With diverse contributions from scholars in English literature,
psychology, and film and television studies, this collection of
essays contextualizes Fringe as a postmodern investigation into
what makes us human, and as an examination of how technology
invariably transforms our humanity. The essays provide a
provocative meditation on how a stellar example of science fiction
television comments on the state of personal identity in a 21st
century society dependent on technology that both enlivens and
threatens the individual. In compiling this collection, the editors
sought material as multifaceted as the series itself, devoting
sections to specific areas of interest explored by both the writers
of Fringe and the writers of the essays: humanity, duality, genre,
and viewership. Taken together, the section headings serve as a map
to the many thematic readings the editors and contributors apply to
Fringe.
