Abstract

The essays starts providing a working definition of science fiction, focusing on the most recent developments and the theoretical frame they are built on:Ref.: (Gunn 2002a) (Gunn 2002a) (Gunn 2002b)(Gunn 2003a)(Gunn 2003b)(Suvin and Canavan 2016)(Scholes and Rabkin 1977). There is a specific focus on the contiguity between the two genres, localizing a more or less precise moment in time when crime fiction and science fiction – both considered in their general features and broadest formulae – seem to develop a deeper contiguity. Approached authors are P. K. Dick and China Miéville.
