  • Rewriting Universes: Post-Brexit Futures in Dave Hutchinson’S Fractured Europe Quartet
    humanities Article Rewriting Universes: Post-Brexit Futures in Dave Hutchinson’s Fractured Europe Quartet Hadas Elber-Aviram Department of English, The University of Notre Dame (USA) in England, London SW1Y 4HG, UK; [email protected] Abstract: Recent years have witnessed the emergence of a new strand of British fiction that grapples with the causes and consequences of the United Kingdom’s vote to leave the European Union. Building on Kristian Shaw’s pioneering work in this new literary field, this article shifts the focus from literary fiction to science fiction. It analyzes Dave Hutchinson’s Fractured Europe quartet— comprised of Europe in Autumn (pub. 2014), Europe at Midnight (pub. 2015), Europe in Winter (pub. 2016) and Europe at Dawn (pub. 2018)—as a case study in British science fiction’s response to the recent nationalistic turn in the UK. This article draws on a bespoke interview with Hutchinson and frames its discussion within a range of theories and studies, especially the European hermeneutics of Hans-Georg Gadamer. It argues that the Fractured Europe quartet deploys science fiction topoi to interrogate and criticize the recent rise of English nationalism. It further contends that the Fractured Europe books respond to this nationalistic turn by setting forth an estranged vision of Europe and offering alternative modalities of European identity through the mediation of photography and the redemptive possibilities of cooking. Keywords: speculative fiction; science fiction; utopia; post-utopia; dystopia; Brexit; England; Europe; Dave Hutchinson; Fractured Europe quartet Citation: Elber-Aviram, Hadas. 2021.

Massie reminds us that the French historian Augustin Thierry was not alone when he called Ivanhoe Scott's masterpiece, and added, 'Unless, I say, one can understand the feelings which these [medieval] novels and poems aroused, on cannot begin to measure or evaluate Scott or his influence.' 4.

Rance thus characterizes the way in which the Victorians interpreted the history of some five centuries earlier: 'The Middle Ages in fiction were either absolutely remote from contemporary life, in the sense that modern­ ised heroes and heroines breathed a romantic 'period' atmosphere, or else, more cunningly, the concept of the enduring English-Saxon character, resistant to Norman and Stuart tyranny, endowed readers with the spirit of the free Saxons.' Carlyle and Froude recognized the fact of change, but did not understand the mechanisms of evolution that created Victorian society.

The stakes had been high, the struggle keen ; the edge of passion had been sharpened, and the seeds of enmity sown.

  • Summary This Novel Is About the Adventures of a Young English Gentleman, Rudolf Rassendyll, in the Fictional European Kingdom of Ruritania
    LITTLE THINGS by Julia. A. Carney This is a very beautiful, interesting and simple poem written by Julia. A. Carney. This short poem shows the sensitive views of the poetess to the little things. The poetess tells us the importance of little things. She says that we should not ignore little things. The poetess has observed different blessings of the God. She convinces us by giving a few examples of the objects of nature around us. These things are not useless. Often little things in life indicate great changes. All big bodies are made up of little particles as little drops of water make mighty oceans. Little grains of sand make a vast land. Although the short moments of our life are humble yet they make endless ages. The poetess advises us that we should not take little deeds of kindness as worthless actions. Our small errors can lead us towards the deep valley of sins, in the same way our little acts of kindness and little deeds of love can make us dear in the eyes of our enemies and this world worth living. Summary This novel is about the adventures of a young English gentleman, Rudolf Rassendyll, in the fictional European kingdom of Ruritania. Chapter 1: Rudolf Rassendyll decides to visit Ruritania to watch the coronation of King Rudolf the Fifth in the capital city, Strelsau. Rassendyll makes his way to Zenda, a small town in favour of Duke Michael, the King’s brother. Chapter 2: Rassendyll meets the King’s men, Colonel Sapt and Fritz von Tarlenheim in the forest of Zenda.
