Book Condition: New. 198 x 129 mm. Language: English . Brand New Book ***** Print on Demand *****. Beyond the Black River is one of the original short stories about Conan the Cimmerian, written by American author Robert E. Howard and first published in Weird Tales magazine, v. 25, nos. 5-6, May-June 1935. The story was republished in the collections King Conan (Gnome Press, 1953) and Conan the Warrior (Lancer Books, 1967). It has more recently been published in the anthology The Mighty Swordsmen (Lancer Books, 1970), and the collections The Conan Chronicles Volume 2: The Hour of the Dragon (Gollancz, 2001) and Conan of Cimmeria: Volume Three (1935-1936) (Del Rey, 2005). It is set in the pseudo-historical Hyborian Age and concerns Conan fighting the savage Hyborian Picts in the unsettled lands beyond the infamous Black River. Due to its unique elements and atypical frontier setting, the story is considered an undisputed classic of Conan lore and is often cited by Howard scholars as one of his best tales.

  • The Nemedian Chroniclers #22 [WS16]
    REHeapa Winter Solstice 2016 By Lee A. Breakiron A WORLDWIDE PHENOMENON Few fiction authors are as a widely published internationally as Robert E. Howard (e.g., in Bulgarian, Croatian, Czech, Dutch, Estonian, Finnish, French, German, Greek, Hungarian, Italian, Japanese, Lithuanian, Norwegian, Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Russian, Slovak, Spanish, Swedish, Turkish, and Yugoslavian). As former REHupan Vern Clark states: Robert E. Howard has long been one of America’s stalwarts of Fantasy Fiction overseas, with extensive translations of his fiction & poetry, and an ever mushrooming distribution via foreign graphic story markets dating back to the original REH paperback boom of the late 1960’s. This steadily increasing presence has followed the growing stylistic and market influence of American fantasy abroad dating from the initial translations of H.P. Lovecraft’s Arkham House collections in Spain, France, and Germany. The growth of the HPL cult abroad has boded well for other American exports of the Weird Tales school, and with the exception of the Lovecraft Mythos, the fantasy fiction of REH has proved the most popular, becoming an international literary phenomenon with translations and critical publications in Spain, Germany, France, Greece, Poland, Japan, and elsewhere. [1] All this shows how appealing REH’s exciting fantasy is across cultures, despite inevitable losses in stylistic impact through translations. Even so, there is sometimes enough enthusiasm among readers to generate fandom activities and publications. We have already covered those in France. [2] Now let’s take a look at some other countries. GERMANY, AUSTRIA, AND SWITZERLAND The first Howard stories published in German were in the fanzines Pioneer #25 and Lands of Wonder ‒ Pioneer #26 (Austratopia, Vienna) in 1968 and Pioneer of Wonder #28 (Follow, Passau, Germany) in 1969.

  • The Hyborian Review Volume 3, Number 8
    The Hyborian Review Volume 3, Number 8. August 31, 1998 Laboring, I tell ya… Great REH Quotes From The Hour of the Dragon, Howard's full-length Conan tale, written in the spring of 1934, published serially in Weird Tales, December 1935-April 1936. In a small glade below him four soldiers in Nemedian chain-mail were binding a noose about the neck of a gaunt old woman in peasant garb. A heap of fagots, bound with cord on the ground nearby, showed what her occupation had been when surprized by these stragglers. Conan felt slow fury swell his heart as he looked silently down and saw the ruffians dragging her toward a tree whose low- spreading branches were obviously intended to act as a gibbet. He had crossed the frontier an hour ago. He was standing on his own soil, watching the murder of one of his own subjects. The old woman was struggling with surprizing strength and energy, and as he watched, she lifted her head and voiced again the strange, weird, far-carrying call he had heard before. It was echoed as if in mockery by the raven flapping above the trees. The soldiers laughed roughly, and one struck her on the mouth. Conan swung from his weary steed and dropped down the face of the rocks, landing with a clang of mail on the grass… “Dogs!” he said without passion and without mercy. “Do Nemedian jackals set themselves up as executioners and hang my subjects at will? First you must take the head of their king.

  • THE RISE of the NEW HYBORIAN LEGION, PART EIGHT by Lee A
    REHeapa Vernal Equinox 2020 THE RISE OF THE NEW HYBORIAN LEGION, PART EIGHT By Lee A. Breakiron As we saw in our first installment [1], the Robert E. Howard United Press Association (REHupa) was founded in 1972 by a teen-aged Tim Marion as the first amateur press association (apa) devoted to Howard. Brian Earl Brown became Official Editor (OE) by 1977 and put in a lot of work guiding the organization, though not always competently. The Mailings at that time were in a real doldrums due to the paucity of REH-related content and the lack of any interest by Brown to do anything about it. In the early 1980s, Rusty Burke, Vernon Clark, and Graeme Flanagan started pushing for more Howard-related content, with Burke finally wresting away the editorship from Brown, as we saw last time. By mid-1984, the regular membership stood at only 23 and Mailings were down to about 130 pages in length. Post-Brown Mailings were not as big or as prompt as they had been, but were of higher quality in content and appearance, with some upswing in REH-related content and marked by more responsive and less contentious administration. L. Sprague de Camp, Glenn Lord, Karl Edward Wagner, and Everett Winne were honorary members, and copies were being archived at Ranger, Tex., Junior College. Former, longtime REHupan James Van Hise wrote the first comprehensive history of REHupa through Mailing #175. [2] Like him, but more so, we are focusing only on noteworthy content, especially that relevant to Howard. Here are the highlights of Mailings #71 through #80.

  • Conan the Barbarian ______
    In Defense of Conan the Barbarian ___________________________________ The Anarchism, Primitivism, & Feminism of Robert Ervin Howard Robert E. Howard has been the subject of numerous media, including several biographies and a movie. He is known and well-remembered as the creator of Conan the Cimmerian Kull of Atlantis, and the Puritan demon-hunter, Solomon Cane. His most famous creation by far, Conan has secured an immoveable foothold in the popular consciousness, and has created an enduring legacy for an author whose career lasted just over a decade. Unfortunately, due mostly to the Schwarzenegger films of the 80s, this legacy- the image of Conan in the public mind- is an undue blemish on a complex, intelligent character, and on Howard himself. In Defense of Conan the Barbarian seeks to invalidate these stereotypes, and to illuminate the social, political, economic, and ethical content of the Howard's original Conan yarns. ANTI-COPYRIGHT 2011 YGGDRASIL DISTRO [email protected] a new addition to Hyborian Scholarship by: yggdrasildistro.wordpress.com Please reprint, republish, & redistribute.

    Doctoral Thesis History in Robert E. Howard’s Fantastic Stories: From an Age Undreamed of to the Era of the Old West and Texas Frontier Dierk Clemens Günther April 2019 Acknowledgements For all the generous help, advice, and support received, I would like to thank the following: Prof. Dr. Shinsuke Ohchi (University of Hiroshima) and Prof. Dr. Reiko Nitta for their all their support, their valuable advice given for this thesis, and their endless patience to bring out the best in me. Lee Breakiron has been of an immense help for having been so gracious to open his archive for me and to provide me with many articles and papers that are not publicly available anymore. Words cannot express my gratitude for this generous support. Also, for always being there, answering many of my question, thanks go out to Bobby Derie, Patrice Louinet and Jeffrey Shanks. I also want to thank the members of Project Pride of Cross Plains, Texas, the staff of the Robert E. Howard Museum, Cross Plains, Texas, and the Public Library, Cross Plains, Texas for all their help in my research for this thesis. Cross Plains is a community of wonderful and kind people, all of whom deserve my thanks but too many to name them here. Nonetheless I would like to give very special thanks for all their help with my research and their friendship to Arlene and Tom Stephenson, Cross Plains, and Ann and Kennith Beeler, Cross Plains. Finally, immense gratitude goes to all my aunts, Claudia Bollacher, Luitgard Reiter, and Barbara Ecker, who always believed in me and without whom I would not be who I am today.

  • THE RISE of the NEW HYBORIAN LEGION, PART FIVE by Lee A
    REHeapa Summer Solstice 2019 THE RISE OF THE NEW HYBORIAN LEGION, PART FIVE By Lee A. Breakiron As we saw in our first installment [1], the Robert E. Howard United Press Association (REHupa) was founded in 1972 by a teen-aged Tim Marion as the first amateur press association (apa) devoted to Howard. Reforms by the next Official Editor (OE), Jonathan Bacon, had gone a good way toward making the fanzine Mailings look less amateurish, which in turn attracted more and better members. There was still too many Mailing Comments (MCs) being made relative to the material worth commenting on, still too little that concerned Howard himself, and still too much being said about tangential matters (pastiches, comics, gaming, etc.) or personal affairs. A lot of fan fiction and poetry was being contributed, but this did garner a lot of appreciation and commentary from the other members. The next OE, Brian Earl Brian, put in a lot of work guiding the organization, though not always competently. Former, longtime REHupan James Van Hise wrote the first comprehensive history of REHupa through Mailing #175. [2] Like him, but more so, we are focusing only on noteworthy content, especially that relevant to Howard. Here are the highlights of Mailings #46 through #55. In Mailing #46 (July, 1980), Brown features some information on electrostencilling and a trip report on the Columbus, Ohio, science fiction and fantasy convention Marcon. He mentions L. Sprague de Camp’s story “Far Babylon,” in which the lost soul of Robert E. Howard appears, portrayed in a positive light. On a matter of current contention, he declares that anyone should be able to “frank” (reproduce in their zine) any material or statements by other people and that no one should have any expectation of privacy from those outside the apa.
