A partir de uma leitura do romance Salmo para um robô peregrino (2022), de Becky Chambers, o presente trabalho busca refletir sobre a capacidade da ficção científica de criar outras formas de habitar o mundo e como essa literatura pode nos auxiliar a pensar alternativas para vivermos – e morrermos – melhor neste momento marcado por crises. Para desenvolver tal reflexão, o estudo será pautado pela discussão de Donna Haraway (2016) sobre SF e irá explorar as questões de vulnerabilidade de Judith Butler (2019; 2021), de ficção como bolsa de Ursula Le Guin (1989) e a discussão sobre o cuidado, como desenvolvida por Maria Puig de la Bellacasa (2012; 2017), a fim de entender como o gênero da ficção científica pode nos ajudar a permanecer com o problema e nos auxiliar a pensar em maneiras mais harmônicas, inclusivas e cuidadosas de habitar o mundo.

While the Anthropocene has traditionally been associated with apocalyptic images, the notion of the good Anthropocene, widely criticized since its origin, has emerged as its utopian counterpart. In his novel The Ministry for the Future (2020), Kim Stanley Robinson explicitly uses the name “good Anthropocene” to refer to the state of the world at the end of the story, more sustainable and equitable. This article examines the utopian and dystopian connotations of the (good) Anthropocene and analyzes how Robinson utilizes the term in his narrative; in particular, it focuses on his employment of narrative structure to convey the multiplicity of the Anthropocene, his preoccupation with discerning the socio-cultural origins of the epoch and his intention of conveying the positive future of the story as achievable through active hope and collaboration.

I suggest in this essay that affiliated cultural work can be found in the residual corners of the Western imaginary, such as Ireland, especially as Irish culture and politics has confronted the onslaught of disciplinary neoliberalism and xenophobic fascism in a series of rapid turns in the last two decades. From within a diverse project of tracking and tracing Irish science fictionality, I turn my attention to Mike McCormac´s Notes from a Coma (2005). Clearly a work of sf, but one contesting the Irish literary heritage and Irish society as well as the boundaries of utopian form, the book is not so much a utopian novel as much as it is a fictive meditation on the reality and the process of the utopian impulse.

Ewa Lukaszyk
The paper presents a reading of Helen Macdonald's non-fiction book H Is for Hawk, that focuses on the adoption of the temporal perspective of a predator (the instantaneousness of the attack and capture of the prey) instead of the typically human way of addressing the temporality spreading over a past, a present, and a future (memory, mourning, anxiety). Rethinking the inherited cultural practice of keeping and taming goshawks, the British writer narrates the process of mental merging with the female goshawk she trains. Through her engagement as an austringer (keeper of hawks), she also questions such categories as gender, class, and nationality. In parallel to her own experience, she reads the personal story of yet another transgressive austringer, the homosexual author T. H. White. This double line of vital/textual experience deconstructs the dominant cultural stance of heterosexual masculinity and sketches a peculiar queertopia.
本文介绍了海伦·麦克唐纳(Helen Macdonald)的非虚构作品《H是鹰》(H Is for Hawk)，这本书的重点是采用捕食者的时间视角(攻击和捕获猎物的即时性)，而不是用典型的人类方式来处理跨越过去、现在和未来的时间性(记忆、哀悼、焦虑)。这位英国作家重新思考了传统的饲养和驯服苍鹰的文化习俗，讲述了与她所训练的雌苍鹰精神融合的过程。通过作为一名奥斯丁格(老鹰的守护者)，她也对性别、阶级和国籍等类别提出了质疑。除了自己的经历，她还阅读了另一位同性恋作家t.h.怀特(t.h. White)的个人故事。这条生命/文本经验的双线解构了异性恋男性气概的主导文化立场，描绘了一个奇特的酷儿乌托邦。

Este artigo é resultado de minha pesquisa de doutorado cujo corpus foi a trilogia MaddAddam, de Margaret Atwood. Para esta proposta, foco minha análise sobre o terceiro romance da coletânea, também intitulado MaddAddam, em que nos é apresentado o desfecho dos enredos dos romances anteriores, a saber, Oryx and Crake (2003) e The year of the flood (2009). Em MaddAddam, publicado em 2013, Atwood especula um futuro em que a contação de histórias e a aliança entre seres humanos e não humanos consistem em estratégias de sobrevivência das espécies em um cenário pós-apocalítico. Para respaldar algumas das minhas reflexões, recorrerei às humanidades ambientais, sobretudo à ecocrítica, perspectiva teórica que me permite vislumbrar, dentre outras questões, como a espécie humana se reconfigura para garantir sua sobrevivência.
这篇文章是我的博士研究的结果，其语料库是玛格丽特·阿特伍德的《玛达姆三部曲》。为此，我将重点分析该系列的第三部小说，也叫《MaddAddam》，在这部小说中，我们展示了前两部小说《Oryx and Crake》(2003)和《The year of The flood》(2009)的情节结局。在2013年出版的《MaddAddam》一书中，阿特伍德推测，在后世界末日的背景下，讲故事和人类与非人类之间的联盟将包括物种的生存策略。为了支持我的一些思考，我将求助于环境人文学科，特别是生态批评，这是一种理论视角，让我瞥见，在其他问题中，人类物种如何重新配置自己，以确保其生存。

Considerando a prática política dos estudos queer, o presente trabalho investiga como dois livros de memórias de Mattilda Bernstein Sycamore permitem compreender uma “temporalidade de retidão” e suas formas de morte para pessoas LGBTQIAPN+. Centrando-se principalmente nos apontamentos de José Esteban Muñoz (2019), Sara Ahmed (2006) e Jack Halberstam (2005), uma leitura crítica das obras é realizada para sublinhar a reprodução de formas paradigmáticas de vida que produzem algumas orientações de vida como possíveis e corretas e outras como problemas a evitar. Ao final, argumenta-se que os escritos de Sycamore contestam e interrogam a estrutura presente e oferecem questionamentos para novos movimentos políticos para dissidentes de gênero e sexualidade.

The conflict between humans and creatures considered non-humans is a major part of a particular trend in twenty-first-century dystopian novels written by women published in English. In these novels, storytelling is used to push on the boundaries of what being human means and therefore the ways humans live. The future in these dystopian scenarios is filled with spaces for resistance, community values and proposals for new ways of living. But to carve out these new worlds, a discussion on what is human and what is not precedes to show that any new form society may take needs to challenge the assumptions of our present day world. In the selected novels, that include Ursula Le Guin’s The Telling, Jeanette Winterson’s The Stone Gods, and Margaret Atwood’s MaddAddam, when those initially considered non-humans tell stories, they are perceived as humans. However, instead of integrating the previous human culture and reproducing its practices, these new humans propose other forms of humanity with other social arrangements, beliefs, gender configurations, and culture. They point to how humanity is a plural and open concept, not a restrictive ideal, and on the ways we can envision possible futures once a more plural meaning of the word human prevails. Throughout the article I discuss briefly the traditional humanist view on humanity, how it appears on dystopian fiction and how it is challenged, the many ways these ideas are present in the corpus selected and how they are explored and blurred. Finally, I divide the selected novels into three groups according to how the meaning of storytelling in the text challenges the notion of human.

Taking into account Rita Felski’s (1995) discussion on stereotypical representations of women in modernity and the New Woman movement, in this paper we analyse George Egerton’s short story “The Regeneration of Two” (1894) from the perspective of Donna Haraway’s cyborg imagery and the concept of cyborg writing. We demonstrate that “The Regeneration of Two” dialogues with Haraway’s proposition of a cyborg writing as it opposes an oppressive patriarchal system with the creation of a women’s community. To do so, we explore two main aspects of cyborg imagery present in the short story: the fractured identities and the community of political kinship, resulting in a subversive “cyborgian epiphany.” This epiphany informs Egerton’s progressive and intersectional representation of gender relations and of women’s writing part and parcel of the late 19th-century radical feminist New Woman movement.

A literatura especulativa é um gênero que cresce de forma acelerada na contemporaneidade. Sua popularidade se deve à inserção de novas perspectivas e à promoção da ascensão de vozes nunca antes consideradas na tradição literária. Esse fenômeno gerou uma série de intricadas manifestações da arte literária, como é o caso da utopia preta e das narrativas de futuros pretos do movimento afrofuturista. O presente artigo tem como objetivo analisar as perspectivas literárias especulativas ideais produzidas e/ou protagonizadas pelo povo preto. Desse modo, propomos um estudo analítico das configurações da utopia afrofuturista no filme Pantera Negra (2018), de Ryan Coogler, e do conto “Pele de Emergência” (2021), de N. K Jemisin. Para tal, buscamos aporte nas obras e contribuições teóricas de Zygmunt Bauman (2000), Marilena Chauí (2008), Gregory Claeys (2013), David Harvey (2008), Renato Noguera (2012), André Prévost (2015), Raymond Williams (1978), Ytasha L.
