Wed Apr 17 13:24:00 GMT 2024






The latest issue of /EXTRAPOLATION /is now available online.
Liverpool University Press is pleased to inform you of the latest content in /EXTRAPOLATION <https://www.liverpooluniversitypress.co.uk/journal/extr>, /the first journal to publish academic work on science fiction and fantasy. It continues to be a leading, peer-reviewed, international journal in that specialized genre in the literature of popular culture. 65.1 of <https://liverpooluniversitypress.co.uk/toc/extr/65/1>/Extrapolation <https://liverpooluniversitypress.co.uk/toc/extr/65/1>/ features a special section of four papers from the Current Research in Speculative Fiction conference (CRSF). The issue begins with David Tierney’s “‘The Poetry of a Dingo’s Bite’: Communication within Nonhuman Animal Play in Ursula K. Le Guin’s ‘“The Author of the Acacia Seeds” and Other Extracts from the /Journal of the Association of Thereolinguistics’ /and Laura Jean McKay’s The Animals in that Country,” an examination of a lesser-known work by one of the genre’s most important writers and an Arthur C. Clarke Award-winning novel from Australia which is rapidly headed for the canon. Eamon Reid offers a political reading of one of the most ambitious sf television series before the streaming era, in “Contractual Gravities: Investigating Babylon 5’s Nonmodern Liberalism.” Danny Steur brings home to us how sf ranges across media in “Inhuman Kinship at Insensible Depths: Relating to the Non-Relational in Drexciyan Afrofuturism,” looking at the music of Drexciya, Rivers Solomon’s The Deep, and the paintings of Ellen Gallagher. Finally, Yuheng Ko, in “Beyond the Myth of Chinese Ideograms: Linguistic Utopianism and the Technicality of Chinese as the Linguistic Other,” examines a debate around readings of Ted Chiang’s short story “Story of Your Life” (1998). We round out the issue with Jeffrey Andrew Weinstock’s “Love Letters From the Future: The Salvage Sublime,” exploring Evan Calder Williams’s concept of “salvagepunk.”
