Abstract: | The excitement of the science fiction writers of the late fifties into the sixties was that of a time when just about anything seemed possible. New routes of human experience were mapped, bypassing people’s preconceptions. However, in time, this process was followed by a decline of interest in space and concerns moved from outer to inner space, from technology mad optimism to planet-related pessimism. The Golden Age of galaxy- spanning future histories faded into the more cynical and skeptical New Wave and, later, cyberpunk. |
