Ray Bradbury

Martin Harry Greenberg

4.9/5 (29394 ratings)

Description:The beautifully crafted emotion-laden stories of Ray Bradbury have touched the hearts and minds of millions of people all over the world. The Martian Chronicles (often taken as a novel but actually twenty- six linked stories characterized by a strong structural unity) are among the most widely read and admired science fiction stories of all time. His classic novel Fahrenheit 451, which Donald Watt in this book calls "the only major symbolic dystopia of our time,' is a brilliant treatment of totaliratianism and those who struggle against it. Despite - or perhaps because of - the surface simplicity of his major works, Ray Bradbury has seldom been studied. This book attempts to place Bradbury has seldom been studied. This book attempts to place Bradbury in perspective both as a writer and in terms of his place in the history of science fiction. The latter point is an important one because Bradbury is not considered a "science fiction writer" by many of his contemporaries and critics. More often than not, he has been misunderstood, especially in regard to his attitudes toward science and "progress." The controversy surrounding Ray Bradbury cannot obscure his success as a writer, however. His books have sold millions of copies in paper back and have remained in print for decades. The expert contributors to this volume consider the charge that Bradbury is really an anti-scientific writer, fearful of technology and its effects. A number of themes are threatened in depth- Bradbury's attitudes towards science and technology, his alleged enchantment with the past, his poetic use of imaginary, and religious symbolism in his work. In addition, Edward J. Gallagher analyses he thematic structure of The Martain Chronicles, Gary K. Wolfe probes the importance of the frontier myth in Bradbury and the Gothic tradition-PublisherWe have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
