- W36620351 abstract "Even as the New World was being settled, seventeenth-century Europeans did not desist from speculating on imaginary voyages to other parts of the universe. Indeed, the excitement kindled by the descriptions of conquests and journeys in earlier centuries, together with the impact of new discoveries in the heavens, breathed life into a fictional literature eager to explore interplanetary space. Several works, covering a wide range of genres and topics, were devoted to such explorations, from essays in social and political criticism, such as those by Francis Godwin and Cyrano de Bergerac,1 to important treatises in philosophy and astronomy, of which texts by Johannes Kepler and Athanasius Kircher are striking examples.2 The idea of travel beyond Earth, of course, had been present in Western literature since antiquity. In addition to works devoted in toto to such voyages, detailed journeys interspersed texts dealing with other matters — for example Scipio’s dream by Cicero." @default.
