SCIENCE FICTION JOURNAL 4 VIEWPOINT ETHEBLINE Our Reviewers 9D /THERLINE VIEWPOINT 3 Well, we really seem to be . under fire lately, first with certain psychopathic 'friendly aliens' , and now locally. In Melbourne ! Well, I never......... We don't normally print : readers letters, but in this case, I'm doing just that. The Editor, ETHERLINE, Dear Sir, I do not deny Mr Santos may make any valid criticism concerning the quality of the work under re­ view, but an irresponsible and verbose inaccuracy must be corr - ected immediately. I therefore direct Hr. Santos' car­ eful attention to the cover of the September BRE ASTOUNDING, ' in which will be found Emsh portraying a man staring out of a Moon bubble, not, as Mr Santos said in his review, ' a man staring outside brooding - without protection.' The man is obviously in­ side the building, as the frame of the window is visible. Mr. Santos will achieve some sati­ sfaction from this comment - someone does read his critiques. David Robin. Well, itr. Robin, we can only apol­ ogise most.humbly for the inexcuseablc error committed by one of T HE LEADING SCIENCE FICTION JOURNAL 4 VIEWPOINT ETHEBLINE our reviewers. As a punishment, he has been suspended for’ a per - iod of 'not less than five minutes, nor more than fifteen', and the editor has shut himself away from the world for a like period. We trust that you will continue to read our fine reviews, and ex — cuse our slight lapse. On to more mundane things, several more mis­ siles in the US war have arrived, much along the lines of the pre­ vious ones. However, we not intend to give these letters the tre­ atment they deserve - complete and utterignorance. This will the treatment of any received in the future as well. .Just one last word, however - grow up out of those three oomered pants, fellows, they look a hit silly ! ■ IJC THE LEADING SCIENCE FICTION JOURNAL PART' TWO RAY BRADBURY Number Forty Mine Compiled by Donald H.

No Strings Attached Br Arg Jun'51 To be Concluded in the next Issue THE LEADING SCIENCE FICTION JOURNAL 8 THE AMERICAN SCENE ETHERLTNE The SFantasy Magazine Scene The ijiags are more than holding their own and have shown a strong upward trend in sales. Several publishers and editors we've interviewed lately declare that SFantasy mags help make a few comfortable salaries for the editors, bring in are better than average chips to quite a number of steady writers, and earn for their, publishers a healthy profit. Still, though, sales are on an average only around 55,000... the best sellers are respec­ tively ASTOUNDING, GAIAXY and F&SF. Of course, the worst selling one happens to be OTHER WORLDS (which substitutes the titls FLYING SAUCERS from Other Worlds every other issue). ASF is said to bring in from 80 to 80,000 roo.dcrs, GALAXY an average of 75,000 and F<8SF around 65,000. OU goes down as far as only 30,000, sometimes only 18 to 20,000 according to Palmer's statistics. However, sales & quality have followed each other faithfully all the way through during the last seven years: a good magazine will resist any rece­ ssion; one with poor format and bad stories will flop at the least bit of economic disturbance. The newest SF mag arrival vzas AMAZING SF NOVELS during the summer, an item that' s reached lovzer levels than even its brother in crud, AMAZING STORIES. A.S4F.N can best be compared as a low-brow counterpart to GALAXY NOVELS. Out sometine this October or early November is the long delayed Fred Pohl edit­ ed STAR Science Fiction, to be published by Ballantines. The cove? for the first issue, dated Dec'57 , is typical Ballentine surreal­ ism found on most of their cover art, and drawn by Richard Powers, THE LEADING SCIENCE FICTION JOURNAL etherline AMERICAN SCJ2IE 9 who also did all the inside pics. The line-up of material for the first issue is: IT WALKS IN BEAUTY - Chan Davis S, AS UI ZEBATINSKY - Isaac Asimov DAYBROKE - Robert Block MARK X - John A Sentry JUDAS DANCING - Brian W. Aldiss NOR THE MOON BY NIGHT - Gavin Hyde ( a Bradbury discovery while in Ireland writing the Huston MOBY DICK) THE APPRENTICE WOBBLER - Poul Anderson Nothing much is yet known of every ex­ act detail, but a company in the New York City area with the in­ itial N.V. E.S. Inc., is making a dramatic move in SFantasy. HUES hope to have several SFantasy titles floating around in 1958,af­ ter a major delay and the breakup of American News Co., formerly the world's largest distributor whose departure from the . field has caused the biggest shake up since the Depression of the 30's ANC's retirement also delayed STAR SF's appearance, not to men - tion several hundred established mags of all types whose distur­ bance ranged from one week to one or more months delay, and even to bankruptcy in some cases. NWES also has several old time fen (now pros) behind the wheel - the first mag they're bringing out is a non-SF item entitled CONFIDENTIAL LIFE, out in October 1957 with a cover date of December; but as some of the material will be of SF interest from time to time, such as ROCKETSHIP TO THE MOON IN 1960, a 'fact' article in the first issue. NITES has chosen a pretty nifty title for one of their several possible SF publications meanwhile: ETERNITY. This, however, may or may not he used for their first SF venture (due sometime late this year) a venture, I'll hasten to add, which represents about the most castic change and departure from 'conventional' SFantasy maga­ zines in 'the history of the field', according to Nicholas De Morgan, one of the executives of the company. He continued with 'This might very well be the shot in the arm that the field's needed since Gernsback came on. the scene; and we want to be the THE LEADING SCIENCE FICTION JOURNAL 10 AMERICA!' SCENE ETHERLINE first to pioneer this move.1 x’m particularly proud to say that your writer will be ohe-^JH, yub^s^ working for the new publishing company.

Stephen King's books have become a lightning rod for the tensions around issues of including "mass market" popular literature in middle and 1.i.gh school English classes and of who chooses what students read. King's fi'tion is among the most popular of "pop" literature, and among the most controversial. These essays spotlight the ways in which King's work intersects with the themes of the literary canon and its construction and maintenance, censorship in public schools, and the need for adolescent readers to be able to choose books in school reading programs. The essays and their authors are: (1) "Reading Stephen King: An Ethnography of an Event" (Brenda Miller Power); (2) "I Want to Be Typhoid Stevie" (Stephen King); (3) "King and Controversy in Classrooms: A Conversation between Teachers and Students" (Kelly Chandler and others); (4) "Of Cornflakes, Hot Dogs, Cabbages, and King" (Jeffrey D.

  • Presented to the Graduate Council of the North
    A COMPARISON OF THREE TECHNIQUES OF TEACHING LITERATURE: SILENT READING, SOLO PERFORMANCE, AND READERS THEATRE DISSERTATION Presented to the Graduate Council of the North Texas State University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY By David R. Maberry, B. A., M. A. Denton, Texas December, 1975 Maberry, David R., A Comparison of Three Techniques of Teaching Literature: Silent Reading, Solo Performance, and Readers Theatre. Doctor of Philosophy (College Teaching: Speech Communication and Drama), December, 1975, 231 pp., 17 tables, bibliography, 35 titles. The problem of this study was a comparison of the re- sponses of students to three techniques of teaching litera- ture: silent reading, solo performance, and readers theatre. Students in three classes of grade nine and students in three classes of grade eleven were selected at three high schools in the north Texas area. There was a total of three hundred seventy-one students involved in the experiment. Each of the three classes at each grade level in each high school received three presentations of three short stories. Each class read one short story silently; each class heard one short story presented by solo performance; and each class heard one short story presented in the technique of readers theatre. Immediately after each presentation the students were administered a semantic differential to deter- mine which technique of presentation stimulated the most appreciation of literature. At the same time they were ad- ministered a short objective test of ten items to determine which technique achieved more comprehension. Ten days later all students received the same test over all three stories to determine which technique stimulated the most retention.

By writing a draft in a day I have a story with a skin around it.” Ray Bradbury’s creative coda originated long before he fashioned this concise version of it for his December 1964 Show magazine interview. His daily writing habit had become a quotidian fever by the early 1940s, and he soon learned to avoid interruptions from any other voices—including his own rational judgments. Each day became a race between subconscious inspiration and the stifling effects of his own self-conscious thoughts—the more logical thought patterns that he desperately tried to hold at bay during the few hours it would take him to complete an initial draft. Bradbury was convinced that the magic would dissolve away if he failed to carry through on a story idea or an opening page at first sitting, and it’s not surprising that his Show interview coda came with a cautionary corollary: “If one waits overnight to finish a story, quite often the texture one gets the next day is different.

  • Ecopolitical Transformations and the Development of Environmental
    Ecopolitical Transformations and the Development of Environmental Philosophical Awareness in Science Fictional Narratives of Terraforming. Thesis submitted in accordance with the requirements of the University of Liverpool for the degree of Doctor in Philosophy by Chris Pak. September 2012. 2 Abstract This thesis examines the motif of terraforming from Wells’ War of the Worlds (1898) to James Cameron’s film Avatar (2009) in order to assess the dialogical development of ecological themes and its imbrication with politics in science fictional narratives of terraforming. It tracks the growth of the theme in four distinct phases that are contextualised by a short history of terraforming in the introductory first chapter. Chapter two examines the appearance of proto-terraforming and proto- Gaian themes in British scientific romance and American pulp sf prior to Jack Williamson’s coining of the term “terraform” in 1942. Environmental philosophical concepts of nature’s otherness, Lee’s Asymmetry, Autonomy and No-Teleology Theses and notions of identification with nature are examined in this connection to illustrate the character of these texts’ engagement with environmental philosophy and ecopolitics. Chapter three examines the development of the terraforming theme in primarily American 1950s terraforming stories and explores how the use of elements of the American Pastoral are deployed within the discourse of sf to consider the various ways in which the political import of terraforming is imagined. Chapter four explores the impact of the environmental movement of the 1960s in terraforming stories of the 1960s-1970s. Beginning with a consideration of the use of Gaian images in characterisations of alien ecologies, this chapter then progresses to consider a parallel strand of terraforming stories that transform the themes of the 1950s texts in the light of the impact of the 1960s environmental movement.

    I Thesis/Dissertation Sheet I Australia's -1 Global UNSW University I SYDN�Y I Surname/Family Name Dempsey Given Name/s Claire Kathleen Marsden Abbreviation for degree as give in the University calendar MPhil Faculty UNSW Canberra I School School of Humanities and Social Sciences Thesis Title 'A quick kiss in the dark from a stranger': Stephen King and the Short Story Abstract 350 words maximum: (PLEASE TYPE) There has been significant scholarly attention paid to both the short story genre and the Gothic mode, and to the influence of significant American writers, such as Edgar Allan Poe, Nathaniel Hawthorne and H.P. Lovecraft, on the evolution of these. However, relatively little consideration appears to have been offeredto the I contribution of popular writers to the development of the short story and of Gothic fiction. In the Westernworld in the twenty-firstcentury there is perhaps no contemporary popular writer of the short story in the Gothic mode I whose name is more familiar than that of Stephen King. This thesis will explore the contribution of Stephen King to the heritage of American short stories, with specific reference to the American Gothic tradition, the I impact of Poe, Hawthorneand Lovecrafton his fiction, and the significance of the numerous adaptations of his works forthe screen. I examine Stephen King's distinctive style, recurring themes, the adaptability of his work I across various media, and his status within American popular culture. Stephen King's contribution to the short story genre, I argue, is premised on his attention to the general reader and to the evolution of the genre itself, I providing as he does a conduit between contemporary an_d classic short fiction.

Before anyone else, I need to express my absolute gratitude to my wife, Karla, and my daughters, Brynne and Bryar. All three of them have sacrificed greatly so that I could pursue this endeavor. There is no way that this would have been possible if I did not have the full support of my family. Without the support of my parents, it would not have been possible for me to leave a secure job and pursue a terminal degree in the humanities. I will always be grateful for their support in every form as I pursued the things that I love. I was fortunate to have a dissertation committee who helped me navigate numerous obstacles that occurred while completing this dissertation, while never once adding an obstacle to my degree completion path.
