  • 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.

    Tarzan's Quest By Edgar Rice Burroughs Tarzan's Quest 1. THE PRINCESS SBOROV "My dear Jane, you know everyone." "Not quite, Hazel; but one sees everyone in the Savoy." "Who is that woman at the second table to our right?—the one who spoke so cordially. There is something very familiar about her—I'm sure I've seen her before." "You probably have. Don't you remember Kitty Krause?" "O-oh, yes; now I recall her. But she went with an older crowd." "Yes, she's a full generation ahead of us; but Kitty'd like to forget that and have everyone else forget it." "Let's see—she married Peters, the cotton king, didn't she?" "Yes, and when he died he left her so many millions she didn't have enough fingers to count 'em on; so the poor woman will never know how rich she is." "Is that her son with her?" "Son, my dear! That's her new husband." "Husband? Why, she's old enough to—" "Yes, of course; but you see he's a prince, and Kitty always was— er—well, ambitious." "Yes, I recall now—something of a climber; but she climbed pretty high, even in aristocratic old Baltimore, with those Peters millions." "But she's an awfully good soul, Hazel. I'm really very fond of her. There isn't anything she wouldn't do for a friend, and underneath that one silly complex of hers is a heart of gold." "And kind to her mother! If anyone ever says I'm good-hearted, I'll —" "S-sh, Hazel; she's coming over." The older woman, followed by her husband, swooped down upon them.

  • Back to the Stone Age
    BACK TO THE STONE AGE But Jason Gridley shook his head. “The rest of you go on,” he said. “I will remain in Pellucidar until I have solved the mystery.” Von Horst, von Horst— where are you now, Bill? Can you see that endless sun on high— can you sing those jazz- tune songs you loved and hear me calling? Or are your BACK TO THE STONE AGE dusty bones in some killer-cat’s lair and a ghost voice your only answer? PROLOGUE HE tale of the pioneer flight of the giant Zeppe - Tlin O-220 has already been told. In the Log Book of Great Adventures, written deep in red, have been inscribed the perils and privations, the victories and defeats, of those gallant companions from this land of ours who braved the mysteries of Pellucidar. Pellucidar — mocked by smug scientists who blind themselves to the proofs that our Earth is a hollow sphere, containing a habitable world within its interior! Pellucidar — scorned and derided by timid savants who fear to see beyond their own knotted brows, scoffing that here is no great opening at the frozen poles, that only two plus two makes four! But there were men of broader vision, of deeper un - derstanding, in that prize crew of the Zeppelin O-220; One was a tall man with mighty shoulders who walked with a cat’s soft tread; as Lord Greystoke he was known in London, though the creatures of the tropic wild called him Tarzan of the Apes. A second was Jason Gridley, the American explorer who financed the expedition.

  • Tarzán, Y El Imperio Perdido
    Edgar Rice Burroughs Tarzán, y el imperio perdido I Nkima danzaba excitadamente sobre el hombro moreno y desnudo de su amo. Parloteaba y chillaba mirando alternativamente a Tarzán a la cara, como interrogándole, y después hacia la jungla. -Algo se acerca, bwana -dijo Muviro, subjefe de los waziri-. Nkima lo ha oído. -Y Tarzán -declaró el hombre mono. -El oído del gran bwana es tan fino como el de Bara, el antílope prosiguió Muviro. -Si no lo hubiera sido, Tarzán hoy no estaría aquí dijo el hombre mono con una sonrisa-. No habría llegado a la edad adulta si Kala, su madre, no le hubiera enseñado a emplear todos los sentidos que Mulungu le dio. -¿Qué es lo que se acerca? -preguntó Muviro. -Un grupo de hombres -respondió Tarzán. -Tal vez no son amistosos -sugirió el africano-. ¿Aviso a los guerreros? Tarzán miró alrededor del pequeño campamento donde una veintena de hombres luchadores estaban preparando su colación nocturna y vio que, como era costumbre entre los waziri, tenían sus armas preparadas y a mano. -No -dijo-. Creo que será innecesario, ya que esta gente que se acerca no viene con sigilo como lo haría un enemigo, ni su número es tan grande como para que les temamos. Pero Nkima, pesimista nato, esperaba lo peor, y a medida que el grupo se acercaba su nerviosismo iba en aumento. Bajó de un salto del hombro de Tarzán al suelo y dio varios brincos; luego, volvió junto a Tarzán, le cogió el brazo y trató de hacerle poner en pie. -¡Corre, corre! -gritó en el lenguaje de los monos-.

  • The Beasts of Tarzan 3
    1 Kidnapped “The entire affair is mysterious,” said D’Arnot. “Neither the police nor the military investigators have the faintest idea how it happened. All that anyone knows is that Nikolai Rokoff has escaped.” John Clayton, Lord Greystoke—who had been “Tarzan of the Apes”—sat in silence in the apartment of his friend, Lieutenant Paul D’Arnot, in Paris. The escape brought back many memories, for the ape-man’s testimony had sent his archene- my to a French prison for life. Rokoff had gone to great lengths to try to kill Tarzan before, and hav- ing escaped, would likely now try twice as hard. Tarzan had recently brought his wife and infant son to London to get away from the rainy season on their vast estates in Uziri—the land of the fierce Waziri warriors whose broad African domains the ape-man had once ruled. He had just arrived to visit D’Arnot, but the news about Rokoff made him want to return immediately to London. “I do not fear for myself, Paul,” he said at last. 1 2 EDGAR RICE BURROUGHS “Rokoff has tried and failed many times to kill me. But he knows that he could hurt me most through my son or my wife. I must return to guard them until Rokoff is recaptured—or dead.” As these two talked in Paris, two dark, sinister- looking men were talking in a little cottage on the outskirts of London. One was bearded; the other had only a few days’ growth, and his face was pale from long confinement indoors.

Almost omnipotent, he, in the realm of his people. Dango, Sheeta, even Numa the mighty were as naught to the pachyderm. For a hundred years he had come and gone up and down the land that had trembled to the comings and the goings of his forebears for countless ages. In peace he had lived with Dango the hyena, Sheeta the leopard and Numa the lion. Man alone had made war upon him. Man, who holds the unique distinction among created things of making war on all living creatures, even to his own kind. Man, the ruthless; man, the pitiless; man, the most hated living organism that Nature has evolved. Always during the long hundred years of his life, Tantor had known man.
