From Mary Shelley through to Octavia Butler, Anglophone science fiction has repeatedly speculated about vegetarian variants of utopian and dystopian futures. Yet, the topic is only rarely and often very inadequately addressed in the relevant secondary literature. Bulleids Vegetarianism and Science Fiction: A History of Utopian Animal Ethics more than fills the gap. It will be a must for all serious scholars of the genre. Andrew Milner, co-author of Science Fiction and Climate Change: A Sociological Approach. To imagine alternative worlds allows a fiction writer to re-imagine our relationships with the other animals. Numerous novels envision an end to our tawdry and selfish human-centered attitudes. How marvelous that Joshua Bulleid examines, with care and alertness, this creative refashioning of ethical commitments. Carol J. Adams, author of The Sexual Politics of Meat: A Feminist-Vegetarian Critical Theory. Vegetarianism and Science Fiction: A History of Utopian Animal Ethics examines how vegetarian ideals promoted within science fiction and utopian literature have had a real-world impact on the awareness and spread of vegetarianism and animal advocacy. Author Joshua Bulleid explores how the genres engagements have been altered to reflect changes in ethical and environmental philosophy from the early-nineteenth century to the present day, through an examination of the works of major science fiction authors, including Mary Shelley, H. G. Wells, Arthur C. Clarke, Philip K. Dick, Ursula K. Le Guin, Ernest Callenbach, Marge Piercy, Octavia E. Butler, Kim Stanley Robinson and Margaret Atwood within their evolving social contexts. Joshua Bulleid is an independent early career researcher from Melbourne, Australia. His articles on vegetarianism and animal ethics have appeared in Science Fiction Studies and Foundation, as well as the Palgrave Macmillan collection Ethical Futures and Global Science Fiction (2020) and The Edinburgh Companion to Vegan Literary Studies (2022). He also hosts the Terry Pratchett podcast Unseen Academicals. 001482301 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 001482301 650_6 $$aVégétarisme dans la littérature. 001482301 650_6 $$aUtopies dans la littérature. 001482301 650_0 $$aScience fiction$$xHistory and criticism.$$0(DLC)sh2015002175 001482301 650_0 $$aVegetarianism in literature. 001482301 650_0 $$aUtopias in literature. 001482301 655_7 $$aCriticism, interpretation, etc.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01411635 001482301 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001482301 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aBULLEID, JOSHUA.$$tVEGETARIANISM AND SCIENCE FICTION.$$d[Place of publication not identified] : PALGRAVE MACMILLAN, 2023$$z303138346X$$w(OCoLC)1382624788 001482301 830_0 $$aPalgrave studies in animals and literature. 001482301 852__ $$bebk 001482301 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-031-38347-2$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001482301 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1482301$$pGLOBAL_SET 001482301 980__ $$aBIB 001482301 980__ $$aEBOOK 001482301 982__ $$aEbook 001482301 983__ $$aOnline 001482301 994__ $$a92$$bISE
