Lovecraft","authors":"Anthony Camara","doi":"10.1353/sfs.2024.a931151","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1353/sfs.2024.a931151","url":null,"abstract":"ABSTRACT: This article explores the significance of higher-dimensional and Non-Euclidean geometries in the weird horror fiction of H.P. Lovecraft, particularly in \"The Dreams in the Witch House\" (1933) and \"From Beyond\" (1934). Charting a new direction for studies of geometry in Lovecraft's fiction, this article argues that said tales speculate on the role higher dimensions play in the qualities, capacities, and tendencies of physical matter, all the while emphasizing the need for topological investigations that examine the interrelations of time, space, and matter in Lovecraft's weird cosmos. The first part of the paper reviews the suite of mathematical and scientific discoveries informing Lovecraft's treatment of higher-dimensional and Non-Euclidean geometries in his mythos. Focusing on alien artifacts made of unknown chemical elements from higher dimensions, the second part of the paper underscores how matter is a site of onto-epistemological crisis for Lovecraft, owing to the way that it behaves with both lawful regularity and startling unpredictability. The final part of the paper uses the philosophies of Graham Harman and Reza Negarestani—two contemporary thinkers explicitly influenced by Lovecraft—to bring the weird writer's own brand of speculative, higher-dimensional (hyper-)materialism into relief, in ways that not only expose the fundamental rifts in matter but also those tensions that characterize Lovecraft's intellect itself.","PeriodicalId":517674,"journal":{"name":"Science Fiction Studies","volume":"22 7","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141711316","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

I will discuss the topic from three aspects: extraterrestrial intelligence's role as both metaphorical and literal mirrors in Liu's short stories; various alien worldviews and existential states that derive their conflicting diversity from the scientific and humanistic divide in the literary tradition of Chinese science fiction; aliens that represent either the scientistic outlook or the pitfalls of scientific and technological progress. While the values and outlooks of alien civilizations in Remembrance of Earth's Past trilogy are uniformly based on a reductive and unambiguous set of axioms, Liu's short stories argue for the multiplicity and relativism of existential values and purposes of life in the universe not only by portraying diversity, but by juxtaposing opposites, abolishing binaries, and questioning absolute positions. I argue that Liu's short stories concerning extraterrestrial intelligence convey a message about the plurality and relativism of worldviews and existential values through embracing the coexistence of the antithetical stances of humanism and science, disputing the absolute positions of anthropocentrism and scientism, and dissolving the binary of the human self and the nonhuman other.","PeriodicalId":517674,"journal":{"name":"Science Fiction Studies","volume":"59 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141711813","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Readers encounter a seemingly quintessential techno-Orientalist construct when they meet the book's protagonist, Fumiko. But their attention is soon redirected to a corporate entity whose predatory capitalist practices make it the new, menacing techno-Orientalist figure in the plot. The novel intervenes in discourses of techno-Orientalism by emphasizing how exploitative economic power dynamics are not limited to actors such as individuals or nation-states, as they are typically understood, but include corporate entities. This article thus contends that more precision is necessary when defining techno-Orientalist constructs and encourages readers to expand their perspectives as they immerse themselves in the Asian American science fictional world.","PeriodicalId":517674,"journal":{"name":"Science Fiction Studies","volume":"419 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141707754","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
