Science fiction was being written throughout the seventeenth and
eighteenth centuries, but it underwent a rapid expansion of
cultural dissemination and popularity at the end of the nineteenth
and beginning of the twentieth century. This Element explores the
ways this explosion in interest in 'scientific romance', that
informs today's global science fiction culture, manifests the
specific historical exigences of the revolutions in publishing and
distribution technology. H. G. Wells, Jules Verne and other science
fiction writers embody in their art the advances in material
culture that mobilize, reproduce and distribute with new rapidity,
determining the cultural logic of twentieth-century science fiction
in the process.
