Assignment 1
#By setting stories on other planets or using other races, the author is often holding a mirror up to our society or to human psychology. What is Asimov saying about us in “Nightfall”? (Stefan D'Aversa, Zachary Kain)
#Science fiction stories often have to deliver a lot of information to the reader, but don't want to deliver it in a tedious way (i.e. as a dry lecture). Describe and illustrate the techniques used to do this in four of the assigned readings.
#Is "Helen O'Loy" a sexist story? Be sure to explain any terms you might use, especialy especially the term "sexist". (Jamie Stratton, Jeff Jewitt, Geoff Bowes)#Wildcard! TBA.
