Description
Summary:Alexander Bogdanov’s science fiction novels are built on confrontations of two worlds, when each of them tells something of particular ethos, capacity of apprehending the world and state of knowledge. Political, cultural, and epistemological revolutions in his stories are made of this miwing of worlds. We will see how the author builds with his fiction an enriching framework for considering the challenges of learning and passing of knowledge, first by representing different learning situations and by choosing the learner as his model addressee. His primal didactical ambition, shown by narrative structures typical of philosophical stories, clashes with his empiriomonistic assumption which imposes strong empirical constraints to the transmission of knowledge. Through these thought experiments, he shows the limits of the didactical possibilities of a literary text and of a narrative in general. By doing this, he underlines the didactical and epistemological challenges of science fiction and, at the same time, foretalks the limits of its potential action. He proposes a metapoetic of a literature in which relation to language is always wavering between a scientifical and a literary approach, by suggesting sociolinguistic questions in problems of traductology in his fiction.
