  • The Jungle Tales of Tarzan
    The Jungle Tales Of Tarzan Written in 1919 by Edgar Rice Burroughs (1875-1950) This version originally published in 2005 by Infomotions, Inc. This document is distributed under the GNU Public License. 1 2 Table of contents Chapter 1 - Tarzan's First Love Chapter 2 - The Capture of Tarzan Chapter 3 - The Fight for the Balu Chapter 4 - The God of Tarzan Chapter 5 - Tarzan and the Black Boy Chapter 6 - The Witch-Doctor Seeks Vengeance Chapter 7 - The End of Bukawai Chapter 8 - Lion Chapter 9 - The Nightmare Chapter 10 - Battle for Teeka Chapter 11 - A Jungle Joke Chapter 12 - Rescues the Moon 3 4 Chapter 1 - Tarzan's First Love Teeka, stretched at luxurious ease in the shade of the tropical forest, presented, unquestionably, a most alluring picture of young, feminine loveliness. Or at least so thought Tarzan of the Apes, who squatted upon a low-swinging branch in a near-by tree and looked down upon her. Just to have seen him there, lolling upon the swaying bough of the jungle-forest giant, his brown skin mottled by the brilliant equatorial sunlight which percolated through the leafy canopy of green above him, his clean-limbed body relaxed in graceful ease, his shapely head partly turned in contemplative absorption and his intelligent, gray eyes dreamily devouring the object of their devotion, you would have thought him the reincarnation of some demigod of old. You would not have guessed that in infancy he had suckled at the breast of a hideous, hairy she-ape, nor that in all his conscious past since his parents had passed away in the little cabin by the landlocked harbor at the jungle's verge, he had known no other associates than the sullen bulls and the snarling cows of the tribe of Kerchak, the great ape.

  • NAKEDNESS on MARS by Woodrow Edgar Nichols, Jr
    NAKEDNESS ON MARS by Woodrow Edgar Nichols, Jr. INTRODUCTION When Edgar Rice Burroughs wrote A Princess of Mars and its sequels, he was writing the legal pornograpy of the day. He wrote what was the literary equivalent of a peep show, which we know he was fond of from his 1893 Chicago Columbian Exposition midway adventures. (See, ERBzine #1275, chpt. 6.) This is where Little Egypt became an international celebrity. Because no acts of sex are explicitly described in this series, this fact passes mainly unnoticed to the modern reader, but a discerning eye sees on almost every page naked people with their sexual organs fully exposed, female breasts enhanced in leather harnesses, near rape scenes, acts of perverse cruelty and sado-masochistic bondage, including descriptions of violence, beheadings, and dismemberings, that put Kill Bill: Part One to shame. This would have been shocking literature in its day. It was still shocking when C.S. Lewis followed suit in 1944 by having the inhabitants of Perelandra appear as naked as Adam and Eve, without fig leaves. I can only imagine the kind of moral outrage it must have induced in the minds of Puritanical prudes and Victorian moralists, so influential in politics and the arts at the time. I don’t have to imagine too hard. My mother, a typical Victorian prude who hated Hugh Hefner till the day she died, knew all about ERB. When I was in the fifth grade, around ten years old in 1957, I visited with a friend after school one day. My friend’s mother had been an artist for Disney in the days of Fantasia and was the opposite of my mother.

Her crew were lazily enjoying this respite from the arduous labor of rowing up stream. Three miles below them lay the Marjorie W. herself, quite ready to sail so soon as they should have clambered aboard and swung the long boat to its davits. Presently the attention of every man was drawn from his dreaming or his gossiping to the northern bank of the river. There, screaming at them in a cracked falsetto and with skinny arms outstretched, stood a strange apparition of a man.

  • The Tarzan Series of Edgar Rice Burroughs
    I The Tarzan Series of Edgar Rice Burroughs: Lost Races and Racism in American Popular Culture James R. Nesteby Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree in Doctor of Philosophy August 1978 Approved: © 1978 JAMES RONALD NESTEBY ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ¡ ¡ in Abstract The Tarzan series of Edgar Rice Burroughs (1875-1950), beginning with the All-Story serialization in 1912 of Tarzan of the Apes (1914 book), reveals deepseated racism in the popular imagination of early twentieth-century American culture. The fictional fantasies of lost races like that ruled by La of Opar (or Atlantis) are interwoven with the realities of racism, particularly toward Afro-Americans and black Africans. In analyzing popular culture, Stith Thompson's Motif-Index of Folk-Literature (1932) and John G. Cawelti's Adventure, Mystery, and Romance (1976) are utilized for their indexing and formula concepts. The groundwork for examining explanations of American culture which occur in Burroughs' science fantasies about Tarzan is provided by Ray R. Browne, publisher of The Journal of Popular Culture and The Journal of American Culture, and by Gene Wise, author of American Historical Explanations (1973). The lost race tradition and its relationship to racism in American popular fiction is explored through the inner earth motif popularized by John Cleves Symmes' Symzonla: A Voyage of Discovery (1820) and Edgar Allan Poe's The narrative of A. Gordon Pym (1838); Burroughs frequently uses the motif in his perennially popular romances of adventure which have made Tarzan of the Apes (Lord Greystoke) an ubiquitous feature of American culture.

My first recollection of Captain Carter is of the few months he spent at my father's home in Virginia, just prior to the opening of the civil war. I was then a child of but five years, yet I well remember the tall, dark, smooth-faced, athletic man whom I called Uncle Jack. He seemed always to be laughing; and he entered into the sports of the children with the same hearty good fellowship he displayed toward those pastimes in which the men and women of his own age indulged; or he would sit for an hour at a time entertaining my old grandmother with stories of his strange, wild life in all parts of the world.

  • Tarzan the Censored
    TARZAN THE CENSORED by Jerry L. Schneider Forward In "Edgar Rice Burroughs: Master of Adventure" by Richard A. Lupoff, the author stated that the Ballantine Books' versions of the Tarzan series were edited (evidently for political correctness), not the "all complete and unabridged" as Ballantine stated on the paperbacks. So, armed with the earliest hardcover editions that I owned in my collection (McClurg, A. L. Burt, Grosset & Dunlap, Burroughs Inc., and Canaveral Press) and post 1969 Ballantine editions, I scanned through them for discrepancies and changes. There were changes from the early hardcovers that I found in some of the paperbacks. Some of the books in the Tarzan series were edited for "political correctness" with regards to ethnicity dialects and derogatory terms. Hard to read dialects (or hard to typeset) were changed to an easier form (i.e. hit's changed to it's, heat to eat, and hour to our), while extremely derogatory terms such as Jew (see Tarzan and the Golden Lion) and nigger were altered or eliminated (not for the betterment of the story as the alteration in the words has lessened the impact the originals imparted to the reader—the level of anger toward the character who spoke the words has been lessened). The term "black" remained in place in some books but removed from others—no rhyme or reason to the changes. Esmeralda's original dialect in "Tarzan of the Apes" remained in place through 1969, then edited downward to an easier and friendlier version. Because of these changes, an in-depth look at the various editions of "Tarzan of the Apes" is shown below, while the other books in the Tarzan series are only compared by using an early hardcover version and the first version that was edited, usually the Ballantine edition.
