The 25 essays in this collection represent the best contributions to the Tenth International Conference on the Fantastic in the Arts and reflect contemporary criticism of the fantastic including both theory and practice. Some of the writers considered in this volume are Stephen King, Doris Lessing, Rudyard Kipling, Loren Eiseley, Mary Stewart, Bernard Malamud, Orson Scott Card, Toni Morrison, Henry James and Ray Bradbury. The book also critiques television personalities, film directors, and German and Hungarian visual artists. The essays probe the essential theme of the fantastic: the testing of the limits of civilization as writers and artists explore the hidden and the repressed.
