He published enduring novels, novellas, and short stories in many genres: fables, satires, romances, voyages into the unknown. He collaborated with other major sf writers--Arthur C. Clarke, Isaac Asimov, Theodore Sturgeon, Jack Williamson--on other novels. The Space Merchants (1953), written with C. M. Kornbluth, is an established classic. His 1977 novel Gateway is another; it swept the awards that year, winning the Hugo, the Locus, the Nebula, and theJohn W. Campbell Memorial Award. His Jem (1979) won a National Book Award. He won four Hugo and three Nebula Awards. In addition to his fiction, Pohl was a highly successful editor of two science fiction magazines, Galaxy and If, where he launched many other writers who would themselves become famous. He edited numerous anthologies and frequently reviewed the works of others. He was an observant writer about science fiction in print and on his award-winning blog. Pohl published his first story in 1937 and as recently as 2011 published a novel, All the Lives He Led. In the interval he published more than twenty novels, as many collections of short stories, a memoir, and scores of essays and reviews. This book will be the first overview of his long and highly productive career"--Provided by publisher."One of science fiction's undisputed grandmasters, Frederik Pohl built an astonishing career that spanned more than seven decades. Along the way he won millions of readers and seemingly as many awards while producing novels, short stories, and essays that left a profound mark on the genre. In this first-of-its-kind study, Michael R. Page traces Pohl's journey as an author but also uncovers his role as a transformative figure who shaped the genre as a literary agent, book editor, and in Gardner Dozois' words, "quite probably the best SF magazine editor who ever lived.""--Provided by publisher.Modern masters of science fiction.Science fiction, AmericanHistory and criticismAuthors, American20th centuryBiographyAuthors, American21st centuryBiographyScience fiction, AmericanHistory and criticism.Authors, AmericanAuthors, American813/.54LIT004260BIO007000bisacshPage Michael R.1967-1709663MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910819377603321Frederik Pohl4099592UNINA01531nam0 22003371i 450 UON0020095320231205103253.64334-684-9673-720030730d1995 |0itac50 bagerDE|||| |||||Testen und Prüfen in der GrundstufeEinstufungstests und SprachstandsprüfungenHans-Georg Albers, Sibylle Boltonunter Mitarbeit von Eva-Maria JenkinsBerlinMünchen : Langenscheidt200 p. ill. ; 30 cmSul front.: Fernstudieneinheit 7.001UON001735042001 ˆDas ‰ Fernstudienprojekt.
