  • Beyond Space Colonialism
    Andréu - 1 Lydia I. Andreu Dr. Robert W. Rudnicki ENGL 480 14 November 2013 Beyond Space Colonialism: Otherness in Orson Scott Card’s Speaker for the Dead As a sequel to the much acclaimed Ender’s Game , Speaker for the Dead presents a future where most of humanity’s actions are a result of dealing with the guilt of destroying the only other known intelligent life form in the universe, the “buggers.” Taking place some three thousand years after the events of Ender’s Game , the sequel explores the social implications of Andrew “Ender” Wiggin’s actions, as well as the results of space colonization. The society presented in the novel is composed of “the Hundred Worlds,” planets colonized by humans and bound by “ansible” communication and the laws of the “Starways Congress.” When Portuguese colonizers discover the “pequeninos” or “piggies,” intelligent alien life forms in the newly colonized Lusitania, humanity is given the opportunity to coexist with aliens and make amends for the destruction of the buggers. However, soon the inability of humans to understand the seemingly brutal customs of the pequeninos threatens to trigger another alien war. The discovery of the pequeninos and the resulting relations between them and the humans reflect old colonial anxieties that were present during Euro-American colonization. These anxieties result from the age-old fear of “otherness.” In Speaker for the Dead , otherness not only takes the form of an alien “other,” but Card takes it one step further by exploring different levels of foreignness outside and within a community. Individuals in the novel are not merely foreign or alien because they belong to a different race or community, but because societal barriers intended to protect Andréu - 2 them (and the community) result in the inability to communicate effectively, and thus in foreignness.

Swartz The Hugo Awards originally were called the Science Fiction Achievement Awards and first were given out at Philcon II, the World Science Fiction Con- vention of 1953, held in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The second oldest--and most prestigious--awards in the field, they quickly were nicknamed the Hugos (officially since 1958), in honor of Hugo Gernsback (1884 -1967), founder of Amazing Stories, the first professional magazine devoted entirely to science fiction. No awards were given in 1954 at the World Science Fiction Con in San Francisco, but they were restored in 1955 at the Clevention (in Cleveland) and included six categories: novel, novelette, short story, magazine, artist, and fan magazine.

  • Ender's Game Took the Sf World by Storm, Sweeping the Awards
    Ender’s Game Andrew "Ender" Wiggin thinks he is playing computer simulated war games; he is, in fact, engaged in something far more desperate. The result of genetic experimentation, Ender may be the military genius Earth desperately needs in a war against an alien enemy seeking to destroy all human life. The only way to find out is to throw Ender into ever harsher training, to chip away and find the diamond inside, or destroy him utterly. Ender Wiggin is six years old when it begins. He will grow up fast. But Ender is not the only result of the experiment. The war with the Buggers has been raging for a hundred years, and the quest for the perfect general has been underway almost as long. Ender's two older siblings, Peter and Valentine, are every bit as unusual as he is, but in very different ways. While Peter was too uncontrollably violent, Valentine very nearly lacks the capability for violence altogether. Neither was found suitable for the military's purpose. But they are driven by their jealousy of Ender, and by their inbred drive for power. Peter seeks to control the political process, to become a ruler. Valentine's abilities turn more toward the subtle control of the beliefs of commoner and elite alike, through powerfully convincing essays. Hiding their youth and identities behind the anonymity of the computer networks, these two begin working together to shape the destiny of Earth-an Earth that has no future at all if their brother Ender fails. Newsday said of this novel "Card has done strong work before, but this could be the book to break him out of the pack." It was.

  • A Science-Fiction Sampler
    A Science-Fiction Sampler Matthew Menning The Fox network's popular television drama, "The X-Files," is concerned with the quest of two FBI agents for the truth in the face of the apparently unexplainable. In a recent episode, Agent Scully, the team's skeptic, struggled with terminal cancer. Lying on her hospital bed, she spoke with her partner about her illness. As an adult, she said, she put her faith in science and her desire for truth. When science and logic failed to explain a mystery, she was willing to entertain the possibility of anything from alien contact to government conspiracy. Not until cancer brought her close to death did she reconsider faith in a God who is present in this world and who offers strength to those in need. For Agent Scully, accepting the presence of a God she could not explain and did not understand required more courage than battles with terrorists or alien abduction. Scully risked her objectivity and discovered a peace and potency that enabled her to endure her cancer until she was healed. Agent Scully's dilemma is not unfamiliar. Since the Renaissance, scientists have astounded us with their discoveries. That which was unexplainable has become increasingly mundane. Humans have walked on the moon, come to understand the workings of subatomic particles and discovered the secrets of heating food using microwaves. Most of us do not understand the science behind these marvels, but accept the fact that scientists do, and could explain them to us if we wished to learn. For many of us, it has become increasingly difficult to believe that there is anything science cannot explain, given time and resources .

  • University-Industry (Et Al.) Interaction in Science Fiction
    Fiction lagging behind or non-fiction defending the indefensible? University-industry (et al.) interaction in science fiction Joaquín M. Azagra-Caro1,*, Laura González-Salmerón2, Pedro Marques1 1 INGENIO (CSIC-UPV), Universitat Politècnica de València, Camino de Vera s/n, E-46022 Valencia, Spain 2 Faculty of Medieval and Modern Languages, University of Oxford ABSTRACT University-industry interaction has supporters and detractors in the scholarly literature. Whereas policymakers have mainly joined the former, science fiction authors have predominantly enrolled the latter. We illustrate how the genre has been critical to university-industry interaction via the analysis of the most positively acclaimed novels from the 1970s to date. We distinguish the analytical dimensions of type of conflict, and innovation helices involved other than university (industry, government, society). By doing so, we merge two streams of literature that had not encountered before: university-industry interaction and representations of science in popular culture. A methodological novelty is the creation of an objective corpus of the literature to increase external validity. Insights include the relevance of the time context, with milder views or disinterest on university-industry interaction in science fiction works after the passage of the Bayh-Dole Act; and the lack of an academic or policy narrative about the benefits of university-industry interaction so convincing as to permeate into popular culture. Discourse is crucial for legitimising ideas, and university-industry interaction may have not found the most appropriate yet. Keywords: university-industry interaction, conflicts, representations of science * Corresponding author. Tel.: +34963877007; fax: +34963877991. E-mail address: [email protected] 1 1.

    Daniel Boone Regional Library Book Discussion Kit DBRL One READ Selection 2005 Callaway County / Columbia / Southern Boone County Public Libraries www.dbrl.org Ender’s Game by Orson Scott Card Page 1 Tips for Book Discussions from Washington Center for the Book at Seattle Public Library Reading Critically Books that make excellent choices for discussion groups have a good plot, well-drawn characters, and a polished style. These books usually present the author’s view of an important truth and not infrequently send a message to the reader. Good books for discussion move the reader and stay in the mind long after the book is read and the discussion is over. These books can be read more than once, and each time we learn something new. Reading for a book discussion—whether you are the leader or simply a participant—differs from reading purely for pleasure. As you read a book chosen for a discussion, ask questions and mark down important pages you might want to refer back to. Make notes like, "Is this significant?" or "Why does the author include this?" Making notes as you go slows down your reading but gives you a better sense of what the book is really about and saves you the time of searching out important passages later. Obviously, asking questions as you go means you don't know the answer yet, and often you never do discover the answers. But during discussion of your questions, others may provide insight for you. Don't be afraid to ask hard questions because often the author is presenting difficult issues for that very purpose.
