About: Far future in fiction

An Entity of Type: Thing, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

The far future has been used as a setting in many works of science fiction. The far future setting arose in the late 19th century, as earlier writers had little understanding of concepts such as deep time and its implications for the nature of humankind. Classic examples of this genre include works such as H.G. Wells' The Time Machine (1895) or Olaf Stapledon's Last and First Men (1930). Recurring themes include themes such as Utopias, eschatology or the ultimate fate of the universe. Many works also overlap with other genres such as space opera, science fantasy or apocalyptic and post-apocalyptic fiction.

  • 以科幻作品为代表的虚构作品中，故事的发生背景常常会设置为遥远的未来世界。19世纪，随着“深时”概念的出现，小说家对人性有了另一层次的认识，将遥远未来作为小说设定的做法也就兴盛起来。这一派的代表作品有H·G·威尔斯的《时间机器》和奥拉夫·斯塔普雷顿的《》。这类作品的常见主题有乌托邦、末世论、宇宙的终极命运，此外也会和太空歌剧、科学奇幻、末日幻想类作品有所交集。 (zh)
