Opis:
In the chapter Mission: Outbreak. A Fear of Mutation as the World-building Basis for the StarCraft II Trilogy, Krzysztof M. Maj recognizes the postmodern reinterpretation of the figure of the zombie in real-time-strategy-based world-building. Having considered a zombie-centric narrative as central to both the game mechanics (survival scenariosin zombie-infested gameworlds, fortification and last-stands design in tower defense games etc.) and to the retroactive nature of post-apocalypse (zombies as remi niscence of a former human form), the author proceeds with a detailed analysis of the two major aspects of the StarCraft II storyline: the anthropocentric fear of mutation and xenonological need for evolution through assimilation. All things considered, the chapter invites a critical reading of postcolonial and paradigmatic discourses that allows Terrans and the Protoss to reduce the Zerg’s xenobiological ability to evolve through infesting other lifeforms and absorbing theirgenetic material to a mere parasitism and a travesty of the proces of natural evolution. Interpreted as zombie like xenomorphs, the Zerg seem to reveal an unexpected depth in their design which all the more contributes to a better understanding of how the myth of zombism may influence science fiction and fantastic world-building.

Opis:
Krzysztof M. Maj in the chapter “La vendita del fumo”. On Isolationism, Happiness, and Perfection in Eutopian Storyworlds delivers a historial analysis of literary eutopias from classical texts by Thomas More, Tommaso Campanella, or Francis Bacon up to more contemporary iterations in the analysed genre. Most predominantly, the paper re-introduces such theoretical concepts as “sieged mentality”, teleo-eudaimonism, the sphere of idolum, topothesia, carentia defectus, as well as multiple philosophical approaches to isolationism and happiness—aiming at composing a definition of eutopia as not necessarily a narrative, but a living fictional world. Furthermore, the author proposes to view eutopia from allotopian (i.e. acknowledging the worldliness of the world and discouraging interpretations that frame eutopian worlds as fantastic and, ipso facto, unreal or unrelevant as secondary, subcreated worlds) perspective in order to deconstruct a postcolonial, diastatic relationship between the continent of empeiria and the island of (e)utopia. By doing so, he also tries to evade another crude juxtaposition that is the unequivocal difference between eutopia and dystopia—which, in the proposed approach, intertwine with each another as envisioning equaly logocentric, ethnocentric, and egocentric societies. It is only “a progression toward an attainable perfection” that allows utopias to become eutopian, performatively perfecting their status quo in order to reach Duns Scotus’ (unreachable) ideal of perfection understood teleologically as the finis ad quem res principaliter ordinatur. Last but not least, the chapter interpretes a number of Polish eutopian texts rarelier discussed in utopian studies, such as Antoni Lange’s Miranda, Stanisław Lem’s Eden, Wizja lokalna [Observation on the Spot], Golem XIV, or Janusz Zajdel’s Utopia—referring to both Polish, and international prominent contepts in generally understood utopianism.

Opis:
The article Silmarillion—J. R. R. Tolkien’s Allotopia From Ardological Perspective aims at outlining the methodology for studying Tolkien’s world-building project without the need of acknowledging the text-centered reading paradigm. Having differentiated tolkienology, as text-focused, philological studies, from ardology, understood as world-building studies, Maj deconstructs the use of Tolkienian’s “subcreation” in literary theory as far too indebted in the metaphysics of presence to establish a neutral framework for studying the process of constructing a fictional reality. With the examples from Silmarillion—perhaps the best instance of modern mythography, in no way resembling the narrative arc of a prototypical fantasy novel—the author builds up on the notion of “allotopia” as the world independent insofar to create its own ontologies, topographies, languages, philosophy, history, literature, art, or even physical artifacts—without the need of anchoring the overall creation in a metaphysical paradigm. Correspondingly, the text offers an insight to a number of theories in postclassical narratology or postmodern philosophy that may help in understanding the scale of Tolkien’s solemn contribution to the art of fantastic world-building.

Opis:
English summary In the chapter Horror of the Systemic Unawareness. On A Dystopian Reality of Mira Grant’s “Newslfesh” Krzysztof M. Maj invites a Foucauldian reading of the eponymous fear of being unaware of the truth about the “founding lie” of dystopian sociostasis. While doing so, he proceeds with an analysis of the basic components of dystopian narrative, pondering on the subtle relationships between the so-called young adult dystopias, postapocalyptic lore, and “political technology of the body”—with the latter being an ultimate tool of authoritatian control observed in Newsflesh trilogy. Simultaneously, the chapter serves as a concise introduction to contemporary world-centered dystopian narratives, greatly inspired by a deconstructive approach to utopian and dystopian studies, with a particular emphasis on the subversion of metaphysical paradigms and binary oppositions, critique of logocentrism and panopticism, or dissemination of power/knowledge. Finally, Maj argues that the state of unawareness may be both a curse and a blessing in a dystopian reality—a curse, as it strikes fear into the hearts of subdued citizens who learn thereby to be afraid of any rebellious activities, and a blessing, as it may inspire a strong individual to overcome their fear and challenge the reign of oppressive authorities.

Opis:
The aim of the chapter Xenotopography and Xenoencyclopaedia. Bernhard Waldenfel’s Thought in World-building studies is to adapt the philosopher’s project of “phenomenology as xenology” to literary theory, with a particular emphasis on fantastic poetics and world-building studies. Referencing Waldenfel’s Topography of the Other and Basic Motifs of the Phenomenology of the Other, as well as his article In the place of Other from „Continental Philosophy Review”, the paper compares the project of xenotopography to the narratological notion of “xenoencyclopaedia”, developed by Richard Saint-Galeis and inspired by Umberto Eco’s studies on the “world of Encyclopaedia” and “encyclopaedic competence”. Having articulated a topographical depiction of otherness as presented by Waldenfels, and expanding Husserlian dichotomy of the known and unknown world with his notion of the Third (who clearly seems to merge with the figure of literary recipient), the paper finally proceeds with proposing a “world-sensitive” approach to fantasy world-building studies. Shown as such, the aforementioned concept proves to be well-aligned with theoretical notions arose after so-called topographical turn in cultural studies.

Opis:
A part of the fascination of Left Hand of Darkness—as well as the ambiguity of its ultimate message—derives from the reductive and subterranean drive within it toward a utopian „rest,” toward some ultimate „no-place” of a collectivity untormented by sex or history. The attempt, in the portrayal of feudal Karhide, to imagine something like a West that has never known capitalism is of a piece, structurally and in spirit, with Le Guin’s attempt, in the portrayal of the ambisexuality of the Gethenians, to imagine biology without desire. Le Guin’s underlying identification between sex as a well-nigh gratuitous complication of existence and capitalism as a disease of change and meaningless evolutionary momentum is powerfully conveyed by the technique of world-reduction: in world reduction, omission functions as utopian exclusion. Karhide is not, of course, a utopia, but it is now clear that The Left Hand of Darkness served as a proving ground for The Dispossessed. The Odonian civilization of barren Annares becomes the most through-going application of the world reduction technique at the same time that it constitutes a timely rebuke to present attempts to parlay American abundance and consumerism into some ultimate vision of the „great society”.

Opis:
The first Polish translation of one of the best-known articles on the poetics of science fiction, considered nowadays a must-read reference in the field. In this classical piece, Darko Suvin famously argues in favour of introducing the concept of cognitive estrangement modelled after Viktor Shklovsky’s ostranenie (often questionably rendered as defamiliarisation) as well as Bertolt Brecht’s Verfremdungseffekt (as defined in his Kleines Organon für das Theater). Arguing, in due course, for acknowledging the cognitive and epistemological potential of thus defined estrangement, Suvin proceeds to introduce and analyse two distinct models for studying science fiction from both historical and formalist perspective—the extrapolative model and analogic model—which altogether help at outlining features of the most prototypal science fiction. This translation is also supplemented with an addendum from 2014 wherein the author revisits his thoughts from Marxist perspective and ponders on their relevance in reference to a more politically inclined debate in science fiction studies.

Opis:
Fantasy literature in the 1980s underwent a revisionist change, which resulted in the emergence of a number of subgenres that challenged the dominant Tolkien model of fantasy writing. One such subgenre, which continues in popularity today, is urban fantasy. Urban fantasy is distinguished by real-world urban settings unsettled by the presence of the supernatural and the non-rational. The classification of the subgenre has predominantly been commercial or industry-based, with little critical or theoretical evaluation undertaken to define or establish its parameters. Within a limited frame of reference the article Theorizing the Emergent Subgenre of Urban Fantasy aims at offering a classificatory framework that identifies the distinctive elements of urban fantasy to further the generic understanding of unique fantasy subgenres.
