Science In Fiction: Not Always Science Fiction!

"How does Science impact on Literature? And does Literature influence Science? Blend your interest in both at this our final session of this season. Author, editor and former publisher, Karen Elizabeth Steed, will talk about the relatively new impact of science on fiction and non-fiction writing. She’ll provide a brief overview of the genesis of the genres of science fiction, fantasy and magic realism, then talk about some contemporary authors who use science for inspiration, including Margaret Atwood (wave theory) and others. Steed will use examples from her work to illustrate a less obvious use of science, including the baroque understanding of science, in her most recent non-fiction publication, Malta: The Beautiful Hour."

Talk & Book Launch: Sirius The Star of the Maltese Temples

"The magnificent prehistoric temples in the Maltese islands that once dotted the landscape have long been dated to the late Stone Age and no earlier. However, this view has been repeatedly challenged at various times during the past hundred years.
Through the discovery of the orientation of the remaining eighteen temples to a single star, Sirius, the new dating that has resulted places the oldest temples more than 5,000 years earlier.
You are cordially invited to hear the author explain her astonishing conclusions as the result of ten years of independent research."
