Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The April 1965 issue of "The Magazine of Fantasy and Science Fiction "is a landmark in the history of science fiction because it was the first issue of that publication to have been edited by Edward L. Ferman, who is widely recognized as one of the outstanding editors in the field.This issue marked the first time that a cartoon by Gahan Wilson was published. The issue is further distinguished by Poul Anderson s Arsenal Port, the second in his trilogy of space privateers; an early story from Robert Rohrer, Keep Them Happy; Gerald Jonas s poem Imaginary Numbers in a Real Garden; Basil Davenport s thoughtful review of a number of contemporary books including Isaac Bashevis Singer s "Short Friday "and William Golding s "The Spire; "TP Caravan s wry relation of a Blind Date; Roderic C. Hodgins s The History of Doctor Frost; Jane Beauclerk s evocative Lord Moon; Isaac Asimov s discussion of The Certainty of Uncertainty and his poignant Eyes Do More Than See; and Len Guttridge s whimsical Aunt Millicent at the Races. As in the previous facsimile in this series, the editors add specially invited memoirs from Poul Anderson, Theodore Thomas, Isaac Asimov, Robert Rohrer, Roderic C. Hodgins, Jane Beauclerk, Len Guttridge, and Bert Tanner together with their own observations and commentary to create a volume of unusual merit."

This book was released on 2023-09-05 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How women and feminism helped to shape science fiction in America. Runner-up for the Hugo Best Related Book Award (2003) The Battle of the Sexes in Science Fiction is a lively account of the role of women and feminism in the development of American science fiction during its formative years, the mid-20th century. Beginning in 1926, with the publication of the first issue of Amazing Stories, Justine Larbalestier examines science fiction's engagement with questions of femininity, masculinity, sex and sexuality. She traces the debates over the place of women and feminism in science fiction as it emerged in stories, letters and articles in science fiction magazines and fanzines. The book culminates in the story of James Tiptree, Jr. and the eponymous Award. Tiptree was a successful science fiction writer of the 1970s who was later discovered to be a woman. Tiptree's easy acceptance by the male-dominated publishing arena of the time proved that there was no necessary difference in the way men and women wrote, but that there was a real difference in the way they were read.

Download or read book The History of the Science fiction Magazine written by Michael Ashley and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2016 with total page 495 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mike Ashley's acclaimed history of science-fiction magazines comes to the 1980s with Science-Fiction Rebels: The Story of the Science Fiction Magazines from 1981 to 1990. This volume charts a significant revolution throughout science fiction, much of which was driven by the alternative press, and by new editors at the leading magazines. The period saw the emergence of the cyberpunk movement, and the drive for, what David Hartwell called, 'The Hard SF Renaissance', which was driven from within Britain. Ashley plots the rise of many new authors in both strands: William Gibson, John Shirley, Bruce Sterling, John Kessel, Pat Cadigan, Rudy Rucker in cyberpunk, and Stephen Baxter, Alistair Reynolds, Peter Hamilton, Neal Asher, Robert Reed, in hard sf. He also shows how the alternative magazines looked to support each other through alliances, which allowed them to share and develop ideas as science-fiction evolved.
