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.

  • Akata Witch​ and ​Akata Warrior​ by Nnedi Okorafor
    MALIBU HIGH SCHOOL – ENGLISH DEPARTMENT SUMMER READING SUGGESTIONS (SUMMER OF 2020) Considering the unique circumstances we find ourselves in during these challenging times, English teachers did not see a viable way to address all of our students’ needs in the usual manner in terms of summer reading assignments. That being said, this summer there will be no formal reading assignments and these “suggestions” will not be tied to any academic grade or assignment when we get back to school in the fall. Instead, we encourage students to explore these purely optional selections as selected with thought and care by the individual teachers in our department. We release these suggestions in good faith and hope that our academic community might benefit in the joy of reading. - READ ON! - ​ The Malibu High School English Department Bonnie Thoreson Summer Reading Recommendations Akata Witch and Akata Warrior by Nnedi Okorafor. ​ ​ ​ I recently discovered Okorafor, a Nigerian-American fantasy and science fiction author, and I LOVE her writing. The Akata Witch series (she is currently writing the third book) features a 12 year old girl whose sense of not fitting in is turned on its head when she discovers a parallel magical world in which one’s supposed disabilities are actually the source of personal power. If you love Harry Potter, these books pose a very interesting contrast to Rowling’s magical universe. His Majesty’s Dragon (Temeraire series) by Naomi Novik. ​ These books reimagine the Napoleonic wars with dragons as the airforce. The dragon Temeraire is extremely intelligent, stubborn and fiercely bonded to his human companion.

    Function of Footnotes: A Study on Susanna Clarke’s Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell Liisa Lehtiö Pro Gradu thesis University of Tampere English Philology Spring 2008 Tampereen yliopisto Englantilainen filologia Kielitieteiden laitos LEHTIÖ, LIISA: Function of Footnotes – A Study on Susanna Clarke’s Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell. Pro gradu –tutkielma, 79 sivua Toukokuu 2008 TIIVISTELMÄ Tutkielmani aiheena on alaviitteiden merkitys kerronnassa Susanna Clarken romaanissa Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell . Tutkittavana oli pääasiassa alaviitteiden rooli: mitä tarkoitusta ne kirjassa palvelevat, kuinka ne voidaan luokitella ja lisäävätkö ne tarinan kerrontaan enemmän todellisuudentuntua vai sadunomaisuutta. Romaanin lajia määriteltäessä on pohdittu myös postmodernismin ja fantasian käsitteitä. Tutkimuksen alkuvaiheessa piti ensimmäiseksi pohtia, pitäisikö alaviitteitä ylipäänsä yrittää luokitella, erityisesti ottaen huomioon Clarken lähes kaksisataa erityylistä ja monilajista alaviitettä, joilla kaikilla oli vaihteleva merkitys tarinankerronnassa. Fiktion ja faktan jaottelua on myös tarkasteltu muun muassa Borgesin ja Pynchonin teorioiden valossa. Alaviitteiden luokittelussa on tässä tutkielmassa käytetty postmodernismin, fabuloinnin, metafiktion ja historiografian käsitteitä. Terminologian valinta oli paikoin ongelmallista, joten tutkielmani tarpeisiin on käytetty Hutcheonin ajatuksia postmodernista, Scholesin käsitystä fabuloinnista, Waugh’n metafiktion käsitettä sekä Graftonin määretelmää historiografiasta. Olen lisäksi käyttänyt Genetten intertekstuaalisuuden

  • Realistic Fantasy Or Fantastic Realism: on Defining the Genre in Susanna Clarke´S Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell
    Carl-William Ersgård Supervisor: Eivor Lindstedt EngK01 6 Januari 2010 Realistic Fantasy or Fantastic Realism: On Defining the Genre in Susanna Clarke´s Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell. Table of contents: 1. Introduction 1 2. Mirroring the world – Realism 2 3. Summoning the otherworld – Fantasy 9 4. Beyond reality – Fantasy and mimesis 15 5. Conclusion 18 6. Works Cited 20 Ersgård 1 Introduction: ”He hardly ever spoke of magic, and when he did it was like a history lesson and no one could bear to listen to him.” (1) With these, the first words of her novel Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell (2006), Susanna Clarke might as well have been describing the entirety of her work, not only one of its protagonists. The character described is Mr Gilbert Norrell, the first practical magician in England for centuries. He is one of a pair of magicians working side by side, and against each other, in the novel. The other, Mr Jonathan Strange, is Norrell´s opposite in every possible way. Where Norrell thinks all magic should be learnt from century-old-books, Jonathan Strange wants to experiment; where Norrell finds fairy-magic appalling and quite detestable, Jonathan Strange sees it as intriguing; and, perhaps most importantly, where Norrell wants to destroy all traces of the Raven King, the great magician- king of northern England, ever having existed, Jonathan Strange secretly houses a want to bring him back from the otherworld of Faerie. The quote above, together with the duality of the two main characters, create an excellent symbol for the whole novel. Whether or not the reader can “bear to listen” to Susanna Clarke´s narrative is, of course, a completely different question.
