Resumo: The Fantasy, according to some theories – such as proposal by, for example, Todorov – has some continuity and consistency, migrating from the medieval perception of the world to the realm of Science. But the question is not so simple, since the elements of these two fields establish a dialogue whose essence cannot be reduced to a plain upgrade / transfer, since both the medieval fantasy and science fiction are not limited to the neutral and empty forms. Therefore the work of Robert Sheckley provides a rich and large reflection on the Fantasy and its political use, because his narrative scenography, with scientific trace and space set design, gives the message an ironic meaning more directly.

Mas a questão não parece ser tão simples, uma vez que os elementos constitutivos dos dois campos estabelecem um diálogo cuja essência não pode ser reduzida à mera atualização/transferência, uma vez que tanto o maravilhoso medieval quanto a Science Fiction não se reduzem à operação de formas neutras, vazias. Assim, a obra de Robert Sheckley oferece para a reflexão sobre o maravilhoso e seu uso político um campo apreciável, pois a cenografia científica e espacial dota a mensagem irônica de um significado mais direto.Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais2010-10-30info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufmg.br/index.php/maaravi/article/view/1405710.17851/1982-3053.4.7.3-10Arquivo Maaravi: Revista Digital de Estudos Judaicos da UFMG; v. 4 n. 7 (2010): Arquivos do exílio: geografias da dispersão; 3-101982-3053reponame:Arquivo Maaravi: Revista Digital de Estudos Judaicos da UFMGinstname:Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais (UFMG)instacron:UFMGporhttps://periodicos.ufmg.br/index.php/maaravi/article/view/14057/11238Miguel, Alcebíades Dinizinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2020-07-20T14:36:51Zoai:periodicos.ufmg.br:article/14057Revistahttp://www.periodicos.letras.ufmg.br/index.php/maaravi/indexPUBhttp://www.periodicos.letras.ufmg.br/index.php/maaravi/oai||lyslei@ufmg.br1982-30531982-3053opendoar:2020-07-20T14:36:51Arquivo Maaravi: Revista Digital de Estudos Judaicos da UFMG - Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais (UFMG)false
