ABSTRACT: This study aims at promoting a debate about speculative narratives, particularly those commonly classified as Science Fiction or Fantasy, assuming that the first works of speculative literature were not intended to encompass a single generic category given their dialogue with epistemological changes and their close connection with religious and mythological discourses. By close readings and bibliographic analyses, we build on the literary scholarship of Gunn (2005), Alkon (1994), Araújo (2020), and Manlove (1975), among others. The results suggest that there is no stylistic uniformity in Science Fiction or Fantasy narratives, as they directly dialogue with historical, political, and cultural moments, as well as with existing literary styles or movements.
