Criticism about H. G. Wells

Filling the Void: Verne, Wells, and Lem
http://JV.Gilead.org.il/sfs/rose.art.html: “Concerned with the human in relation to the non-human, SF could only emerge in thecontext of a culture that articulates crucial aspects of its experience in those terms.Moreover, because it represents a secular transformation of religious concerns, SF couldonly emerge in a context in which the claims of traditional religion were still felt but inwhich belief was at best problematic.”; Contains: Criticism; Author: Mark Rose; From: Science-Fiction Studies Vol. 8 no. 24; p. 121-142; July 1981; Keywords:
