Talk:Solar eclipses in fiction

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

(moved a comment from user:69.150.85.144 from the article to this page:) Also, an explanation of the phenomenon or metaphor as a plot device is needed. Sander123 15:44, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Lunar eclipses in fiction

User:Tracerhand added H. Rider Haggard's King Solomon's Mines to the list of novels in the "Solar eclipses in fiction" article, then deleted it, as he notes, on realizing that the eclipse in that novel was a lunar eclipse.

It seems a shame to neglect lunar eclipses in fiction, such as Haggard's. Perhaps Tracerhand or someone else would care to start an article for "Lunar eclipses in fiction," with links between it and the "Solar eclipses in fiction" article?

Another possibility would be to retitle the present "Solar eclipses in fiction" article to the broader "Eclipses in fiction" to accommodate lunar eclipses as well as solar eclipses.

Any preferences?
