    “We Werenʼt Kidding” • Prediction as Ideology in American Pulp Science Fiction, 1938-1949 By Joseph A. Forte Thesis submitted to the faculty of the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts In History Robert P. Stephens (chair) Marian B. Mollin Amy Nelson Matthew H. Wisnioski May 03, 2010 Blacksburg, VA Keywords: Astounding Science-Fiction, John W. Campbell, Jr., sci-fi, science fiction, pulp magazines, culture, ideology, Isaac Asimov, Robert Heinlein, Theodore Sturgeon, A. E. van Vogt, American exceptionalism, capitalism, 1939 Worldʼs Fair, Cold War © 2010 Joseph A. Forte “We Werenʼt Kidding” Prediction as Ideology in American Pulp Science Fiction, 1938-1949 Joseph A. Forte ABSTRACT In 1971, Isaac Asimov observed in humanity, “a science-important society.” For this he credited the man who had been his editor in the 1940s during the period known as the “golden age” of American science fiction, John W. Campbell, Jr. Campbell was editor of Astounding Science-Fiction, the magazine that launched both Asimovʼs career and the golden age, from 1938 until his death in 1971. Campbell and his authors set the foundation for the modern sci-fi, cementing genre distinction by the application of plausible technological speculation. Campbell assumed the “science-important society” that Asimov found thirty years later, attributing sci-fi ascendance during the golden age a particular compatibility with that cultural context. On another level, sci-fiʼs compatibility with “science-important” tendencies during the first half of the twentieth-century betrayed a deeper agreement with the social structures that fueled those tendencies and reflected an explication of modernity on capitalist terms.

Sometimes I wish you could subject people like that to surgical, aseptic flaying, the kind Gene Wolfe described in The Shadow of the Torturer. Have you read People of the Lie, by M. Scott Peck?

  • Catalogue XVI
    Catalogue XVI Welcome to our 16th catalogue, and we think, our finest. 108 items of rare speculative fiction from 1795 right up to 2016. The earth is around 108 sun-diameters from the sun, and in a strange quirk of the cosmos, the earth is around 108 moon-diameters from the moon. This is why the sun and moon are basically the same size in the sky, relative sizes varying by the orbital eccentricities of the earth and moon around the sun and earth respectively. When the sun, moon and earth are in syzygy (yep) this ratio allows for a total solar eclipse. In 1915 Einstein published his paper on general relativity. Despite the fact that Einstein’s theory accounted for the precession of Mercury’s orbit, a flaw with Newtonian physics first identified sixty years earlier, there was general distrust in the notion of spacetime with many of Einstein’s contemporaries preferring the more evidently empirical laws of Newton. Proof was desirable. To measure the warping of spacetime a massive body is needed. Stars are pretty massive, and the sun ain’t too shabby (it’s no Arcturus, but it’s still pretty impressive). In 1919, an experiment was devised to prove general relativity by comparing the relative positions of stars when their emitted light passes close to a massive object to their position when much further away from the massive object. The expected result was that the stars passing close to the sun would have their light warped by the sun’s bending of spacetime. The only problem with testing this was that it’s really difficult to observe stars just over the rim of the sun because, well, the sun’s pretty bright.
