  • The Tarzan Series of Edgar Rice Burroughs
    I The Tarzan Series of Edgar Rice Burroughs: Lost Races and Racism in American Popular Culture James R. Nesteby Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree in Doctor of Philosophy August 1978 Approved: © 1978 JAMES RONALD NESTEBY ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ¡ ¡ in Abstract The Tarzan series of Edgar Rice Burroughs (1875-1950), beginning with the All-Story serialization in 1912 of Tarzan of the Apes (1914 book), reveals deepseated racism in the popular imagination of early twentieth-century American culture. The fictional fantasies of lost races like that ruled by La of Opar (or Atlantis) are interwoven with the realities of racism, particularly toward Afro-Americans and black Africans. In analyzing popular culture, Stith Thompson's Motif-Index of Folk-Literature (1932) and John G. Cawelti's Adventure, Mystery, and Romance (1976) are utilized for their indexing and formula concepts. The groundwork for examining explanations of American culture which occur in Burroughs' science fantasies about Tarzan is provided by Ray R. Browne, publisher of The Journal of Popular Culture and The Journal of American Culture, and by Gene Wise, author of American Historical Explanations (1973). The lost race tradition and its relationship to racism in American popular fiction is explored through the inner earth motif popularized by John Cleves Symmes' Symzonla: A Voyage of Discovery (1820) and Edgar Allan Poe's The narrative of A. Gordon Pym (1838); Burroughs frequently uses the motif in his perennially popular romances of adventure which have made Tarzan of the Apes (Lord Greystoke) an ubiquitous feature of American culture.

  • Tarzán, Y El Imperio Perdido
    Edgar Rice Burroughs Tarzán, y el imperio perdido I Nkima danzaba excitadamente sobre el hombro moreno y desnudo de su amo. Parloteaba y chillaba mirando alternativamente a Tarzán a la cara, como interrogándole, y después hacia la jungla. -Algo se acerca, bwana -dijo Muviro, subjefe de los waziri-. Nkima lo ha oído. -Y Tarzán -declaró el hombre mono. -El oído del gran bwana es tan fino como el de Bara, el antílope prosiguió Muviro. -Si no lo hubiera sido, Tarzán hoy no estaría aquí dijo el hombre mono con una sonrisa-. No habría llegado a la edad adulta si Kala, su madre, no le hubiera enseñado a emplear todos los sentidos que Mulungu le dio. -¿Qué es lo que se acerca? -preguntó Muviro. -Un grupo de hombres -respondió Tarzán. -Tal vez no son amistosos -sugirió el africano-. ¿Aviso a los guerreros? Tarzán miró alrededor del pequeño campamento donde una veintena de hombres luchadores estaban preparando su colación nocturna y vio que, como era costumbre entre los waziri, tenían sus armas preparadas y a mano. -No -dijo-. Creo que será innecesario, ya que esta gente que se acerca no viene con sigilo como lo haría un enemigo, ni su número es tan grande como para que les temamos. Pero Nkima, pesimista nato, esperaba lo peor, y a medida que el grupo se acercaba su nerviosismo iba en aumento. Bajó de un salto del hombro de Tarzán al suelo y dio varios brincos; luego, volvió junto a Tarzán, le cogió el brazo y trató de hacerle poner en pie. -¡Corre, corre! -gritó en el lenguaje de los monos-.

    Digitalizado por http://www.librodot.com 1 Librodot Tarzán en el centro de la tierra Edgar Rice Burroughs TARZÁN EN EL CENTRO DE LA TIERRA Edgar Rice Burroughs Título original: Tarzan at the Earth’s — 1930 (Decimotercero volumen de la serie Tarzán) Digitalizado y revisado por Pedro Manuel S. G. 2 Librodot Tarzán en el centro de la tierra Edgar Rice Burroughs PRÓLOGO Desde la más remota antigüedad, las profundidades de la Tierra han ejercido una rara fasci- nación sobre quienes pueblan su superficie. En un principio tal sensación estuvo claramente teñida de aversión y terror. El hombre pri- mitivo vivía sobre un plano divisor entre dos universos distintos, el del aire que se extendía hacia arriba, hasta el infinito, y el de la tierra sólida, igualmente hasta el infinito, pero en la otra dirección. El primero claramente visible, el segundo ignoto, protegido de las intrusiones humanas por su misma esencia. En el universo aéreo estaba el sol, fuente de luz y calor, y también, durante la noche, la luna y las estrellas, enigmáticas pero indudablemente atractivas. En el universo aéreo se movían pájaros de vistoso plumaje o vuelo majestuoso, bajo la tierra sólo existían seres repugnantes, lombrices y gusanos. Una intrusión en el universo inferior, penetrando en alguna caverna, tan sólo llevaba a la oscuridad, al frío y al miedo. La llegada de las primeras religiones reflejó claramente la dicotomía. Había dioses y espíri- tus del cielo, de las aguas, de los árboles... pero siempre los más temibles eran los subterrá- neos. Los seres del mundo inferior lanzaban su fuego por las bocas de los volcanes y provo- caban los terremotos que podían exterminar comunidades enteras.

  • Tarzan the Invincible
    Tarzan The Invincible By Edgar Rice Burroughs Tarzan The Invincible 1. LITTLE NKIMA I am no historian, no chronicler of facts, and, furthermore, I hold a very definite conviction that there are certain subjects which fiction writers should leave alone, foremost among which are politics and religion. However, it seems to me not unethical to pirate an idea occasionally from one or the other, provided that the subject be handled in such a way as to impart a definite impression of fictionizing. Had the story that I am about to tell you broken in the newspapers of two certain European powers, it might have precipitated another and a more terrible world war. But with that I am not particularly concerned. What interests me is that it is a good story that is particularly well adapted to my requirements through the fact that Tarzan of the Apes was intimately connected with many of its most thrilling episodes. I am not going to bore you with dry political history, so do not tax your intellect needlessly by attempting to decode such fictitious names as I may use in describing certain people and places, which, it seems to me, to the best interest of peace and disarmament, should remain incognito. Take the story simply as another Tarzan story, in which, it is hoped, you will find entertainment and relaxation. If you find food for thought in it, so much the better. Doubtless, very few of you saw, and still fewer will remember having seen, a news dispatch that appeared inconspicuously in the papers some time since, reporting a rumor that French Colonial Troops stationed in Somaliland, on the northeast coast of Africa, had invaded an Italian African colony.

  • The Tarzan / John Carter / Pellucidar / Caspak / Moon / Carson of Venus Chronology
    The Tarzan / John Carter / Pellucidar / Caspak / Moon / Carson of Venus Chronology Compiled by Win Scott Eckert Based on: • Philip José Farmer's Tarzan Chronology in Tarzan Alive • John Flint Roy’s A Guide to Barsoom • Further research by Win Scott Eckert This Chronology covers the shared worlds of Edgar Rice Burroughs’ fantastic creations: Tarzan, John Carter of Mars, the Inner World of Pellucidar, Caspak, the Moon, and Carson of Venus. It is my contention that the Tarzan, Pellucidar, and Caspak stories take place in the same universe, a dimension that we will call The Wold Newton Universe (WNU). John Carter and Carson Napier also were born in and start out in the WNU, but their adventures carry them to an alternate dimension, which we shall call the Edgar Rice Burroughs Alternate Universe (ERB-AU). The stories listed on The Wold Newton Universe Crossover Chronology establish that John Carter's Barsoom (from which two invasions, the first Martian invasion against Earth and the second Martian invasion against Annwn, were launched - see Mars: The Home Front) exists in the same alternate universe that contains Carson Napier's Amtor (Venus). It is probable that Zillikian (the planet on the opposite side of the Sun from Earth in Bunduki) is also contained in this alternate universe, the ERB-AU, as well as Thanator (as shown in the Jandar of Callisto series). Humanity's name for their planet in the ERB-AU is Annwn, not Earth (see The Second War of the Worlds), and is called Jasoom by natives of Barsoom. The alternate future described in Burroughs' The Moon Maid and The Moon Men, then, must be the future in store for the planet Annwn.

I may credit the seductive influence of an old vintage upon the narrator for the beginning of it, and my own skeptical incredulity during the days that followed for the balance of the strange tale. When my convivial host discovered that he had told me so much, and that I was prone to doubtfulness, his foolish pride assumed the task the old vintage had commenced, and so he unearthed written evidence in the form of musty manuscript, and dry official records of the British Colonial Office to support many of the salient features of his remarkable narra- tive.

Jane Porter Clayton mastered the ability of coping with wild beasts and wild humans alike, without ever losing any of the grace and charm that her upbringing by a professor-minister must have included. Here is an admirable lady indeed, one who, as Lady Greystoke, can properly entertain guests, whether in her London town house, her African bungalow, or the Cafe Savoy in Paris. She can also lead a group of city people who are stranded in the jungle, or command a platoon of jungle-wise Waziri warriors, and in many ways perform as competently as Tarzan of the Apes himself.
