  • 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.

  • Mythopoeia, Colonialism and Redress in the Morobe Goldfields in Papua New Guinea
    GOLD, TADPOLES AND JESUS IN THE MANGER: MYTHOPOEIA, COLONIALISM AND REDRESS IN THE MOROBE GOLDFIELDS IN PAPUA NEW GUINEA DANIELE MORETTI In 1936 Beatrice Blackwood became the first ethnographer to work with the Anga people of Papua New Guinea (PNG).1 In her own words, her aim was to learn “what [she] could of the life of a modern Stone Age people..., for in this way an ethnologist can sometimes fill up some of the gaps in the archaeological record” (Blackwood 1939: 11). Of course, this attempt at anthropological time travel (Fabian 1983) was only made possible by the “pacification” of a small number of Upper Watut villages following the discovery of gold in the neighbouring Wau-Bulolo Valley and Mount Kaindi over the previous decade. For the Anga of the Bulolo District, the opening of the Morobe Goldfields in the 1920s marked the beginning of a new colonial epoch. Beyond that, the event encouraged prospectors and administration to push inland in search of similar strikes, thus promoting the spread of colonial power, not just to the core of Anga country but also to the wider Highlands region. Between the 1920s and PNG national independence in 1975 the Morobe Goldfields produced great mineral riches that transformed the townships of Wau and Bulolo into booming industrial enclaves and sustained colonial expansion throughout the Mandated Territory of New Guinea (a political unit subsequently united with Papua under colonial rule). Yet little of this wealth was spent for the benefit of the Upper Watut or of the Anga more generally. What is more, just as independence approached and growing numbers of Anga became involved in the Goldfields’ economy, the Bulolo District’s large-scale mining industry ground to a halt and local employment opportunities and services declined significantly.

  • Lost Races, Which in Turn Are Often Utopian Fictions
    1 About Catalogue VIII We visited with George Locke recently, who’s doing well, and picked up six boxes of Lost Race novels. The following catalogue, our ninth, is the result. We’ve taken a little time out to read a chapter here and there of some of the stories herein. Some are pretty good, some are quite poor. Either way, they deserve to be remembered. Many of the titles herewith are genuinely rare. We’ve located copies of all of them somewhere, mostly in libraries. Many are in Blieler’s Checklist, nearly all are in Locke’s Spectrum, as they should be as George’s collection is where most of the copies have been plucked from. John Clute and John Grants’ Encyclopaedia has been essential too in the cataloguing, as has Lloyd Currey’s extensive stock. George collected these over several decades, and it would be an injustice to not commemorate that in some way. The very fact that each title has included a brief synopsis is testament to the import of George’s contribution to the genre. There are 28 items in this catalogue, all revolving around Lost Races, which in turn are often utopian fictions. Supplementary to these items are a few dozen books grouped into one lot primarily for ease of cataloguing and value. They would make an excellent starter for a collector with an interest in the area. The Lost Race subgenre has certainly tailed off over the last few decades. Greater exploration beyond and within earth’s bounds, satellite mapping and easier communication has meant that the notion of finding a lost race on or within earth is less plausible and stories therefore become more twee.

  • The Lost World of the Administrative Procedure Act: a Literature Review
    The Lost World of the Administrative Procedure Act: A Literature Review Christopher J. Walker CSAS Working Paper 21-08 The APA at 75 – The George Mason Law Review‘s Third Annual Symposium on Administrative Law This article will appear in Volume 28:3 of the George Mason Law Review Expected publication: Spring 2021 – https://lawreviewgmu.wpengine.com/ THE LOST WORLD OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEDURE ACT: A LITERATURE REVIEW Christopher J. Walker* 69 GEORGE MASON LAW REVIEW (forthcoming 2021) Despite dramatic changes in the regulatory state over the last seventy-five years, Westlaw reports that Congress has only amended the Administrative Procedure Act (APA) sixteen times since its enactment in 1946. But that does not mean the APA has remained unchanged. The statutory text bears little resemblance to modern administrative law doctrine and regulatory practice. In response to developments in administrative governance, federal courts have substantially refashioned the APA’s requirements for administrative procedure and judicial review of agency action. As part of the George Mason Law Review’s Administrative Procedure Act at 75 Symposium, this Essay seeks to chronicle these mismatches between statutory text and doctrinal and regulatory reality. It focuses on the APA’s administrative procedure and judicial review provisions, as well as key aspects of presidential administration that operate outside of the APA. Through presenting this annotation and literature review of the lost world of the APA, the Essay identifies potential areas for further legislative reform, judicial engagement, and scholarly attention—to better conform administrative practice to the text of the APA.
