| Description | The beginnings of the portrayal of the apocalypse in literature can already be found in mythological texts or in the Bible. A few centuries later, the image of the apocalypse was transformed into dystopian texts were the beginnings of science fiction. Post-apocalyptic science fiction is a popular genre these days, and it's on the rise. The apocalypse has always been, is, and I suppose will continue to be in literature. Related to this is the age-old human desire for completeness, the whole, and the need to express the importance of life in relation to time. |
