Power and Society in Terry Pratchett’s Discworld
A critical deep-drive into conceptions of power and society in Terry Pratchett’s Discworld novels, this book brings together experts in fantasy literature, political sciences, economics, philosophy, history, and journalism to consider the intricate social tapestry of one of the most intricate worlds in modern fantasy. Surveying the Discworld’s institutionalised power structures from government and police to civil services, banks and societies, it explores ideas such as language, translation, humour, crowds, community, justice and coercion in the series’ major works. Featuring analyses of novels such as Men at Arms, Equal Rites, Carpe Jugulum, Guards! Guards!, Jingo, Night Watch, Wyrd Sisters, Witches Abroad and many more, this collection illuminates how Pratchett juxtaposed his narratives with contemporary reflections on social constructs. Broken down into parts looking at social power dynamics, building and destroying worlds and the power of language, the book offers a much-needed corrective to the dearth of scholarship on one of fantasy literature’s worldbuilding titans.

The ancestors of Terry L Tilton came from around the globe; from the ancient castles of Wales and Scotland, the farmlands of Russia and the island of Roanoke in the Americas to the farmlands of Minnesota. Some of those ancestors included men such as Magdoc, Prince of Wales who supposedly sailed to the Americas, landing on the Gulf of Mexico in 1170. Others came to Jamestown, Virginia in the 1400s and familiar names such as Pearsall, Bradshaw, Penn, Hardisty, Hurlburt, and Evans play important parts in the development of the American nation. Although they came from the castles of Wales and Scotland, they became farmers, doctors, attorneys, teachers and soldiers. They fought in every war; the Revolution, the War of 1812, the French and Indian War, the Civil War, World War I and World War 2, the Korean Conflict, and Vietnam. Many of them were religious leaders, politicians and Freemasons. Some in medieval times were even Knights Templars.

Each of the fifteen chapters concerns a particular area of research and consists of a commentary by a subject-matter expert and selection of representative papers. The chapters, organized more or less chronologically in terms of Terry’s career, encompass a wide variety of mathematical and statistical domains, along with their application to biology and medicine. Accordingly, earlier chapters tend to be more theoretical, covering some algebra and probability theory, while later chapters concern more recent work in genetics and genomics. The chapters also span continents and generations, as they present research done over four decades, while crisscrossing the globe.The commentaries provide insight into Terry’s contributions to a particular area of research, by summarizing his work and describing its historical and scientific context, motivation, and impact. In addition to shedding light on Terry’s scientific achievements, the commentaries reveal endearing aspects of his personality, such as his intellectual curiosity, energy, humor, and generosity.
