Genre Variety of the 20th Century American Science Fiction

Abstract

The article covers the issue of genre heterogeneity of the 20^th century American science fiction (SF). It is argued that American SF of that period was represented mainly by three subgenres: hard SF, socio-philosophical SF, and adventurous SF, that differ from each other not only in structure/content, but also in terms of genre. The novelty of the research lies in the fact that genre approach has been applied to classify American science fiction of the 20^th century.
