Summary/Abstract: This study pursues two purposes. The first is to carry out a brief comparative analysis of how the general elements of communication are used in literary works, mainly SF; the second concerns how media communication is present in the works of Romanian and foreign authors. Last but not least, this paper provides an analysis of how writers imagined communication techniques and correspondence with the real, factual world. There are many situations where the image of future communication differs substantially from the concrete ways of achieving it.
