| adam_text | This book argues that time travel fiction is a narrative laboratory. a set¬
ting for thought experiments in which essential theoretical questions about
storytelling-and. by extension, about the philosophy of temporality, history, and
subjectivity-are represented in the form of literal devices and plots.
Drawing on physics, philosophy, narrative theory, psychoanalysis, and film
theory, the book links innovations in time travel fiction to specific shifts in the
popularization of science, from evolutionary biology in the late 1800s. through
relativity and quantum physics in the mid-twentieth century, to more recent multiverse
]
awareness of new scientific
models leads to surprising innovations in the literary time machine. which evolves
from a vehicle used chiefly for sociopolitical commentary into a psychological
and narratological device capable of exploring with great sophistication the
temporal structure and significance of subjects, viewpoints, and historical events.
The book covers works by well-known time travel writers such as H. G. Wells.
Edward Bellamy. Robert
Heinlein.
Samuel Delany, and
Harlan Ellison,
as well
as pulp fiction writers of the
1920s
through the
1940s,
popular and avant-
garde postwar science fiction, television shows such as The Twilight Zone
and Star Trek, and current cinema. Literature, film, and TV are read alongside
theoretical work ranging from
Einstein, Schrödinger,
and Hawking to Gerard
Genette, David
Lewis, and
Gilles Deleuze.
Wittenberg argues that even the most
mainstream audiences of popular time travel fiction and cinema are vigorously
engaged with many of the same questions about temporality, identity, and
