Dune Magazine Articles

[ordos45]

Okay I knoww Analog had some articles on Dune when it first came out, but I can't find them. I need help (if you all don't mind) finding an article about Dune in a magazine.

Thanks! (About 6 hours is what I have left.)

They weren't articles on Dune, they were Dune. That is how the novel was originally published, in sections in Analog.

Do you need articles? I have 3 articles on Dune, but me typing them up would be hard to do, And I dont have a scanner. My articles were not in a magazine, but more of a scholarly journal magazine. :-

Please explain more so we can help more.

I may know of some online articles.

Um, basically I need articles on Dune, that were in "print based" magazines. Any article on them would do actually, as long as it was in a print-based magazine first. IE: TIME, Life, Analog (even if it was Dune itself).

If it was E-magazines, it would be far easier...I've managed to find a good article on Science Fiction Weekly, but it isn't a print based zine.

Well, there is nothing wrong with using magazine articles that have been reproduced on the web. You still credit the actual print magazine, not the website.

They were printed, although maybe in a book, with many other subjects.

From my essay:

McLean, Susan. “A Question of Balance: Death and Immortality in Frank Herbert's Dune

 Series”. Death and the Serpent: Immortality in Science Fiction and Fantasy. (1985):  145-152.

Palumbo, Donald. “The monomyth as fractal pattern in Frank Herbert's Dune novels”.  Science Fiction Studies 25.3 (Nov. 1998): 433-58.

Thanks for the additional book sources! :) (The McLean quote on religion should help)

your welcome. I should fix up that essay, as their are mistakes that shouldnt be there. (second paragraph, first couple of words ::))

Uh, the fact its not the first book of the series mistake? Its a small one, after all its the first book after the original. And thanks for this article! (Do you want me to shove it in the face of the person who told me it was impossible to find one, and thank Andrew from Fed2k while doing so?) I never really thought of CHOAM as OPEC...

[Andrew]

Yes, that mistake, I thought I corrected it in a revision, but maybe I submitted an older revision.

Sure, shove it in his face. ;)

I am full of resources, if you need more, although it would have been better if you had asked for help at an earlier time. (I spent lots of reading time for that essay, and research) :)

Too bad you can't use books.

[ordos45]

Thanks hehe, time. Yeah I could've used it too, but when the Professor e-mails the day before the class stating that new magazine source is needed, lol. So sorry about not being able to ask earlier. (If I was smart I would've thought of a magazine article source anyhow, before the last minute e-mail.)

[Andrew]

Will you be posting your Essay (if thats what you are doing) on FED2k when completed?

[ordos45]

Possibly, for grammar check if nothing else. I hopefully will though.
