Anxiety about Reproduction in the Bible and Science Fiction

Dr. Erica Mongé-Greer

Science Fiction literature continues to press the matter of humanity's ability (and desire) to procreate in the future. Read alongside the Hebrew Bible book of Genesis, it seems that the desire to procreate is intrinsic to ancient Scripture. In this presentation, I read Genesis alongside a 19th Century sci-fi novel, Frankenstein, and a 21st Century sci-fi tv series, Battlestar Galactica. Read more a summary of this podcast in Anxiety about Reproduction in the Bible and Sci-Fi.
