Repository of Manufactured Ecosystems in Science Fictions
This research is done at the Faculty of Philology of the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, Greece as part of the Canadian research titled “The manufactured ecosystem” that is funded by the Canadian Government under the framework of New Frontiers in Research Fund-Exploration-NFRE-2022-00491. The current research’s aim is to create a website in the form of a digital repository of interactive texts. Specifically, we select some science fictions (20th-21st ce.)’s references / extracts to post on the repository’s website. These literary texts are thematically apt to manufactured ecosystems, climate change, relationship between technology and environment as well as posthumanism.
