  • Summary

  • In this bonus episode on Dune (2021), we chat with Katherine Gwyther, about using Dune in her research. Kat gives us an introduction into Fredric Jameson's thoughts on fantasy and science-fiction (including what Jameson has to say about the spice worms in Dune), and explains why she prefers to teach Hebrew Bible with films like Dune, rather than with traditional biblical-adaptation movies.

    If you haven't listened to our main episode on Dune, we recommend doing so first, so you have the full context for our discussion. 


    Many thanks to Kat for her extra time.
