Description

Explore the intersection of age and gender in science fiction through a unique academic lens. This volume from Routledge builds upon existing scholarship regarding gender to investigate the role of age within speculative narratives. Rather than treating age solely as a social construction, this book argues that acknowledging aged bodies changes how readers interpret both age and the science fiction genre. By applying the biopsychosocial model from contemporary clinical psychology, the text provides a new method for studying these themes. It moves beyond the vocabulary of gender to examine age and gender as an embodied synthesis of physicality, psychology, and social factors. This approach addresses a significant gap in current speculative fiction studies, making it a necessary resource for those interested in how the human body and social structures are represented in literature.
