Futurians

Futurians

Jump to: navigation, search

The Futurians were a group of science fiction fans, many of whom became editors and writers as well. The Futurians were based in New York City and were a major force in the development of science fiction writing and science fiction fandom in the years 1937-1945.

  • 1 Origins of the group
  • 2 Political tendencies
  • 3 Members included
  • 4 Notes
  • 5 See also
  • 6 References
  • 7 External links

Origins of the group

As described in Isaac Asimov’s autobiography In Memory Yet Green, the Futurians spun off from the Greater New York Science Fiction Club (headed by Sam Moskowitz, later an influential SF editor and historian) over ideological differences, with the Futurians wishing to take a more overt political stance. Other sources indicate that Donald A. Wollheim was pushing for a more left-wing direction with a goal of leading fandom toward a political ideal, all of which Moskowitz resisted. As a result, Wollheim broke off from the Greater New York group and founded the Futurians in September, 1938. The fans following Moskowitz reorganized into the Queens Science Fiction Club.

Frederik Pohl, in his autobiography The Way the Future Was, said that the origins of the Futurians started with the Science Fiction League founded by Hugo Gernsback in 1934, the New York City local chapter of which was called the “Brooklyn Science Fiction League” or BSFL, and headed by G. G. Clark.

Wollheim, John Michel, and Robert A. W. Lowndes were also members of the BSFL. Along with Pohl, the four started calling themselves the “Quadrumvirate”. Pohl, commenting about that time, said “we four marched from Brooklyn to the sea, leaving a wide scar of burned out clubs behind us. We changed clubs the way Detroit changes tailfins, every year had a new one, and last year’s was junk”.

There were several club names during that period, before finally settling on the Futurians. In 1935 there was the “East New York Science Fiction League” (ENYSFL), later the “Independent League for Science Fiction” (ILSF). In 1936 came the International Cosmos Science Club (ICSC), which also involved Will Sykora. Pohl then says that “on reflection ‘Cosmos’ seemed to take in a bit more territory than was justified, so we changed it to the International Scientific Association (it wasn’t International either, but then it also wasn’t scientific)”. The ISA then was renamed New York Branch-International Scientific Association (NYB-ISA).

In 1937, after the falling out with Will Sykora and others, the “Quadrumvirate” went on to found the Futurians. Will Sykora then founded the Queens Science Fiction League with Sam Moskowitz and James V. Taurasi. Later, the QSFL changed into New Fandom. Pohl said as the conflicts between New Fandom and the Futurians were “Addicted to Feuds” and that “No CIA nor KGB ever wrestled so valiantly for the soul of an emerging nation as New Fandom and the Futurians did for science fiction”.

Most of the group’s members also had professional ambitions within science fiction and related fields, and collectively were very effective at achieving this goal, as the roster of members below suggests. At one point in the earliest 1940s, approximately half of all the pulp sf and fantasy magazines in the U.S. were being edited by Futurians: Frederik Pohl at the Popular Publications offshoot Fictioneers, Inc. (Astonishing Stories and Super-Science Stories); Robert Lowndes at Columbia Publications, most notably with Science Fiction and Future Fiction (though through the decade to come, Lowndes’s responsibilities would expand to other types of fiction magazine in the chain), and Donald Wollheim at the very marginal Albing Publications with the short-lived, micro-budgeted Cosmic Stories and Stirring Science Stories (Wollheim soon moved on to Avon Books; Doë “Leslie Perri” Baumgardt also worked on a romance fiction title for Albing). Most of these projects had small editorial budgets, and relied in part, or occasionally entirely, on contributions from fellow Futurians for their contents.

Political tendencies

At the time the Futurians were formed, Donald Wollheim was strongly attracted by communism and believed that followers of science fiction “should actively work for the realization of the scientific world-state as the only genuine justification for their activities and existence”. It was to this end that Wollheim formed the Futurians, and many of its members were in some degree interested in the political applications of science fiction.

Hence the group included supporters of Trotskyism, like Merril, and others who would have been deemed far left for the era (Frederik Pohl became a member of the Communist Party in 1936, but later quit in 1939). On the other hand several members were political moderates or apolitical, and in the case of James Blish arguably right-wing. Damon Knight in The Futurians indicates that Blish at that time felt Fascism was interesting in theory, if repellent as it was then being practiced. More solid evidence is that Blish admired the work of Oswald Spengler.

Pohl, in his autobiography, The Way the Future Was, said Wollheim voted for Republican Presidential Candidate Alfred Landon in 1936.

Edward J. Lewis

Jump to: navigation, search

Edward J. “Eddie” Lewis (May 30, 1937 – November 30, 2006) was a Pittsburgh businessman, philanthropist, and real estate developer. After graduating from the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania, Lewis joined his father, Eugene Lebowitz, in several small real estate ventures, which quickly flourished into the multi-faceted real estate development corporation that is Oxford Development Company.

Among his accomplishments, Eddie Lewis is credited for developing the first two-story enclosed shopping mall in the United States, South Hills Village in Pittsburgh, PA, and virtually conceptualizing the modern American regional shopping mall thereafter. Additionally, Lewis was instrumental in developing much of what has become Aventura, FL, a city which he named, in South Florida, with developments including Aventura Mall, Turnberry Isle Resort and Club, and numerous high-end residential projects. Lewis’ achievements in commercial real estate span numerous states and range from spiraling urban skyscrapers to suburban retail centers.

Despite keeping a low profile with the press, Lewis’ famed yacht Monkey Business became an internationally-known household name after a visit by Presidential-hopeful Gary Hart sunk his political campaign.

Lewis was the Chairman of the Board of his family-owned company, which continues to be a prominent player in commercial and residential real estate.

Edward J. Lewis died on Thursday, November 30, 2006 from complications related to lung cancer. He is survived by his wife Anne and his children John, Cathy, Benjamin, and Andy.

Zombo had the best season of his career in 1989-90, as he scored a career high five goals and 25 points in 77 games, however, the Red Wings would not qualify for the post-season, as they finished in last place in the Norris Division.

The 1990-91 season saw Zombo’s numbers slip a little bit, as he fell to four goals and 23 points in 77 games with Detroit, but the club would return to the playoffs. The Red Wings would push the heavily favored St. Louis Blues to seven games before being eliminated in the first round. Zombo had a goal in seven post-season games.

His offensive numbers continued to slump during the 1992-93 season, as Zombo had no goals and 15 assists in 71 games with the Blues. Zombo added a point in 11 playoff games, as well as a poor rating of -9 as the St. Louis lost in the second round.

Zombo continued to struggle in the 1993-94 season, earning 10 points in 74 games with a -15 rating during the regular season. In the playoffs, the Blues were swept by the Dallas Stars in the first round, as Zombo had no points in four games.

In the lockout shortened season in 1994-95, Zombo appeared in only 23 games, earning five points with the Blues, before going pointless in three playoff games.

Taiwan Grand Shrine

March 5th, 2010

















Taiwan Grand Shrine

Jump to: navigation, search


A painting of Taiwan Grand Shrine during Japanese colonial rule. At the bottom of the painting is the Keelung River and in the lower-right corner the Meiji Bridge is partially visible.

The Taiwan Grand Shrine (Japanese: ???? (????????), Romaji: Taiwan jinguu, Traditional Chinese: ????, Simplified Chinese: ????? Pinyin: Táiw?n shéng?ng) was the highest ranking Japanese Shinto shrine in Taiwan during Japanese colonial rule. Among the 66 officially sanctioned Shinto shrines in Taiwan, Taiwan Grand Shrine was one of the most important and its elevation was also the highest of the shrines.

The Taiwan Grand Shrine was built as Taiwan Shrine in 1901 (Meiji 34) atop Jiantan Mountain (also called Yuanshan Mountain) in nearby Jiantan in Taipei City. Prince Yoshihisa and the Three Kami Deities of Cultivation were added as enshrined deities (?? saijin). The Taiwan Grand Shrine was elevated in rank to Grand Shrine in 1944 (Sh?wa 19) when the kami deity Amaterasu was enshrined. Taiwan Grand Shrine was the tutelary shrine of Taiwan and the most important Shinto shrine in Taiwan. The Governor-General of Taiwan designated October 28 as Taiwan Shrine Festival (????? Taiwan jinjasai) and a public holiday throughout Taiwan.

On April 12, 1923 Crown Prince Hirohito, who would become Emperor Sh?wa three years later, embarked on a two week tour of Taiwan. In preparation for his visit to The Taiwan Grand Shrine, Chokushi Road (???? Chokushi kaid?; present day Chungshan North Road) was created leading to the shrine.

On October 23, 1944 prior to the Taiwan Shrine Festival, a passenger transport plane lost control and crashed atop the mountain where The Taiwan Grand Shrine was located. The accident and resulting fires destroyed the Torii ceremonial archway, stone t?r? lanterns, amongst other important structures.


A postcard issued by the Taiwan Governor of Taiwan Grand Shrine. The Imperial Seal is visible in the upper-right section.


This Copper bull was originally located at Taiwan Grand Shrine but was moved to in front of National Taiwan Museum after the end of World War II.

After World War II, Taiwan Hotel was built on the original site of The Taiwan Grand Shrine. It was later expanded in 1952 to become the present day Grand Hotel. Two copper bulls leading to The Taiwan Grand Shrine were relocated to National Taiwan Museum.
