Date: 2010-09-05 05:58 pm (UTC)whether anything could really be called "Science Fiction" that was written before the term was invented in the 1930s by Hugo Gernsback
Was whoever said that being delinerately provocative? Because it seems nonsense to me to try to claim that the work of HG Wells isn't SF. I think he was the man who really "invented" modern SF. (I know that Jules Verne has a claim, but his stories seem more like adventures that have a few advanced pieces of technology in them. They don't have the same "science fictiony" feel. You can also make a case for Mary Shelley.)
