2019-05-06 Catalog P
Pulp-related books and periodicals available from Mike Chomko for May and June 2019 Dianne and I had a wonderful time in Chicago, attending the Windy City Pulp & Paper Convention in April. It’s a fine show that you should try to attend. Upcoming conventions include Robert E. Howard Days in Cross Plains, Texas on June 7 – 8, and the Edgar Rice Burroughs Chain of Friendship, planned for the weekend of June 13 – 15. It will take place in Oakbrook, Illinois. Unfortunately, it doesn’t look like there will be a spring edition of Ray Walsh’s Classicon. Currently, William Patrick Maynard and I are writing about the programming that will be featured at PulpFest 2019. We’ll be posting about the panels and presentations through June 10. On June 17, we’ll write about this year’s author signings, something new we’re planning for the convention. Check things out at www.pulpfest.com. Laurie Powers biography of LOVE STORY MAGAZINE editor Daisy Bacon is currently scheduled for release around the end of 2019. I will be carrying this book. It’s entitled QUEEN OF THE PULPS. Please reserve your copy today. Recently, I was contacted about carrying the Armchair Fiction line of books. I’ve contacted the publisher and will certainly be able to stock their books. Founded in 2011, they are dedicated to the restoration of classic genre fiction. Their forté is early science fiction, but they also publish mystery, horror, and westerns. They have a strong line of lost race novels. Their books are illustrated with art from the pulps and such. -

Discussion About Edwardian/Pulp Era Science Fiction
Science Fiction Book Club Interview with Jess Nevins July 2019 Jess Nevins is the author of “the Encyclopedia of Fantastic Victoriana” and other works on Victoriana and pulp fiction. He has also written original fiction. He is employed as a reference librarian at Lone Star College-Tomball. Nevins has annotated several comics, including Alan Moore’s The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, Elseworlds, Kingdom Come and JLA: The Nail. Gary Denton: In America, we had Hugo Gernsback who founded science fiction magazines, who were the equivalents in other countries? The sort of science fiction magazine that Gernsback established, in which the stories were all science fiction and in which no other genres appeared, and which were by different authors, were slow to appear in other countries and really only began in earnest after World War Two ended. (In Great Britain there was briefly Scoops, which only 20 issues published in 1934, and Tales of Wonder, which ran from 1937 to 1942). What you had instead were newspapers, dime novels, pulp magazines, and mainstream magazines which regularly published science fiction mixed in alongside other genres. The idea of a magazine featuring stories by different authors but all of one genre didn’t really begin in Europe until after World War One, and science fiction magazines in those countries lagged far behind mysteries, romances, and Westerns, so that it wasn’t until the late 1940s that purely science fiction magazines began appearing in Europe and Great Britain in earnest. Gary Denton: Although he was mainly known for Sherlock Holmes, Arthur Conan Doyle also created the Professor Challenger stories like The Lost World. -

Apropiaciones Lovecraftianas De Temas Teosóficos
Chaves / Melancolia 3 (2018) pp. 35-59 APROPIACIONES LOVECRAFTIANAS DE TEMAS TEOSÓFICOS ISSN 2526-1096 [email protected] Enviado: 10/0518 Aceptado: 19/08/18 RESUMEN Se abordan en este ensayo algunas de las referencias teosóficas en la narrativa fantástica del escritor norteamericano H.P. Lovecraft, surgidas tanto de sus lecturas de autores teosóficos como W. Scott-Elliot, así como de sus conversaciones con colegas literatos conocedores de esas doctrinas esotéricas, como E. Hoffman Price. Se pone énfasis en dos temas: la antropogénesis blavatskiana y el mito del Libro de Dzyan, en términos de su impacto en el universo narrativo de Lovecraft. PALABRAS CLAVE: teosofía, H.P. Lovecraft, literatura fantástica. 35 Chaves / Melancolia 3 (2018) pp. 35-59 LOVECRAFTIAN APPROPRIATIONS OF THEOSOPHICAL SUBJECTS ABSTRACT: Some of the theosophical references in the fantastic narrative of the American writer H.P. Lovecraft are addressed in this essay, arising both from his readings of theosophical authors such as W. Scott-Elliot, as well as from his conversations with literary colleagues who were familiar with these esoteric doctrines, as E. Hoffman Price. Emphasis is placed on two themes: Blavatskian anthropogenesis and the myth of the Book of Dzyan, in terms of its impact on Lovecraft's narrative universe. KEY WORDS: Theosophy, H.P. Lovecraft, Fantastic Literature. José Ricardo Chaves es Doctor en literatura comparada por la UNAM. Es miembro del Centro de Poética del Instituto de Investigaciones Filológicas, y docente en la Facultad de Filosofía y Letras, con un trabajo enfocado sobre todo al estudio del romanticismo y del esoterismo en el siglo XIX y principios del XX, así como a la literatura fantástica de esa época, tanto en Europa como en América. -

Pseudoscience and Science Fiction Science and Fiction
Andrew May Pseudoscience and Science Fiction Science and Fiction Editorial Board Mark Alpert Philip Ball Gregory Benford Michael Brotherton Victor Callaghan Amnon H Eden Nick Kanas Geoffrey Landis Rudi Rucker Dirk Schulze-Makuch Ru€diger Vaas Ulrich Walter Stephen Webb Science and Fiction – A Springer Series This collection of entertaining and thought-provoking books will appeal equally to science buffs, scientists and science-fiction fans. It was born out of the recognition that scientific discovery and the creation of plausible fictional scenarios are often two sides of the same coin. Each relies on an understanding of the way the world works, coupled with the imaginative ability to invent new or alternative explanations—and even other worlds. Authored by practicing scientists as well as writers of hard science fiction, these books explore and exploit the borderlands between accepted science and its fictional counterpart. Uncovering mutual influences, promoting fruitful interaction, narrating and analyzing fictional scenarios, together they serve as a reaction vessel for inspired new ideas in science, technology, and beyond. Whether fiction, fact, or forever undecidable: the Springer Series “Science and Fiction” intends to go where no one has gone before! Its largely non-technical books take several different approaches. Journey with their authors as they • Indulge in science speculation—describing intriguing, plausible yet unproven ideas; • Exploit science fiction for educational purposes and as a means of promoting critical thinking; • Explore the interplay of science and science fiction—throughout the history of the genre and looking ahead; • Delve into related topics including, but not limited to: science as a creative process, the limits of science, interplay of literature and knowledge; • Tell fictional short stories built around well-defined scientific ideas, with a supplement summarizing the science underlying the plot. -

D.Y.N. Freaks by Valeria
D.Y.N. Freaks By Valeria Introduction A normal world on the surface, a dark world beneath and a completely insane world beyond. This world has a long history and you find yourself at the end of it all, though you and everyone else in this world may not yet know it. The world of D.Y.N Freaks is one beset by Evil Gods. It appears to be a normal Earth to most of the several billion humans living on it and yet in truth it is constantly under threat from an infinite variety of monsters, aliens, dark gods and cruel things from outside our reality. To combat these threats, many secret organisations have been formed by humans. Some fight with advanced technology, some with occult magicks and others with both or stranger things entirely. And yet there are also some humans who seek to join the various monstrous overlords that seek to control or destroy our world or who seek to take advantage of them. For both the good and evil sides in this eternal conflict, events involving the monsters other than mankind are known as Hell Hazards. Our story focuses on the events surrounding just one of these groups, a medical associated known as Asylum. Seemingly one of countless monster hunting groups, Asylum is finding itself embroiled in a conflict against the 13 Horrors. The Horrors are beings known as Mages, humans who have come into contact with and make a contract with a Fragment, a piece of an Evil God. One of the Mages works for Asylum, fighting against its kin but the rest range from madmen to those directly working for the creator of these Fragments, the dark god called Nyarlathotep. -

JUMP WISH-LIST Rules/Notes: Settings
JUMP WISH-LIST Rules/Notes: ● This list is solely for settings that don’t have jumps made yet. ● No jumps you want to see redone, I’m not going to go down this path. If there is any such setting mentioned on list, then as soon as it is pointed out to me, I’ll remove it. ● Settings already claimed will be either removed from list or have claim noted. I’ll accept info about claims only from the jump-maker who claimed it. ● I hope to maintain this list in such way that /tg/, SB and QQ communities can all check it out. If you don’t like something on it, just ignore it. After all, if jump is being made doesn’t mean you have to use it. Furthermore, we all have different tastes, be mindful of that. ● Fanfics will be listed separately. Some people like the idea of such jumps, some don’t. I might end up removing this section altogether just because it is so difficult to decide if certain fanfic would be acceptable for being turned into jump or not. ● Settings will be listed alphabetically within a genre, by their official name. Any other names will be included after that one. Please include genre and medium with any suggestions (e.g. KultHorror - Tabletop RPG; The Culture - Science Fiction - Novel) ● Rule of thumb – recommend settings that you would want to visit in order to interact with characters and storylines, not in order to get specific perks/powers/items. Settings: 0-9 ● 100, The (SF - TV Series) ● 300 (movies) ● 3x3 Eyes (manga) ● 7th Heaven (TV series) ● 9 (movie) ● 100 Bullets (vertigo) ● 11eyes (VN/anime) ● 2 Broke Girls (TV Series)
