Representations of classed masculinity, femininity, whiteness, Blackness, and indigeneity engage the perceived threats to, and the threats of, white patriarchy in the face of shifting racial and gender roles. This analysis utilizes travel guides, souvenirs, travel diaries, popular histories, television shows, newspapers, brochures, travel reviews, and marketing materials from the nineteenth century through the present to

  • New Pulp-Related Books and Periodicals Available from Michael Chomko for November & December 2008
    New pulp-related books and periodicals available from Michael Chomko for November & December 2008 During the second week of October, my wife and I spent a wonderful week in New York’s Adirondack Mountains. Dianne and I have been visiting this beautiful area for most of the thirty years we have been married. It’s a mixture of glacial lakes and rugged mountains, largely unspoiled by strip malls and the like. Our week was quiet, interesting, and to top things off, the weather was pretty darn good. Not bad for the middle of October. I’m sorry that this catalog is a little slow in coming. However, as I mentioned in my email, I’ve been extremely busy working with Jack Cullers, Ed Hulse, Chris Kalb and Barry Traylor, organizing and publicizing what we are calling PulpFest 2009. Billed as “The Summer’s Leading Pulp Convention,” PulpFest 2009 is a new and improved version of the venerable convention catering to fans and collectors of vintage popular fiction. It will be held from Friday, July 31 st , through Sunday, August 2 nd , at the Ramada Plaza Hotel and Convention Center in Columbus, Ohio. For further information, please visit our website at www.pulpfest.com. There you can download some of the publicity flyers that we have created for our convention and learn how to be added to our mailing list. Please try to support this new and exciting convention in any way that you can. Thanks. Our dining room is now filled with books. As soon as I’m done with this catalog, I’m going to start shipping the backlog of stock that arrived while I was on vacation and busy with PulpFest activities.

  • Magic : L'assemblée Treize Ans De Multivers
    Magic : l’Assemblée Treize ans de Multivers Tour d’horizon des éditions et extensions du jeu de Wizards of the Coast avec jalons pour une étude des univers fictifs des jeux de cartes à jouer et à collectionner Pierre Cuvelier mai-juillet 2006 Introduction Le présent document s’intéresse au jeu de cartes à jouer et à collectionner Magic : l’Assemblée, non sous son aspect technique (on n’y trouvera ni règles du jeu, ni conseils stratégiques, amplement développés par l’éditeur, les magazines spécialisés et la communauté des joueurs sur toutes sortes de supports) mais sous son aspect narratif, souvent ignoré ou négligé par ceux qui s’intéressent à Magic, y compris parfois les joueurs eux-mêmes. Magic : l’Assemblée n’est pas seulement un jeu de cartes, c’est aussi un univers de fiction, de fantasy – ou plutôt c’est à la fois un jeu de cartes et un univers de fiction auquel ces cartes servent de support, et cette caractéristique m’a semblé suffisamment originale pour m’y intéresser de plus près. On trouvera donc, dans les pages qui suivent, une description de l’univers posé par le jeu de 1993, puis considérablement enrichi par ses multiples extensions, chacune présentant un nouvel aspect de l’univers et une nouvelle histoire, ou un nouvel épisode d’une intrigue à grande échelle. Les règles et innovations « techniques » de chaque extension ont dû également être abordées, dans la mesure où, comme dans tout jeu mettant en scène un univers fictif, ces règles participaient de la description de l’univers. L’histoire elle-même garde cependant la part la plus importante, complétée par divers commentaires et ébauches d’analyses tentant de cerner l’évolution de la logique narrative qui transparaît sur les cartes des extensions successives, logique qui n’est nullement restée immuable au cours de l’histoire, déjà longue (treize ans), du jeu.
