Parallel Prophecies:

Peter J. Bowler

Science fiction and popular science writing sometimes intersect—authors have written in both genres, and magazines have published their writing side by side. Producing “hard” science fiction depends on getting the known science right and ensuring that predictions seem plausible. There have even been claims that science fiction should be used to make science itself accessible to a wider public. This article uses case studies from mid-twentieth-century Britain to illustrate the range of attitudes adopted by authors and publishers who sought to associate the two genres and to probe the notion of “plausibility” in this context.

平行预言:

科幻小说和科普写作有时是交叉的——作者用这两种体裁写作,杂志也同时出版他们的作品。制作“硬”科幻小说取决于让已知的科学正确并确保预测似乎是合理的。甚至有人声称应该使用科幻小说来让更广泛的公众了解科学本身。本文使用 20 世纪中叶英国的案例研究来说明作者和出版商所采取的态度范围,他们试图将这两种类型联系起来,并在这种情况下探讨“合理性”的概念。
