Analog Science Fact / Science Fiction December 1963. Dune World - Part 1/3

Image


Image
...Herbert's last great novel was a tale of men under pressure of war and deep water. This is a story of men under pressure of politics and the dehydration of a waterless world...(Campbell)


Image
...In the week before their departure to Arrakis, When all the final scurrying about had reached a near unbearable frenzy, an old crone of a woman came to visit the mother of the boy, Paul...


Image
..."Stamp of strangeness", the old woman breathed, and again she shot a glance at Jessica, returned her attention to Paul. Tell me truly now, Paul, do you often dream a thing and have the dream happen exactly as you dreamed it? ...


Image
...Dr. Yueh....


Image
...The Key word was Maker. Maker? Maker. Still, Mapes held the knife as though ready to use it...


Image
...From the carved headboard slipped a tiny hunter-seeker no more than five centimeters long...



Analog Science Fact / Science Fiction January 1964. Dune World - Part 2/3

Image


Image
...The Duke Leto Atreides leaned against a parapet of the landing control tower outside Arrakeen...


Image
...A solido tri-D projection appeared on the table surface about a third of the way down from the Duke. Some of the men farther down the table stood up to get a better look at it. Scaled against the tiny projected human figures around it, the machine was about one hundred and twenty meters long and about forty meters wide...


Image
...You have not earned the right to unsheath that blade, the Fremen said...


Image
...As he had approached the solitary figure standing near the ornithopter, Leto had studied him: Tall, thin - dressed for the desert in loose robe, stillsuit and desert boots...



Analog Science Fact / Science Fiction February 1964. Dune World - Part 3/3

Image


Image
...She sensed a first diminishing of the dark. It began with shadows. Dimensions separated, became new thorns of awareness...


Image
...There was a table. Leto saw the table quite clearly. And a gross fat man on the other side of the table, the remains of a meal in front of him. Leto felt himself sitting in a chair across from the fat man, felt the chains, the straps that held him into the chair...

Image
...She had never before seen the man who entered and stood beside the Baron, but the face was vaguely familiar - narrow and with hawk features...


Analog Science Fact / Science Fiction April 1965. Prophet of Dune - Part 4/5

Image


Image
...I am a Sandrider, Paul told himself...


Image
...Gurney saw the taking of the worm...


Note : some interior Dune illustrations cannot be reproduced here, as they are too close to the spine of the magazine and a decent scan is impossible without removing the pages.

      Is the question whether or not we can call the Schoenherr drawings canon? I don't think so, because FH didn't do them. But the Burns drawings in Eye are a different story. That short story is credited to FH and to Burns, and Burns makes it clear in his essay in that book that he drew the drawings, then FH wrote the text. FH liked the Schoenherr drawings, but I haven't seen that he adopted (or rather, adapted) them the way that he did with the Burns artwork.

      I'd agree that they aren't "canon", but they are more so than any other drawings (excluding the Eye stuff) IMO. And I do think that FH was influenced by them - initially he never describes anything like the 3 jawed mouth of the sandworms that Schoenherr depicts (and I assume FH had a round mouth in mind), but at some point later in the series he describes the sandworm's mouth opening like petals on a flower. My guess is that he saw what Shoenherr drew and liked it enough to work it into the text in later books.

      Frank Herbert was so impressed with Schoenherr's work that he once referred to him as "the only man who has ever visited Dune" (quoted in The New Encyclopedia of Science Fiction).

          The Analog stuff — along with other works that first appeared in magazine form — occupy a special place in the canon argument. They both are and are not canon, and, most importantly, it just doesn't matter.

          Although it's not a factor in our times, when authors are routinely contracted for trilogies on the basis of an outline, books often appeared first in magazine form in the '50s, '60s, and '70s. It was understood that editorial changes would likely be made between the magazine and book appearances (especially for "cliffhanger" serials, which, obviously, no longer need their cliffhangers when they shift to book form). These special circumstances, seen very rarely today, create some unique circumstances in terms of canon.

          Using "Dune World" as a specific example: it can be easily argued to be a canon work, as it so clearly led to both Dune and Dune Messiah, and since all the works in question are from the same mind. On the other hand, it's also possible to argue against a canon designation, as so many significant changes were made between the editions. There is not an easy answer to the question, nor an answer that fits easily into any known definition of canon. It's a tricky situation produced by a form of publishing that used to be popular but is rarely seen any longer.

          +++++

          What's not tricky: the McDune crap. It's an open-and-shut case. NOT canon. The feeble "writing" from the world's most notorious hack and a brain-dead zombie wouldn't be canon even if they could prove both the existence of Frank Herbert's notes/outlines and that they were carefully following those items. It still wouldn't matter. It still wouldn't be direct from FH's mind to fingers to typewriter to paper. Nothing else matters; Brian Herbert's last name is irrelevant.

          I could have missed it but is the text to Dune World available anywhere?

              I found this page http://www.scifi.darkroastedblend.com/2 ... rbert.html while having a quick look for the text to Dune World, I haven't had the chance to read it yet but the Analog cover scans looked a little sharper than those I'd seen before and thought you'd like a look.

              I just noticed this thread (sorry, new around here) and checked my Amazon account to see how much I paid back in 2008. I got a good paperback copy for £7.49 + £2.75 postage. That's about 15 bucks for the yanks. Pages are a bit discoloured from age but no creases and spine intact. I probably lucked out there. The current prices are insane, and always have been I suppose. Moral of the tale, keep an eye out because they do come up cheap. So don't give up! I'd been hunting for at least a decade for a copy in reasonable condition at a reasonable price.

              PS Just had a quick look to see in any HC editions were up for sale. Erm...yeah...£400!!! :o

              This is what comes of not using spaces when writing your language. :naughty:

              "any excuse for Americans"

              got rendered more or less as

              アメリカ人口実 (Amerika-jin koujitsu, lit. "American excuse")

              which got reanalyzed going the J-E direction as

              アメリカ 人口 実 (Amerika jinkou mi = "America population fruit")

              And so it goes. :lol:

              When I bought my own there were several copies floating around on Amazon marketplace and eBay for similar prices. Don't know what prompted the sudden appearence of all these copies? I think it may have been simply a case of too many appearing at one time to command the collectors prices. It's a worthwhile read for Dune aficiaoandos, but I wouldn't pay the $100 norm. I wouldn't call it an essential read although it's certainly an interesting one, and a better example of the Dune Expanded Universe than the garbage churned out on the HLP's conveyor belt of mediocrity.

              A beginning is the time for taking the most delicate care that the balances are correct. This every sister of the Bene Gesserit knows. To begin your study of the life of Muad'Dib, then, take care you first place him in his time: born in the 57th year of the Padishah Emperor, Shaddam IV. And take the most special care that you locate Muad'Dib in his place: the planet Arrakis. Do not be deceived by the fact that he was born on Caladan and live his first fifteen years there. Arrakis, the planet known as Dune, is forever his place.

              I could see a whole new method of Internet divination developing from this... You type in a question, google, take the text from the nth hit and feed it into Translate and bounce it back and forth a number of times and then inspect the results for your answer.

              BRILLIANT, 'Rider, simply brilliant! :D

              What fear is there in the night?
