  • City of Athletes by Theo Deutinger Plans and Maps Are a Paradoxical
    City of Athletes by Theo Deutinger Plans and maps are a paradoxical couple that needs each other to exist. The City of Athletes reports from the plan as a departure point and the map as its aim, and what happens when a hammer thrower appears on this stage. Map versus plan The act of map making seems to be fundamentally different from the act of planning. While mapping is the attempt to depict an interpretation of something that already exists, planning is the effort to imagine a potential future. Yet, neither maps nor plans represent reality. First of all, maps and plans are simplifications of reality; they deconstruct the world and reassemble selected components. Maps, one might think, still reassemble information closer to reality, but if one considers e.g. metro maps, this is far from true. Moreover maps not even have to depict real worlds as is proven by Thomas More, who was able to draw a map of his Utopia and Barbara Remington and Pauline Baynes, who illustrated Middle Earth, the central continent of the imagined world, in which The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit are taking place. These maps are as fictional as urban master-plans. The main difference between a map and a plan lies not even in the intention of the one who designs it but in the intention of the beholder. Basically, a map does not want to become anything but represents something that already exists; either the mapped objects are already realized, as in the case of city maps, or the mapped objects are not intended to be built at all, similar to utopias.

From the Archives of Hildifons Took At this year‟s Corflu, David Bratman lamented the lack of original fanzine names in the past, which made me relook at the name of this particular publication. Bernie Zuber, a prolific correspondent and founder of the Tolkien Fellowships in Southern California during the late seventies, ended his letters “In Fellowship.” Taking the penname of Hildifons Took some time before, I decided to end my letters “In Tuckborough.” After moving from Maine to Missouri in 1981, I ended my letters “Away From Tuckborough.” This is the roundabout pedigree of the naming of this review. As stated in The Return of the King, Appendix D, “Not many ancient documents were preserved in the Shire.

The Red King by Victor Kelleher, Viking 1989, 166pp The binding says "Viking Kestrel" - this seems to be a juvenile book-club edition, no price on the dust jacket, which has impressive wrap-around art by Max Hyman. It's the 2nd printing, and pseudo-sticker has been over-printed on the dust jacket dated 1990 and noting that the book was shortlisted by the Children's Book Council of Australia. This does not seem to be Lewis Carroll's Red King, or if it is, he's having a fascist nightmare - this Red King rules by the power of the fear of the "red fever" disease he can impose on a dissenter.
