    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.

All rights reserved. Preface With some hesitation at CBS, Cayuga Productions continued Twilight Zone for what would be its last season, with a thirty-six episode pipeline – a larger count than had been seen since its first year. Producer Bert Granet, who began producing in the previous season, was soon replaced by William Froug as he moved on to other projects. The fifth season has always been considered the weakest and, as one reviewer stated, “undisputably the worst.” Harsh criticism. The lopsidedness of Seasons 4 and 5 – with a smattering of episodes that egregiously deviated from the TZ mold, made for a series much-changed from the one everyone had come to know. A possible reason for this was an abundance of rather disdainful or at least less-likeable characters. Most were simply too hard to warm up to, or at the very least, identify with. But it wasn’t just TZ that was changing. Television was no longer as new a medium. “It was a period of great ferment,” said George Clayton Johnson. By 1963, the idyllic world of the 1950s was disappearing by the day. More grittily realistic and reality-based TV shows were imminent, as per the viewing audience’s demand and it was only a matter of time before the curtain came down on the kinds of shows everyone grew to love in the 50s.

  • Speculative Review0203.Pdf
    3 speculative review SPECULATIVE REVIEW, Volume 2 Number 3, appears once more to dissect some of the current crop of science-fiction and fantasy writing. This issue represents Operation Crifanac GIXXEI. Speculative Review is a magazine of review and speculation (really, now, that’s reasonable, isn't it?) about science-fiction and fantasy. It’s published by the Washington Science- Fiction Association, and edited by Dick Eney at 4^7 Hunt Rd., Alex­ andria, Virginia. Speculative Review is available for letters of comment, exchanges, or — if you care to throw money — at 3 for 25^ (3 for 2/ in sterling areas.) Reason I state that so prominently is that every other person who’s written in has grotched about the absence of any informa­ tion about how to get future issues of SpecRev. Now you know — unless you are somebody so estimable that we’ll send you copies no matter how much you protest, or you are reviewed in here; in that case, your real problem is how to avoid having SpecRev showered on you. That is, if there are further issues of Speculative Review. With the loss of four more titles in the last few months, we’ll have to move fast to get out later numbers while there’s still science-fiction and fantasy around to be speculated about. Unless the trend begins to turn in the opposite direction we may have to take up Redd Boggs’ suggestion and turn SpedRev into a cardzine. The most depressing thing about this most recent set of deaths is the nature of the victims: Doc Lowndes, whom almost everybody in the field has always praised for his accomplishments in putting out the quality he did on the budget he had; and Hans Stefan Santesson, whom we were all getting ready to start mentioning in the same breath with the aSF-E&SF- Goldsmith Amazing trinity.

  • 5. Tales of the Unexpected – Programme Notes
    TALES OF THE UNEXPECTED UK/1979-1988/25mins/12 An aristocratic lady trapping her head in an expensive slab of Henry Moore-like sculpture. A stray cat that may be the reincarnation of Franz Liszt. A beggar who carries a prized piece of tattooed art etched into his back. A vengeful wife taking gleeful control of her domineering husband's living brain. Anglia Television was the home of hit prime time game show 'Sale of the Century' and teatime budget casino 'Gambit', but for nine years from 1979 the unassuming regional ITV franchise went weird and wonderful. Suddenly, things got a whole lot more bizarre than Nicholas Parsons... The aforementioned oddness and more was sprung from the fervid imagination of author Roald Dahl. ITV's local regions were not averse to telefantasy, after 1976's 'Beasts' and Brian Clemens' Saturday night shocker 'Thriller' on ATV, Thames brought us 'Shadows of Fear' for adults and 'Shadows' for juvenile viewers; and HTV terrified nippers and parents alike with the Avebury-focused six-parter 'Children of the Stones'. So the commercial broadcaster was well-versed in small screen nightmares by the time the decision was taken to film 'Tales of the Unexpected' in and around Norwich. "I ought to warn you, if you haven't read any of my stories, that you may be a little disturbed by some of the things that happen in them". With these words - delivered with enormous gravity by a gaunt figure, with thinning hair, a sly sense of black humour, and plenty of surprises up his sleeves - Roald Dahl introduced himself to millions of new fans and increased his reputation as a master of the macabre several times over.

  • 2. Alfred Hitchcock Presents
    ALFRED HITCHCOCK PRESENTS USA/1962-1965/25mins approx./NC It’s fair to say that Sir Alfred Hitchcock is considered to this day as the number one director in cinema, by a majority of film buffs, critics, and industry insiders. At time of writing, his outré 1958 classic VERTIGO is rated as the greatest movie ever made, that is if you accept the ten-yearly filmmakers-and-journalists survey conducted regularly by ‘Sight & Sound’ magazine as a reliable benchmark. More than three decades after he left us, Hitch remains a palpable presence and influence - in recent years we’ve seen biopics both reverent (HITCHCOCK, Sacha Gervasi 2012) and contentiously legend-debunking (THE GIRL, Julian Jarrold 2013), while releases as diverse as STOKER (Park Chan-wook 2013), DISTURBIA (D. J. Caruso 2007) and HORRIBLE BOSSES (Seth Gordon 2011) signify the continuing sway of the Hitchcock legacy. If one accepts Hitchcock’s peak years as running from 1954 to 1960, i.e. REAR WINDOW through to PSYCHO almost without a fumble or flaw, then how all the more remarkable it is that during that productive and artistically satisfying period, the great man managed to find time to embark upon a television series. ‘Alfred Hitchcock Presents’ aired on CBS (and later, NBC) for seven successful seasons from 1955, after which ‘The Alfred Hitchcock Hour’ played through to the mid-sixties. The show’s title may hint that this was an opportunity for Hitch to further his ‘brand’ and name recognition (famously, of course, he’s often cited as being one of that tiny handful of directors that “the general public might have actually heard of”); yet this was to prove a much more hands-on operation, as Hitchcock appeared on camera to introduce the shows - usually in some wild wig/costume, or incongruous setting, and handling elaborate props - and, more importantly, helmed seventeen of the episodes himself.

I enjoy reading short stories, especially those that have a surprising ending. I find both O’Henry and Roald Dahl quite successful in their short stories. After reading many short stories of the two, I realized that there are some differences between the abovementioned writers. After outlining the differences, I decided to examine these in further detail. As explained in the extended essay, the main difference between the two writers is their use of characterization. Roald Dahl makes his characters’ traits quite obvious, whereas O’Henry chooses to convey this in between the lines. This difference, added with their style creates a difference in their short stories. Since O’Henry has a more closed tone compared to Roald Dahl, the surprise factor in their twisted endings also differs from each other. The main separation however is in their use of characterization. Three short stories by both writers have been chosen. The reason why these short stories have been chosen is because the differences between the writers mentioned above are quite clear in these short stories.

  • OPUNTIA 338 Early April 2016
    OPUNTIA 338 Early April 2016 Opuntia is published by Dale Speirs, Calgary, Alberta. It is posted on www.efanzines.com and www.fanac.org. My e-mail address is: [email protected] When sending me an emailed letter of comment, please include your name and town in the message. AROUND COWTOWN: BOWMONT PARK 2016-03-27 photos by Dale Speirs Bowmont Park in northwest Calgary is a natural area on the north bank of the Bow River between the suburbs of Bowness and Montgomery. They were once independent villages before being swallowed up by Calgary in 1961 and ceasing to have any independent existence. The park is about ten kilometres long and a hundred metres wide, bounded on its north side by the suburbs of Silver Springs and Varsity Estates. Those two are developer-built suburbs dating from the 1970s. Varsity is adjacent on its far boundary to the University of Calgary, hence its name. Although Silver Springs sounds like a made-up developer name, it was actually the pioneer name when it was cattle ranches, a reference to numerous springs along what is now Bowmont Park. The photo at right shows one of the springs. We are having an early spring after a record warm winter. My lilacs began budding out on March 18 and the lawn started greening up a few days later. I went out to Bowmont Park on Easter Sunday, where the prairie anemones were starting to bloom. The section of the park I visited was Silver Springs Coulee. Anemone patens in bloom on the slope of Silver Springs Coulee.
