Morris embership in the World Fantasy Convention is lim­ ited to 750 paid, attending members. Because of this limit, sending in your registration does not Mguarantee membership. The rates are as follows: Attending — $100 Supporting — $40 Info Child (12 or under) — $25 Memberships are transferable with written authorization from the original membership holder. This may be done either in advance by sending the authorization to the WFC P.O. box, or at the convention. Somewhat to our surprise, we have not yet sold out our limit of 750 memberships. A precise statement of the posi­ tion at the time this report went to press can be found with the membership list, but roughly speaking we have a couple of hundred memberships left. Accordingly, we will continue to accept memberships by mail until 15-Oct-93 (postmark Hospitality deadline, strictly enforced). We will continue to send confir­ mation cards as we process memberships. If we are not sold out, we will sell memberships at the door. The advantage to you in pre-registering is that the pre-reg­ istered lines at registration always move much faster than and the at-the-door line. Also, because we pre-print name badges, you'll get a nicer badge than if you register at the door. Finally, we still expect to sell out before the con. Play it safe and pre-register. If you have questions about memberships, please contact: Beth Friedman — 874-7366 ospitality is in Mr. C’s and other rooms on the 22nd floor. We will be open from 6:00 PM Thursday until the end of the convention, and you will be able to find things to eat and drink at any time of the day or night. Membership H We will have bagels, pastries, fruit, and coffee in the morn­ ing, so stop in before your panel and fortify yourself.

  • JUDITH MERRIL-PDF-Sep23-07.Pdf (368.7Kb)
    JUDITH MERRIL: AN ANNOTATED BIBLIOGRAPHY AND GUIDE Compiled by Elizabeth Cummins Department of English and Technical Communication University of Missouri-Rolla Rolla, MO 65409-0560 College Station, TX The Center for the Bibliography of Science Fiction and Fantasy December 2006 Table of Contents Preface Judith Merril Chronology A. Books B. Short Fiction C. Nonfiction D. Poetry E. Other Media F. Editorial Credits G. Secondary Sources About Elizabeth Cummins PREFACE Scope and Purpose This Judith Merril bibliography includes both primary and secondary works, arranged in categories that are suitable for her career and that are, generally, common to the other bibliographies in the Center for Bibliographic Studies in Science Fiction. Works by Merril include a variety of types and modes—pieces she wrote at Morris High School in the Bronx, newsletters and fanzines she edited; sports, westerns, and detective fiction and non-fiction published in pulp magazines up to 1950; science fiction stories, novellas, and novels; book reviews; critical essays; edited anthologies; and both audio and video recordings of her fiction and non-fiction. Works about Merill cover over six decades, beginning shortly after her first science fiction story appeared (1948) and continuing after her death (1997), and in several modes— biography, news, critical commentary, tribute, visual and audio records. This new online bibliography updates and expands the primary bibliography I published in 2001 (Elizabeth Cummins, “Bibliography of Works by Judith Merril,” Extrapolation, vol. 42, 2001). It also adds a secondary bibliography. However, the reasons for producing a research- based Merril bibliography have been the same for both publications. Published bibliographies of Merril’s work have been incomplete and often inaccurate.

    THE TECHNOLOGY OF CONSENT: AMERICAN SCIENCE FICTION AND CULTURAL CRISIS IN THE 1980s A Dissertation Submitted to the Committee on Graduate Studies in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Faculty of Arts and Science TRENT UNIVERSITY Peterborough, Ontario, Canada (c) Copyright by Chad Andrews 2016 Cultural Studies Ph.D. Graduate Program May 2016 ABSTRACT The Technology of Consent: American Science Fiction and Cultural Crisis in the 1980s Chad Andrews The 1980s in the United States have come into focus as years of extensive ideological and socioeconomic fracture. A conservative movement arose to counter the progressive gains of previous decades, neoliberalism became the nation’s economic mantra, and détente was jettisoned in favour of military build-up. Such developments materialized out of a multitude of conflicts, a cultural crisis of ideas, perspectives, and words competing to maintain or rework the nation’s core structures. In this dissertation I argue that alongside these conflicts, a crisis over technology and its ramifications played a crucial role as well, with the American public grasping for ways to comprehend a nascent technoculture. Borrowing from Andrew Feenberg, I define three broad categories of popular conceptualization used to comprehend a decade of mass technical and social transformations: the instrumental view, construing technology as a range of efficient tools; the substantive view, insisting technology is an environment that determines its subjects; and a critical approach,
