文学・文化・メディア研究者の多数の寄稿にて、環境文学批評、動物研究、サイボーグ・ポストヒューマニズム理論、男性性、ゲーミングなどの幅広いテーマを考究。日本関連の3章を含む。New in paperback. Hardcover was published in 2023. The Routledge Companion to Gender and Science Fiction is the first large-scale reference work of its kind, critically assessing the relations of gender and genre in science fiction, especially - but not exclusively - as explored in speculative art by women and LGBTQ+ artists across the world. A range of both emerging and established names in media, literature, and cultural studies engage with a huge diversity of topics including eco-criticism, animal studies, cyborg and posthumanist theory, masculinity, critical race studies, Indigenous futurisms, Black girlhood, and gaming.
