Utopia and Dystopia in the Age of Trump treats literature, film, television series and comic books dealing with utopian and dystopian worlds reflecting on or anticipating our current age. From Henry James dreamlike utopia of The Great Good Place to the psychotic world of Brett Easton Ellis American Psycho, from science fiction and recent horror films, television adaptations of books such as Margaret Atwoods The Handmaids Tale and new series such as The Black Mirror, to the repressive Hitleria dystopia of Katherine Burdekins Swastika Knight, the authors examine the development of scenaarios which either prefigure the rise of individuals such as Donald J. Trump or suggest alternatives to it. Ultimately, one might say of the worlds presented here, viewed from different social and political perspectives: one persons utopia is another ones dystopia. This is the fifth in a series of books edited by Brodman and Doan, and published by Rowman & Littlefied with Fairleigh Dckinson University Press. The Universal Vampire: Origins and Evolution of a Legend and Images of the Modern Vampire: The Hip and the Atavistic (both in 2013) focused on the vampire legend in tradiitonal and modern thought. The Supernatural Revamped: From Timeworn Legends to Twenty-First-Century Chic (2016) examined a range of supernatural beings in literature, film, and other forms of popular culture. Apocalyptic Chic: Visions of the Apocalypse and Post-Apocalypse in Literature and Visual Arts (2017) dealt with legends and images of the apocalypse and post-apocalypse in film and graphic arts, literature and lore from early to modern times and from peoples and cultures around the world.
