Dystopia, from the Greek dus and topos "bad place," is a revelatory
genre and concept that has experienced a meteoric rise in
popularity at the start of the twenty-first century. This book
addresses approaches to the study of dystopia from the academic
fields of theology and religious studies. Following a co-written
chapter where Scott Donahue-Martens and Brandon Simonson argue that
dystopia can be understood as demythologized apocalyptic, ten
unique contributions each engage a work of popular culture, such as
a book, movie, or television show. Topics across chapters range
from the critical function of dystopia, social location and
identity, violence, apocalypse and the end of everything,
sacrifice, catharsis, and dystopian existentialism. This volume
responds to the need for theological and religious reflection on
dystopia in a world increasingly threatened by climate change,
pandemics, and global war.
