#2 I read that as RPG 'Portions' and thought, 'yeah, that does look a little like an RPG round', and then reread and now feel like an idiot.
theAmberTrap
I had to go back and reread that one because I just saw RPG and thought rocket-propelled grenade because that bottle was obviously a round.

I thought RPG potion and imagined some 16th century knight lobbing that thing over a wall to have it shoot off and explode.

“Science Fiction was invented by a woman.” Ok but like, who fucking cares? Why does everything have to be about gender?
JupitersWitch
Great question. Why was is a "guy thing" for so long? Women weren't real nerds or geeks and were only fans to show off.
Shovi
Because mah feminism... and apparently people are saying she didn't invent it, there were SF stories before that.

I dont know but that concept is dumb. Cheap looking covers can often mean cheap, vague, poorly written books.

You don't think there's ever been 2 books written ever that could have similar/the same description applied to them?
sicca3
Well the first "sci-fi" novel was written by a norwegian man i the 1700th, it's about a guy that travels to 7 different world underground.
PerseusofPeregrin
Who's the woman or girl they're claiming invented sci-fi?
sicca3
It was banned because he in one of the worlds had put the roles of the sexes upside down.
sicca3
It's called "Nils Klims underjordiske reise" he markedet it as a traveling novel.

mac821
I get the whole "women deserve more recognition in nerd culture" but a woman most certainly did not invent scifi. Give credit ONLY where due
fencer1964
Fine. First modern SF novel. Happy?
UsernameTheMusical
Frankenstein is often considered to be the first science fiction novel, though?
mac821
By some, maybe. But Kepler is considered by many scientists themselves to be the first sci-fi author.
kindakinda
Frankenstein.

Somnium.

I said the same above. History is terribly inconvenient when you have an agenda.

THANK YOU. Fucking Romans did it first, as usual.

flavivsaetivs
Having read Frankenstein I can see how it would classify as Sci-FI but isn't it more a social commentary/psychological story?
brambleramble
Or neither based on other definitions. In literary research, the first isn't as important as the most influential when deciding the start.
flavivsaetivs
Frankenstein influenced the Horror Genre, not Science Fiction, for the most part.
AlkeneThiol
I would put Gullivers Travels as earlier and equally influential in the genre at least. Though after looking it up pedants consider it...
AlkeneThiol
..."proto-science fiction." Which is silly, imo
flavivsaetivs
Really more so works like 20,000 leagues under the Sea, Invisible Man, War of the Worlds, etc. were far more influential than Frankenstein.
brambleramble
I completely agree with both of these statements. pulp fiction in general heavily influence science fiction
Lifk
Sci fi was not invent by a woman. I believe that E. Allan Poe and Jule Verne were man.
blackoutdigital
I thought it was Mary trying to explain that virgin thing to Joseph, and look how much fanfic it made
AWeirdnamethatithoughtwasalreadytaken
Well many regard Lucian from 2AD as creating the first work of Science Fiction.
fencer1964
That’s “fantasy.” You can’t have science fiction if you don’t have science.
AWeirdnamethatithoughtwasalreadytaken
It has the main cast travelling to different planets and joining in a war with aliens. It is regarded as the first science fiction text.
dawniefluff
Frankenstein was published in 1818, Poe's first work was 1827, Verne was born 1828.
Lifk
Well i can hear that but there is also gilgamesh 1800 before JC also. Maybe its more semantic than purely official.
UsernameTheMusical
The Epic of Gilgamesh isn't science fiction, everything that occurs is because of divinity, not science.
Lifk
Since fantasy and fantastic are also include in the wild definition of science fiction it is still about semantic and open to debate.
UsernameTheMusical
Surely "it contains science" is the most democratic definition of sci-fi? And no, I don't consider Star Wars sci-fi.

DrYoloMcSwagmasterIIIEsq
So all pre-19th century sci-fi is just not considered sci-fi in this definition?
kindakinda
Give solid examples and we'll talk. It has to be science + fiction, speculative fiction based on science. Other works may have some...
spectheintro
Kepler's Somnium. Written between 1620-1630. Also, Bacon's "The New Atlantis."
slydragoon
The Hindu work, Ramayana, from (at least) 6th century, features flying vehicles that can go to space, under water, and destroy cities.
kindakinda
But where is the science in that story? There's a difference between sci-fi and fantasy.
kindakinda
...characteristics of sci-fi, but "Frankenstein" was solidly in the science/speculation/sci-fi-as-we-know-it-today area in 1818.
kindakinda
And used the common sci-fi trope of a scientific invention gone wrong/misused and threatening man.
