ENG 173 - Fictional Futures (Cornerstone Seminar)Three Credits Periodically or As Needed
We are most familiar with stories set in the past, and for good reason: tales set in the future are rarer and seem to follow different rules. In this course, we will look at stories that envision the future and study how they function. We will read novels and watch films for their predictions about the future as well as what they tell us about our present. Our texts will include works of science fiction (sci-fi), speculative fiction, climate fiction (cli-fi), and Afrofuturism.
