I, Robot by Isaac Asimov

Reviewed by Ted Gioia. The very word “robot” came from science fiction—it first appeared in. By Karel Čapek from 1921. As so often in sci-fi,. The concept revealed more about the present-day world of the author than the. Future. The impact of industrialization and assembly line techniques on. Society was a hot topic in the 1920s, and Čapek obsessed on a factory making. 8220;artifical people” (or “robots” as he called them), just as Aldous Huxley would. Have gone from being the.

Notes on Conceptual Fiction. Is it possible that the idea of realism as a guiding principle for. Fiction is itself unrealistic? After all, there are no Newtonian laws in. Stories—an apple can just as easily fly upward from a tree as drop. To the ground. Characters can ride a magic carpet as easily as. Walk Any restrictions are imposed by the author, not by any. External reality, however defined. The first storytellers understood this intuitively. That is why myths,. Reality, rather than defers to it.
