Wonderful article Philip! And there were the South American indigenous peoples too….but probably not as ancient as the Indian sacred texts you mention. I loved reading this and the starring role Mary Shelley kind if dud and didn’t have. Your newsletter is always fascinating! I want to recommend it with words but can’t remember how! Working on it! Love your great many varieties of work! —jennifer
A fascinating look at the origins of science fiction. It's fun to see how literature and its genres have evolved through the centuries.
