Zirlinson Publishing: 35 Years 1983-2018: A History in Cover Art
Author: Shawn M. Tomlinson
Publisher: Lulu.com
ISBN: 0359296319
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 72
Book Description
It has been a long, strange road, and probably has no end clearly in sight. Many more books are in the works as I write this in early December 2018. For example, I have published nine novels to date, and am writing nine more, with plans for some beyond that. The Shawn M. Tomlinson's Guide to Photography series has 29 titles in print, with another five or six nearly complete, and plans for 30 to 40 more. I'm also trying to rework and rearrange those books into omnibus editions by chronology and by theme.I never will get every book done I want to do, but it keeps me busy.I always planned on putting out a catalog of all the Zirlinson Books, but kept getting waylaid for one reason or another until now. This catalog is available as a print book in color. The color print book will be cost prohibitive for many people, so there likely will be a black and white version available, too.

Phenomenal Stories, Vol. 1, No. 1
Author: Shawn M. Tomlinson
Publisher: Lulu.com
ISBN: 0359097979
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 154
Book Description
There's nothing like holding a pulp magazine; smelling that wonderful smell of the decaying acidic paper, seeing the garish brightly colored cover, looking for the names that became legends. Since 1978, I always wanted to create, edit, design and publish my own "pulp" speculative fiction - science fiction, fantasy, horror, weird, cyberpunk, etc. - magazine. I've tried many times. I know it's a ridiculous pursuit, especially since magazines themselves virtually are extinct as of 2018. Reading the non-fiction in the pulps is a glimpse into how scientists and writers thought the future would happen. The way the future was. This is an attempt to feel a little of that. It may or may not be a one-off, depending upon how many writers I can get to contribute. At least one issue, the one you hold in your hands, of Phenomenal Stories does exist, and that's one more pulp magazine than existed before. Perhaps one day, you can read this and think, hmm, that's the way the future was.

To Embody the Marvelous
Author: Esther Fernández
Publisher: Vanderbilt University Press
ISBN: 0826501818
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 306
Book Description
In its exploration of puppetry and animation as the performative media of choice for mastering the art of illusion, To Embody the Marvelous engages with early modern notions of wonder in religious, artistic, and social contexts. From jointed, wood-carved figures of Christ, saintly marionettes that performed hagiographical dramas, experimental puppets and automata in Cervantes' Don Quixote, and the mechanical sets around which playwright Calderón de la Barca devised secular magic shows to deconstruct superstitions, these historical and fictional artifacts reenvisioned religious, artistic, and social notions that led early modern society to critically wrestle with enchantment and disenchantment. The use of animated performance objects in Spanish theatrical contexts during the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries became one of the most effective pedagogical means to engage with civil society. Regardless of social strata, readers and spectators alike were caught up in a paradigm shift wherein belief systems were increasingly governed by reason—even though the discursive primacy of supernatural doxa and Christian wonder remained firmly entrenched. Thanks to their potential for motion, religious and profane puppets, automata, and mechanical stage props deployed a rationalized sense of wonder that illustrates the relationship between faith and reason, reevaluates the boundaries of fiction in art and entertainment cultures, acknowledges the rise of science and technology, and questions normative authority.
