This book provides a series of new addresses to the enduring
problem of how to categorize the Fantastic. The approach taken is
through the lens of spatiality; the Fantastic gives us new worlds,
although of course these are refractions of worlds already in
being. In place of 'real' spaces (whatever they might be), the
Fantastic gives us imaginary spaces, although within those spaces
historical and cultural conflicts are played out, albeit in forms
that stretch our understanding of everyday location, and our usual
interpretations of cause and effect. Many authors are addressed
here, from a variety of different geographical and national
traditions, thus demonstrating how the Fantastic - as a mode, a
genre, a way of thinking, imagining and writing - continually
traverses borders and boundaries. We hope to move the ongoing
debate about the Fantastic forward in a scholarly as well as an
engaging way.
