Science-fiction et fiction scientifique en France : de Jules Verne à J.-H. Rosny aîné by Arthur B. Evans

“…By examining diachronically the place and function of such "scientifically didactic discourse" in the works of certain French authors of the late 19th and early 20th centuries such as Verne, d'Ivoi, Le Rouge, Robida, and Rosny aine', one can discern a palpable evolution in the narrative recipes used. On the one hand, the deductive (and often reductive) passages of scientific pedagogy become progressively muted and supplanted by inductive hermeneutic structures which serve to enhance fictional verisimilitude. …”
