Description
Key Features
Examines motherless creations including Frankenstein's creature, automata, androids, and golems across four major literary traditions before 1890.
Traces how pseudoscientific beliefs about human reproduction influenced literary fantasies of generating life without women.
Analyses how physicians, inventors, and authors imagined creating artificial life through manufactured means rather than biological birth.
Explores the cultural and scientific contexts that shaped depictions of Pygmalion's statue, homunculi, and steam men in speculative fiction.
Published by Routledge as part of the Studies in Speculative Fiction series, offering rigorous academic treatment of artificial life in historical literature.
