Partendo dal racconto di John Wood Campbell "Who goes there?" esaminiamo questa ottima storia horror di fantascienza per arrivare poi ai tre adattamenti. In questa prima parte mi concentro sul racconto, nelle sue due versioni, e sulla storia del primo film.

jon atack, family and friendsRon Hubbard and Astounding Science Fiction with Alec Nevala-LeeAlec's Astounding is a brilliant account of the 'golden age' of science-fiction when John Campbell, jnr, brought together the writers who would thrust s-f into the public arena - Heinlein, Asimov, Van Vogt and, of course, Ron Hubbard. There is much to be learned from Hubbard's stint at Astounding. Without Campbell, Dianetics might never have seen the light of day. Find how those around Hubbard lost faith in his ideas.

Exploring Tomorrow: Meaningful Science Fiction and Life's Big Questions025 Astounding by Alec Nevala-Lee and the Golden Age of SFAuthor Alec Nevala-Lee stops by to discuss his monumental biography of the early days of science fiction. His book, Astounding, details the rise of SF through the 1930s, 40s, and 50s. This was the age of a magazine called Astounding, today known as Analog Science Fiction and Fact. In those early decades, John W. Campbell served as editor of Astounding and he left an indelible mark on the genre, for better or worse. Campbell fostered talented writers like Robert A. Heinlein, Isaac Asimov, L. Ron Hubbard, and so many more. He indisputably shaped what we understand as Science Fiction...2021-06-011h 01

Our Opinions Are CorrectWe're Officially Done with Lovecraft and CampbellH.P. Lovecraft and John W. Campbell were writers and editors who ruled science fiction in the mid-twentieth century. Their names graced some of the genre's biggest awards. They ran influential magazines. And they were also racist, authoritarian jerkwads who alienated generations of writers and fans. We talk about the rise and fall of these two men, and how to deal with their legacies. Joining us is Alec Nevala-Lee, author of a new book about Campbell and his circle called Astounding.
