Description

This Routledge publication expands upon existing scholarship regarding gender in science fiction by introducing a new perspective on age. While age is often viewed solely as a social construction, this book argues that acknowledging aged bodies changes how readers interpret both age and the speculative fiction genre. By employing the biopsychosocial model from contemporary clinical psychology, the volume treats age as a vital and frequently neglected subject in literary studies. The text provides a method to view age and gender as an embodied synthesis of physicality, psychology, and social factors. This approach offers a way to move beyond simple vocabulary and apply a structured method to the study of speculative fiction and culture.
