How has humanity sought to harness the power of the Sun, and what roles have literature, art and other cultural forms played in imagining, mythologizing and reflecting the possibilities of solar energy? What stories have been told about solar technologies, and how have these narratives shaped developments in science and culture? What can solar power’s history tell us about its future, within a world adapting to climate crisis? Identifying the history of capturing solar radiance as a focal point between science and the imagination, Imagining Solar Energy argues that the literary, artistic and mythical resonances of solar power ֊ from the Renaissance to the present day ֊ have not only been inspired by, but have also cultivated and sustained its scientific and technological development. Ranging from Archimedes to Isaac Asimov, John Dee to Humphry Davy, Aphra Behn to J. G. Ballard, the book argues that solar energy translates into many different kinds of power (physical, political, intellectual and cultural), and establishes for the first time the importance of solar energy to many literary and scientific endeavours.
LJtopiari and Dystopian Themes in Tolkien’s Legendárium explores how Tolkien’s works speak to modern people ’s utopian desires despite the recent dominance of dystopian literature. It also examines how Tolkien’s malevolent societies capture many people’s fears about the trajectory of modern society. Tolkien’s works create utopian and dystopian longing while rejecting the stilted conventions of most literary utopias and dystopias. This book traces these utopian and dystopian motifs through Tolkien’s works including The Hobbit, The Lord of the Rings, The Silmanllion. The Book ojLost Tales, and Leaf by Niggle. This book analyzes Tolkien’s ideal and evil societies from a variety of angles: his sources, his environmentalism, his relationship with Catholic social doctrine, his use of myth, and finally his politics and theories of leadership. The epilogue compares Tolkien’s works to pop culture adaptations of his legendárium. |
