Westport, CT: Greenwood Press, Date: 2001. Hardcover. VG (Ex-library with stamps and labels on spine, inside front and rear covers, ffep and block. Pages are otherwise clean and clear. Binding tight.). Red cloth boards with gilt lettering; 196 pp. Surveying a wide range of major science fiction novels and films, this book focuses on the long 1950s--the period from 1946 to 1964--when the tensions of the Cold War were at their peak. It demonstrates that these works reflect their historical and political contexts through a consistent concern with such phenomena as alienation and routinization, which Marxist critics have seen as central consequences of capitalism. Through its engagement with such issues, American science fiction of this period reflects the growing hegemony of capitalist ideology and consequently demonstrates the beginnings of postmodernism as a major American cultural phenomenon. Contents: Politics in the American science fiction novel, 1946-1964 : science fiction as social criticism -- The beginning or the end? : post-holocaust novels and films, 1946-1964 -- We're there and they're here! : space exploration and alien invasion films of the long 1950s -- The creature from the Cold War : science fiction monster movies of the long 1950s. 2001.

ISBN10: 0313318735, ISBN13: 9780313318733, [publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing Plc, Westport] Hardcover Hardcover. The 1950s are widely regarded as the golden age of American science fiction. This book surveys a wide range of major science fiction novels and films from the long 1950s--the period from 1946 to 1964--when the tensions of the Cold War were at their peak. The American science fiction novels and films of this period clearly reflect Cold War anxieties and tensions through their focus on such themes as alien invasion and nuclear holocaust. In this sense they resemble the observations of social and cultural critics during the same period. Meanwhile, American science fiction of the long 1950s also engages its historical and political contexts through an interrogation of phenomena, such as alienation and routinization, that can be seen as consequences of the development of American capitalism during this period. This economic trend is part of the rise of the global phenomenon that Marxist theorists have called "late capitalism." Thus, American science fiction during this period reflects the rise of late capitalism and participates in the beginnings of postmodernism, described by Frederic Jameson as the "cultural logic of late capitalism." The 1950s are widely regarded as the golden age of American science fiction. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
