Start reading today and explore ideas, insights, and experiences that stay with you.
Overview: Im dritten Band seiner Reihe entfaltet Laßwitz-Preisträger Hans Frey das widersprüchliche Panorama der SF in der jungen Bundesrepublik (1945-1968). Wie gewohnt bettet er plausibel, sachkundig und spannend-unterhaltsam den Neustart des Genres in den ebenso fortschrittsgläubigen wie angstbesetzten Zeitgeist ein. Die Transformation des alten deutschen Zukunftsromans, die Fandom-Entstehung, der starke angloamerikanische Einfluss und sich verändernde Medien gaben der West-SF eine vitale Dynamik. Vertieft wird das Bild durch eine Fülle wiederentdeckter SF-Originaltexte und zahlreiche Portraits der »Macher«. Oft trashig, aber auch anspruchsvoll verwandelte die zeitgenössische SF das Atomthema, den Kalten Krieg, die beginnende Weltraumfahrt u.v.a.m. in wirkmächtige Mythen der Moderne. Heftserien wie UTOPIA, TERRA und PERRY RHODAN, wichtige Verlage und SF-Neuland stehen neben der SF-affinen Mainstreamliteratur. Viele seltene Abbildungen und ein ausführliches Literatur- und Stichwortverzeichnis ergänzen das Werk. OPTIMISMUS UND OVERKILL ist ein wichtiges Literaturkompendium, das erneut begeistert.»Science Fiction ist der zeitgemäße Ausdruck historischen Selbstverständnisses.«— Michael SalewskiPressestimmen zum zweiten Band Aufbruch in den Abgrund:»Als ausführliche, solide recherchierte und kontextualisierte, chronologische Enzyklopädie ist (das Buch) nicht zu überschätzen. (…) Eine Fundgrube!«— TOR online 29.4.2020»Wer das Genre Science Fiction liebt, der wird dieses Buch eh in einem Rutsch verschlingen.«— Westdeutsche Allgemeine Zeitung»Es gibt einen Menschen namens Hans Frey, der 2018 die großartige Studie Fortschritt und Fiasko (…) vorgelegt und diese Leistung nun mit einem noch besseren zweiten Band übertroffen hat: Aufbruch in den Abgrund (…). Das zweite Buch zeigt noch deutlicher als das erste, wie kompliziert der Wurzelknoten war, aus dem die Literatur der Zukunft und der Alternativhistorie zu ihrer heutigen Gestalt heranwuchs.«— Dietmar Dath, Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, 7.5.2020»Dieses Buch zu lesen macht nicht nur schlauer – es macht auch noch Spaß!«— temporamores-newsletter 319/4.4.2020Inhalt:VorwortERSTER TEIL: Neubeginn der westdeutschen SF (1945–1960)ZeitzeichenPersonen, Strukturen, MedienInhalt und FormZWEITER TEIL: Verfestigung, Erneuerung, Expansion (1960–1968)Von der Modernisierung zur InnovationHören und SehenANHANG LiteraturverzeichnisStichwortverzeichnis

Took me a few chapters to get into it, but it was worth it. It held my attention, even if a few things were a little predictable. A solid 4 stars from me.

I was pleasantly surprised. The author did a great job wrapping everything up at the end. No weird plot holes left behind. Would probably read it again at some point.

Took me a few chapters to get into it, but it was worth it. Interesting premise and executed fairly well. Just a few slow chapters here and there. Still a good book.

Really enjoyed this one. The writing style is very engaging. It’s easy to follow but still has a lot of depth. Worth the time and money.
