This extensive volume, spanning a wide range of perspectives and artistic expressions, critically examines the ways in which gender and genre intersect in SF, particularly through the lens of speculative art created by women and LGBTQ+ artists.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBy drawing upon established fields of gender studies and science fiction studies, as well as emerging ideas from researchers in various media, this global volume fosters interdisciplinary inquiry. Together, these chapters challenge traditional generic boundaries, offer fresh approaches to familiar texts, reclaim lost artists, introduce new ones, connect the revival of old hate-based politics with the increasing visibility of imagined futures for all, and demonstrate how SF stories about new gender relations inspire innovative models of artistic, technoscientific, and political practice.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe book is organized into five compelling conversations that serve as focal points for discussions on gender and SF in the present day. These conversations revolve around the history of gender and genre, theoretical frameworks, subjectivities, media and transmedialities, and transtemporalities. Emerging and established scholars from diverse fields of media, literature, and cultural studies engage in lively discussions on a wide array of topics, including eco-criticism, animal studies, cyborg and posthumanist theory, masculinity, critical race studies, Indigenous futurisms, Black girlhood, and gaming.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis comprehensive resource is an invaluable tool for students and scholars engaged in the study of gender, sexuality, and\/or science fiction. It provides a rich and multifaceted exploration of the complex interplay between these disciplines, offering insights and perspectives that will deepen understanding and appreciation of the genre. The Routledge Companion to Gender and Science Fiction is a testament to the power of interdisciplinary inquiry and the importance of recognizing and celebrating the diverse voices and experiences within SF.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 246 x 174 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780367537012\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shulph Ink","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44105177759994,"sku":"9780367537012","price":241.56,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/noImage_1_9ec8987e-891c-4fd6-b344-7945d5468bf1.jpg?v=1676565399","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/the-routledge-companion-to-gender-and-science-fiction-9780367537012","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
