Books by Francis Godwin

WORK IS IN FRENCH This book is a reproduction of a work published before 1920 and is part of a collection of books reprinted and edited by Hachette Livre, in the framework of a partnership with the National Library of France, providing the opportunity to access old and often rare books from the BnF's heritage funds.

Arguably the first work of science fiction in English, Francis Godwin's ""The Man in the Moone"" was published in 1638, pseudonymously and posthumously. This title includes a critical introduction that places the text in its scientific and historical contexts.
