The interdisciplinary field of Literature, Science, and Technology Studies (STS) has gained significant attention in recent years due to its capacity to bridge the gap between humanities and the sciences. This paper explores the intersections of literature, science, and technology from various perspectives, highlighting the importance of STS in understanding the complex relationships between these disciplines. By examining literary texts, scientific theories, and technological advancements, this study reveals the ways in which literature can act as a tool for critically analyzing the impact of science and technology on society. Furthermore, it discusses how an STS approach can help scholars unveil the underlying assumptions, power dynamics, and ethical considerations embedded within scientific practices and technological innovations. The paper underscores the need for a collaborative and multidisciplinary approach to address the challenges posed by the rapidly evolving landscape of science and technology, emphasizing the role of literature in fostering a critical engagement with these issues.
