The fields of science fiction and fantasy art need to be examined thoroughly and systematically. This book provides such an examination. The volume offers both surveys of the entire history of these traditions and focused examinations of particular genres and artists. In contrast to existing studies of science fiction and fantasy art, this book argues that science fiction and fantasy art needs to be explored within different contexts, such as literary history, art history, and cultural history, and by following different vectors, such as art displaying recurring iconic images and art related to particular subgenres. The volume's contributors include several internationally recognized and award-winning science fiction writers and scholars.
