He worked to recruit and lead Black troops...

Embedded in the mix of Delany’s novel Blake; or, The Huts of America are several songs that invoke some of Foster’s most familiar melodies, such as those associated with the songs “Oh! Susanna” and “Uncle Ned.” Digging through the archive, scholars have discovered these parodies to be the work of the relatively obscure Joshua McCarter Simpson, an activist in Ohio’s Colored Conventions movement, a conductor on the underground railroad, and, with the publication of his Original A...

Starboard Vineyard ToursStarboard Vineyard Tours 1: About 5,750 Words, DelanyIn our inaugural episode, we read "About 5,750 Words," Samuel R. Delany's classic essay on the language of science fiction. Delany theorizes the experience of reading, seeing each work of fiction as a sequence of word-images, each changing and correcting the reader's mental picture of what they have already read. (These pictures even include Delany's vision of "the", an alien creature we discuss in detail.) Science fiction, then, is a particular "subjunctivity" of language, a way that science fictional language cues us to read. It's safe to say neither of us would think about science fiction the way we do...

The Unseen Book ClubTrouble on Triton by Samuel R. DelanyIn 1976, one year after the publication of his masterpiece Dhalgren, Samuel R. Delany wrote Trouble on Triton: An Ambiguous Heterotopia. A prescient, layered and vexing novel, Triton traces the existential crises of gender, sex, alienation and desire plaguing its protagonist Bron Helstrom as he navigates daily life as a white-collar tech worker living in a gender-specified housing cooperative on Neptune´s moon Triton. A story of unrequited desire and petty social complaints unfolds amidst exquisite science-fictional word-building and the rich meta-textual study Delany is known for.We are joined by artist and fellow Delany enthusiast Lyn Corelle.

Delany havde sin debut under den såkaldte “New Wave of Science Fiction,” der dominerede i 60’erne og 70’erne, med en mere experimenterende stil, der brød med den traditionelle “pulp science fiction.” Bevægelsen fokuserede på det litterære og temaer som sexualitet, bevidsthed...

The Pointless CenturyDelany's NovaEpisode Notes
S3 E2: Nova (1968) by Samuel R. “Chip” Delany
Frank forces everyone to read a favorite SF novel of his. Leah joins for her first guest appearance.
Correction/clarification:
Delany is meticulous about in noting when his novels were written at the end of each manuscript, but Frank is not quite as careful in his discussion of them. Nova was written between 1966-67; Hogg was written between 1969-73, overlapping with Dhalgren; Trouble on Triton was written between 1973-74.

Sherds Podcast#28 Dhalgren by Samuel R Delany
Samuel R. Delany’s Dhalgren was originally published in 1975. Since its publication, Dhalgren has had its fair share of proponents and enemies - it has been called both the best and the worst book ever to come out of the field of science fiction. Over the course of its eight-hundred pages, we follow our main character, the Kid, as he wanders listlessly through devastated city of Bellona, located somewhere in the United States on the border between utopia and dystopia. It is a city where time dilates and contracts, buildings spontaneously combust, obscuring mists curl through the streets. And here...

If you feel this way after years of gardening, you're not alone. Over two centuries ago, Thomas Jefferson sent a letter to his friend, the painter Charles Wilson Peale.
