The authors in this volume deconstruct discuss engage and interrogate the mythologies of the new millennium in science fiction fantasy texts. Using literary and rhetorical criticism - paired with philosophy cultural studies media arts psychology and communication studies - they illustrate the function value and role of new mythologies and show that the universal appeal of these texts is their mythic power drawing upon archetypes of the past which resonate with individuals and throughout culture. In this way they demonstrate how mythology is timeless and eternal.
