  • Transmodern Reconfigurations of Territoriality
    societies Article Transmodern Reconfigurations of Territoriality, Defense, and Cultural Awareness in Ken MacLeod’s Cosmonaut Keep Jessica Aliaga-Lavrijsen Centro Universitario de la Defensa Zaragoza, Zaragoza 50090, Spain; [email protected] Received: 5 September 2018; Accepted: 17 October 2018; Published: 19 October 2018 Abstract: This paper focuses on the science fiction (SF) novel Cosmonaut Keep (2000)—first in the trilogy Engines of Light, which also includes Dark Light (2001) and Engines of Light (2002)—by the Scottish writer Ken MacLeod, and analyzes from a transmodern perspective some future warfare aspects related to forthcoming technological development, possible reconfigurations of territoriality in an expanding cluster of civilizations travelling and trading across distant solar systems, expanded cultural awareness, and space ecoconsciousness. It is my argument that MacLeod’s novel brings Transmodernism, which is characterized by a “planetary vision” in which human beings sense that we are interdependent, vulnerable, and responsible, into the future. Hereby, MacLeod’s work expands the original conceptualization of the term “Transmodernism” as defined by Rodríguez Magda, and explores possible future outcomes, showing a unique awareness of the fact that technological processes are always linked to political and power-related uses. Keywords: cultural awareness; future warfare; globalization; Fifth-Generation War; intergalactic territoriality; planetary civilizations; SF; space ecoconsciousness; speculative fiction; technological development; transmodernism “Where there is no vision, the people perish.” —Proverbs 29:18 “If these are the early days of a better nation there must be hope, and a hope of peace is as good as any, and far better than a hollow hoarding greed or the dry lies of an aweless god.” —Graydon Saunders 1.

  • Wyrmtongue, the Newsletter for the Imperial College Science Fiction and Fantasy Society (ICSF)
    Welcome Hi everybody! Thanks for picking up this issue of Wyrmtongue, the newsletter for the Imperial College Science Fiction and Fantasy society (ICSF). Here you can find out about the society, and what will be going on this term and throughout the year. As ICSF editor, I'll also be putting together fanzines featuring the creative writing of the society's budding authors | so please get in touch if you'd like to be one of them! Looking forward to seeing you around the library soon! { Katherine Read, Editor Captain's Log Hello everyone, To all the freshers, congratulations on making it to Imperial and welcome to ICSF. To everyone else, congratulations on making it back! I hope you all had a wonderful summer and are feeling refreshed and ready for an action-packed year of lectures, labs and other things you may wish to hide from occasionally. The good news is, the library exists, with a bunch of fun (at least, we think so) people there watching something, having daft discussions and generally whiling away time until we have to face the real world again. Newcomers are always welcome! Obviously, a library wouldn't be a library without also having some books. In fact, we have over 9000 of them (!), along with about 2000 DVDs and a fair few comics, graphic novels and audio books. All these are available for our members to take out, and if an item you want is somehow not already included in our ridiculously large collection, you can always request it. Good luck trying to consume it all in your time here.
