  • 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.

  • May 12 #1 Scuttlebutt from the Spermaceti Press
    Jan 12 #1 Scuttlebutt from the Spermaceti Press Sherlockians (and Holmesians) gathered in New York to celebrate the Great Detective's 158th birthday during the long weekend from Jan. 11 to Jan. 15. The festivities began with the traditional ASH Wednesday dinner sponsored by The Adventuresses of Sherlock Holmes at O'Casey's and continued with the Christopher Morley Walk led by Jim Cox and Dore Nash on Thursday morning, followed by the usual lunch at McSorley's). The Baker Street Irregulars' Distinguished Speaker at the Midtown Executive Club on Thursday evening was Dr. Lisa Sanders, author of a "Diagnosis" col- umn for the N.Y. Times and the technical advisor for the television series "House, M.D."; the title of her talk was "Is Holmes Crazy As a Fox, or Just Plain Crazy?", and you will be able to read her paper in the next issue of The Baker Street Journal. The William Gillette Luncheon at Moran's was well attended, as always, and featured Donny Zaldin and Hartley Nathan in a Sherlockian "Carnac the Mag- nificent" skit and the Friends of Bogie's at Baker Street (Paul Singleton, Sarah Montague, and Andrew Joffe) in a Sherlockian tribute to the centenary of the sinking of the Titanic. The luncheon also was the occasion for Al Gregory's presentation of the annual Jan Whimsey award (named in memory of his wife Jan Stauber) for the most whimsical piece in The Serpentine Muse last year; the winner (Karen Murdock, author of "Do You Write Like Arthur Conan Doyle?") received a certificate and a check for the Canonical sum of $221.17.

  • Page 1 of 92 Wold-Newtonry
    Wold-Newtonry: Theory and Methodology for the Literary Archeology of the Wold Newton Universe. By Dr. Peter M. Coogan ([email protected])1 Introduction This article represents an attempt to lay out a taxonomy of the activities related to Wold-Newtonry, the practice of literary archeology that continues Philip José Farmer’s work on the Wold Newton Universe. It is intended to be descriptive, not proscriptive, that is I want to show what we do, not to tell people what to do. The value I intend for this article to have is that it foregrounds our assumptions and provides terminology to discuss our activities. This is, in essence, the first formal statement of the theory and methodology of the field of Wold-Newtonry. I want it to help to codify the field and to move the field forward toward more of a simulacrum of real scholarship. Many authors contributed to this article; in places, I act merely as an editor, so it can be regarded as a corporate statement of the field by the field’s leading practitioners. My coinage of the term literary archeology was inspired by Warren Ellis’ use of “mystery archeologists” in Planetary. As Ellis’ Planetarians investigate and map the “secret history of the twentieth century” (“Nuclear Spring” np), we map and investigate the unknown history of the universe as revealed in novels, pulps, films, comics, legend, myth, epic, and other literary and cultural texts. We treat these literary texts as archeologists treat the artifacts they dig up, as clues to a larger understanding of the world that has to be guessed at and constructed from incomplete pieces.
