  • JUDITH MERRIL-PDF-Sep23-07.Pdf (368.7Kb)
    JUDITH MERRIL: AN ANNOTATED BIBLIOGRAPHY AND GUIDE Compiled by Elizabeth Cummins Department of English and Technical Communication University of Missouri-Rolla Rolla, MO 65409-0560 College Station, TX The Center for the Bibliography of Science Fiction and Fantasy December 2006 Table of Contents Preface Judith Merril Chronology A. Books B. Short Fiction C. Nonfiction D. Poetry E. Other Media F. Editorial Credits G. Secondary Sources About Elizabeth Cummins PREFACE Scope and Purpose This Judith Merril bibliography includes both primary and secondary works, arranged in categories that are suitable for her career and that are, generally, common to the other bibliographies in the Center for Bibliographic Studies in Science Fiction. Works by Merril include a variety of types and modes—pieces she wrote at Morris High School in the Bronx, newsletters and fanzines she edited; sports, westerns, and detective fiction and non-fiction published in pulp magazines up to 1950; science fiction stories, novellas, and novels; book reviews; critical essays; edited anthologies; and both audio and video recordings of her fiction and non-fiction. Works about Merill cover over six decades, beginning shortly after her first science fiction story appeared (1948) and continuing after her death (1997), and in several modes— biography, news, critical commentary, tribute, visual and audio records. This new online bibliography updates and expands the primary bibliography I published in 2001 (Elizabeth Cummins, “Bibliography of Works by Judith Merril,” Extrapolation, vol. 42, 2001). It also adds a secondary bibliography. However, the reasons for producing a research- based Merril bibliography have been the same for both publications. Published bibliographies of Merril’s work have been incomplete and often inaccurate.

  • HIV Twenty-Eight Years Later: What Is the Truth? Gary Null, Phd December 3, 2012
    HIV Twenty-Eight Years Later: What is the Truth? Gary Null, PhD December 3, 2012 In the May 4, 1984 issue of the prestigious journal Science, one of the most important research papers of the last quarter century was published. “Frequent Detection and Isolation of Cytopathic Retroviruses (HTLV-III) from Patients with AIDS and at Risk for AIDS” would rapidly become the medical Magna Carta for the entire gold rush to develop diagnostic methods to identify the presence of HIV in human blood and to invent pharmaceutical drugs and vaccines in a global war against AIDS. This paper, along with three others published in the same issue of Science, was written by Dr. Robert Gallo, then head of the Laboratory of Tumor Cell Biology (LTCB) at the National Cancer Institute (NCI) in Bethesda, Maryland, and his lead researcher Dr. Mikulas Popovic. To this day, this article continues to document the most cited research to prove the HIV hypothesis in scientific papers and places like the nation’s Centers of Disease Control (CDC) website. For virologists, molecular biologists and other infectious disease researchers, particularly those tied to the biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries and the national medical and health institutions, the news of Gallo’s discovery was manna rained down from heaven. All research into other possible causes for the AIDS crisis ended abruptly. As soon as the winds shifted away from earlier efforts to find the cause of AIDS —people’s lifestyles, immune suppressing illicit drug use and other health risks and illnesses that adversely affect the body’s immune system — to that of a single new virus, the case was closed.

  • Hamparian Thesis.Pdf (320.3Kb)
    Matt Hamparian 1 Women of Science Fiction in the 1970s Introduction Science fiction is the genre of possibility, and is nearly boundless. The only limitation is that of what the reader and writer can imagine. What drew me to both science fiction, and this research is what draws many to science fiction: exploring new worlds, new ideas, new species, but importantly the depths of the human mind. Science fiction of the 1970s was transformative for the genre, as there was a distinct shift on who was writing best selling and award winning novels. Men had long dominated science fiction, especially during the “golden age,” but during the 1970s published science fiction novels by women gained the attention of those who loved the genre. Women such as Ursula K. Le Guin, Joanna Russ, Kate Wilhelm, and James Tiptree Jr. (Allison B. Sheldon), all wrote award winning science fiction, but their stories also challenged readers with themes of equality. The question then arises, why did so many female authors take to science fiction to express their messages of equality during the 1970s? Author Suzy McKee Charnas, author of The Holdfast Chronicles wrote of this in the Khatru Symposium: Women in Science Fiction: “instead of having to ‘twist’ reality in order to create ‘realistic’ female characters in today’s totally unfree society, the sf writer can create the societies that would produce those characters” (Charnas 4). The women of science fiction in the 1970s were responding to an issue in science fiction: women were not represented accurately in text, nor where they given the same chance as their male counterparts.

Nur die Geschichte des Initiators des 1965 gegründeten Schriftstellerverbandes Science Fiction Writers of America SFWA wurde nicht in deutscher Übersetzung gefunden. Die Geschichten kennzeichnen das Qualitätsverständnis der SFWA. Dieses Verständnis von professioneller Qualität wird durch Platzierung der Geschichten in weiteren Anthologien bestätigt. Es setzte sich innerhalb des SFWA bis heute durch die Vergabe des Nebula Award fort. Der erste Herausgeber Robert Silverberg vertieft alsbald grundsätzliche Kritik am Genre, sonst bisher besonders vertreten durch Samuel Delany und Barry N. Malzberg, weitere folgen. Es zeigt sich nebenbei ein loses Subgenre von Science Fiction der Science Fiction, teils mit Selbstanwendungen gewohnter Metaphern, das die Nerven des Genres bloßlegt. Auch eine interne Genre-Satire zeigt sich, z. B. 1949 mit What mad universe von Frederic Brown und 1969-1973 mit den Autoren-Parodien des Amerikaners und Wahl-Engländers John T.
