    III. Discussion Questions A. Individual Stories Nathaniel Hawthorne

    III. Discussion Questions a. Individual Stories Nathaniel Hawthorne, “Rappaccini’s Daughter” (1844) 1. As an early sf tale, this story makes important contributions to the sf megatext. What images, situations, plots, characters, settings, and themes do you recognize in Hawthorne’s story that recur in contemporary sf works in various media? 2. In Hawthorne’s The Scarlet Letter, the worst sin is to violate, “in cold blood, the sanctity of the human heart.” In what ways do the male characters of “Rappaccini’s Daughter” commit this sin? 3. In what ways can Beatrice be seen as a pawn of the men, as a strong and intelligent woman, as an alien being? How do these different views interact with one another? 4. Many descriptions in the story lead us to question what is “Actual” and what is “Imaginary”? How do these descriptions function to work both symbolically and literally in the story? 5. What is the attitude toward science in the story? How can it be compared to the attitude toward science in other stories from the anthology? Jules Verne, excerpt from Journey to the Center of the Earth (1864) 1. Who is narrator of this tale? In your opinion, why would Verne choose this particular character to be the narrator? Describe his relationship with the other members of this subterranean expedition. Many of Verne’s early novels feature a trio of protagonists who symbolize the “head,” the “heart,” and the “hand.” Why? How does this notion apply to the protagonists in Verne’s Journey to the Center of the Earth? 2.

    “A Real Joy to Be Had” Kim Stanley Robinson Interviewed by Terry Bisson

    “a Real joy to be haD” Kim Stanley RobinSon inteRVieWeD by teRRy biSSon David Hartwell once said that the Golden Age of Science Fiction is twelve. Was that true for you? What was your first literature? I didn’t know science fction existed until I was eighteen; then I fell in pretty deeply. The frst book I remember reading was Huckleberry Finn, and I still have that copy of the book with me, it has a gorgeous cover depicting Huck and Jim pulling a caught fsh onto the raft, in vibrant colors. For years I pretended to be Huck Finn. My parents subscribed to the Scholastic book of the month club, and I read those when they came in the mail pretty much the day of arrival. I read everything that caught my eye at the library when I was a child, then as a teenager did the same, but became a fan of locked- room detective mysteries, chiefy John Dickson Carr but also Ellery Queen, and all the rest of that crowd from the 1930s. Then just as I was leaving for college I ran into the science fction section at the library, all the books with their rocketship-and-radiation signs on the spine, and that was very exciting. In college I majored in history 78 | Kim Stanley RobinSon and literature, and on the side majored in science fction, absorbing the New Wave pretty much as it happened. Did your parents read to you as a kid? Did anyone? Do you read to your kids? Yes, my mom read to my brother and me at bed- time, and then I read on by myself with a fashlight.

    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.

    Higgins, David. "New Wave Science Fiction" a Virtual Introduction to Science Fiction

    New Wave Science Fiction David Higgins Science fiction's New Wave was a transatlantic avant-garde movement that took place during the 1960s and 1970s, and it had a lasting impact on the genre as a whole. New wave writers were highly experimental, they wanted to develop a modern literary science fiction with advanced aesthetic techniques, and they focused on 'soft' sciences like psychology and sociology rather than 'hard' sciences like physics and astronomy. The movement as a whole sought to subvert the pulp genre conventions that had dominated science fiction since the Golden Age. A wide variety of authors were part of the New Wave movement. Some of them, such as J.G. Ballard, Samuel R. Delany, Ursula K. LeGuin, Joanna Russ, and Philip K. Dick have achieved critical attention in the literary mainstream. Many others are known primarily as science fiction writers, and a short list of these includes Brian Aldiss, Barrington J. Bayley, John Brunner, Thomas M. Disch, Harlan Ellison, Philip Jose Farmer, M. John Harrison, Langdon Jones, Damon Knight, Michael Moorcock, Charles Platt, James Sallis, Robert Silverberg, John T. Sladek, Norman Spinrad, Roger Zelazny, and Pamela Zoline. In order to understand the New Wave, it is first useful to understand some of the profound technological, social, and political transformations that were taking place during the 1960s. In the Western world, there was an explosion of new techno- logical advancements during this time, and there were deep disagreements about the consequences of these new technologies. On the more optimistic side, some be- lieved that technological progress would lead mankind out into the stars.
