  • Chapterhouse: Dune Frank Herbert April 1985 Those Who Would Repeat
    Chapterhouse: Dune Frank Herbert April 1985 Those who would repeat the past must control the teaching of history. -Bene Gesserit Coda When the ghola-baby was delivered from the first Bene Gesserit axlotl tank, Mother Superior Darwi Odrade ordered a quiet celebration in her private dining room atop Central. It was barely dawn, and the two other members of her Council -- Tamalane and Bellonda -- showed impatience at the summons, even though Odrade had ordered breakfast served by her personal chef. "It isn't every woman who can preside at the birth of her own father," Odrade quipped when the others complained they had too many demands on their time to permit of "time-wasting nonsense." Only aged Tamalane showed sly amusement. Bellonda held her over-fleshed features expressionless, often her equivalent of a scowl. Was it possible, Odrade wondered, that Bell had not exorcised resentment of the relative opulence in Mother Superior's surroundings? Odrade's quarters were a distinct mark of her position but the distinction represented her duties more than any elevation over her Sisters. The small dining room allowed her to consult aides during meals. Bellonda glanced this way and that, obviously impatient to be gone. Much effort had been expended without success in attempts to break through Bellonda's coldly remote shell. "It felt very odd to hold that baby in my arms and think: This is my father," Odrade said. "I heard you the first time!" Bellonda spoke from the belly, almost a baritone rumbling as though each word caused her vague indigestion. She understood Odrade's wry jest, though.

  • The Working Planetologist Speculative Worlds and the Practice of Climate Science
    Chapter 2: The Working Planetologist Speculative Worlds and the Practice of Climate Science Katherine Buse In a 2010 editorial in the journal Nature, the climate scientist and Executive Direc- tor of the International Geosphere–Biosphere Programme, Sybil Seitzinger, ar- gues that scientists ought to be more centrally involved in international policy dis- cussions about sustainable development. “In Frank Herbert’s 1965 science-fiction classic Dune,” she writes, “the number-one position on the planet is held not by a politician, but by a planetary ecologist” (Seitzinger 2010: 601). Seitzinger invokes Herbert’s novel here to make a pointed comparison. In Dune, the inhabitants of the planet Arrakis are engaging in a long-term terraforming project that neces- sitates the oversight of a planetary ecologist. But here on Earth, we too have been making such changes, “altering, in profound and uncontrolled ways, key biologi- cal, physical and chemical processes of ecosystems.” For Seitzinger, grappling re- sponsibly with these processes requires a global, far-sighted perspective that she finds lacking in most Earth politicians. She advises that, while the governments of Earth have not yet considered appointing a planetary ecologist, “perhaps it is time to take the idea seriously.” And she is dead serious, both as a worried scientist and policy analyst, and also as a reader of Dune. Although she discusses the novel explicitly only in the first and last sentences of her editorial, Seitzinger does not invoke Dune merely to provide a bit of ‘science communication’ flavor to entertain Nature’s interdisciplinary read- ership. After all, the perspective she takes in the editorial is profoundly similar to Frank Herbert’s vision in Dune: both pragmatic and theoretical, it subsumes socio-political concerns as components of a planetary ecological model.

  • QUESTIONS on BOOK TWO Professor Corey Olsen Mythgard Institute Questions on Book Two
    QUESTIONS ON BOOK TWO Professor Corey Olsen Mythgard Institute Questions on Book Two 1. The Irulan Oeuvre, Book II In My Father’s House (3) Conversations with Muad’Dib (1) Arrakis Awakening (2) Manual of Muad’Dib (2) A Child’s History of Muad’Dib (1) Muad’Dib: Conversations (1) Private Reflections on Muad’Dib (1) The Wisdom of Muad’Dib (2) Collected Sayings of Muad’Dib (1) Muad’Dib, the Man (1) Questions on Book Two 2. Untold Stories (Matt Shaw) Like Tolkien, Herbert hints at reams of history and back-story in brief passages: “It reads like the Azhar Book, she thought, recalling her studies of the Great Secrets. Has a Manipulator of Religions been on Arrakis?” Manipulator of Religions? That sounds vaguely awesome. Not to mention that “Great Secrets” is capitalized, which suggests much. My quick take: In the Dune universe, every meeting is a test and every conversation is a performance. They’re not much for the small talk. Or perhaps they favor Small Talk. Questions on Book Two 3. The Polyglot World (Yves de Gennip) Thinking back about the discussion about the OC Bible in one of the lectures, I was reminded of my own impressions when reading Dune for the first time back in my teens. Being Dutch, clearly I couldn’t help but wondering if the “orange” part had anything to do with The Netherlands (which, indirectly, it has, if the connection with Protestantism is a valid one, as discussed in the lecture). This feeling was only enforced by the word “Landsraad”, which is a Dutch word, or, more accurately, it is a combination of two Dutch words, “land” (which in itself could of course also be English) and “raad” (council).

  • Hijos De Dune Dune - 3
    Leto Atreides, el hijo de Paul —el mesías de una religión que arrasó el universo, el mártir que, ciego, se adentró en el desierto para morir—, tiene ahora nueve años. Pero es mucho más que un niño, porque dentro de él laten miles de vidas que lo arrastran a un implacable destino. Él y su hermana gemela, bajo la regencia de su tía Alia, gobiernan un planeta que se ha convertido en el eje de todo el universo: Arrakis, más conocido como Dune. Y en este planeta, centro de las intrigas de una corrupta clase política y sometido a una sofocante burocracia religiosa, aparece de pronto un predicador ciego, procedente del desierto. ¿Es realmente Paul Atreides, que regresa de entre los muertos para advertir a la humanidad del peligro más abominable?
