Phillip Kerr

William Tenn (eigentlich Philip Klass; * 9. Mai 1920 in London) ist ein englischer Science-Fiction-Schriftsteller und Literaturwissenschaftler.

Inhaltsverzeichnis

Leben

William Tenn hat hauptsächlich im so genannten Golden Age der Science-Fiction geschrieben, und gilt als der bedeutendste Satiriker des Genres jener Zeit.

Invasionen von Planeten, sei es die der Menschen auf anderen Planeten (z. B. Venus and the Seven Sexes), sei es die von Aliens auf der Erde (z. B. The Liberation of Earth), verlaufen stets anders als in traditionellen SF-Klischees; gleichzeitig stellen diese Erzählungen häufig eine Kritik an der zeitgenössischen Gesellschaft und Politik dar.

Auch Tenns Entwürfe zukünftiger Gesellschaften auf der Erde zeugen von einem scharfen Blick für menschliche Schwächen: In Eastward Ho! finden sich nach dem Zusammenbruch des Gesellschaftssystemes die Indianer wieder überlegen, während die Europäer zurückgedrängt werden; The Masculinist Revolt stellt eine Abrechnung mit männlichem und weiblichem Chauvinismus dar.

Die New England Science Fiction Association, Inc., kurz NESFA, hat 2001 und 2004 unter dem Titel Immodest Proposals und Here Comes Civilization Tenns gesamtes Kurzgeschichtenwerk und die längeren belletristischen Texte veröffentlicht. Seine Essays sind im dritten Band Dancing Naked kompliliert.
