"Avant la fin du Monde : l’Atlantide de Platon", Sésame, Des livres et des Mondes, chronique 10, 21 octobre 2010. To put in scene the end of a world while waiting for the end of the world, the authors of science fiction did not hesitate to place themselves under the high patronage of the great Greek philosopher who evoked for the first time the myth of Atlantis: Plato.
