La pandemia come prisma di voci (fanta)scientifiche dalla Cina di oggi

This contribution delves into the reactions and declarations expressed by different Chinese science fiction authors during the global pandemic: reactions that can be understood as either aimed at popularizing science or stimulating a scientific (pre)vision of reality. The article specifically focuses on the poetic and rhizomatic approach to the disease taken by Han Song, highlighting the similarities with Fang Fang's diaries. By examining his views on the pandemic and some of his posts on Weibo, this article aims to shed light on the unconventional nature of its writing and on its unique way of understanding society and culture.
