Modern examples from a wide range of media and genres-including Philip Pullman's His Dark Materials and the novels of Helen Oyeyemi, the Rocky Horror Picture Show and Hayao Miyazaki's Spirited Away , and the role-playing games Dungeons and Dragons and Warhammer 40K- are brought alongside episodes from ancient myth, important moments from history, and more. All together, these multifaceted studies add to our understanding of how science fiction and fantasy form important areas of classical reception, not only transmitting but also transmuting images of antiquity. The volume concludes with an inspiring personal reflection from the New York Times-bestselling author of speculative fiction, Catherynne M. Valente, offering her perspective on the limitless potential of the classical world to resonate with experience today."--$cProvided by publisher. 410 0$aBloomsbury studies in classical reception. 606 $aScience fiction$xClassical influences 606 $aClassical literature$xInfluence 615 0$aScience fiction$xClassical influences. 615 0$aClassical literature$xInfluence. 676 $a809.3/8762 702 $aRogers$b Brett M. 702 $aStevens$b Benjamin Eldon 801 0$bICU/DLC 801 1$bCaBNVSL 801 2$bUkLoBP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910827893003321 996 $aOnce and future antiquities in science fiction and fantasy$94054607 997 $aUNINA
