🌟 [ 40 ]   Short Story Anthologies Are a Roadmap to Science Fiction History [ @the library ladder ]

Short stories have been incubators of experimental and speculative ideas since the emergence of the science fiction genre more than a century ago. They re also my favorite form of SF, as they distill and concentrate what makes much of the genre so appealing to me. In this video, I provide a brief overview of the evolution of SF short fiction and its impact on the genre, with an emphasis on the anthologies that have collected and popularized the stories and authors that defined its early years. 0:36 Short stories as SF laboratories 2:54 Early SF readers 5:23 SF in the pulps 6:32 Tracing the history of SF short stories 10:29 The pulps get competition 11:55 Emergence of SF anthologies 13:08 Impact of SF anthologies 15:21 Wide range of anthologies 16:11 1940s u0026 50s anthologies 22:29 1960s u0026 New Wave influence 28:14 Themed anthologies 28:55 1970s u0026 80s anthologies 29:32 1990s to present day Links to the Science Fiction Alliance members and their The Sparrow videos: MEDIA DEATH CULT - @MediaDeathCult ([ 🔗 Click ‼️ ] BOOKPILLED - @Bookpilled ([ 🔗 Click ‼️ ] FIT2BREAD - @FIT2BREAD ([ 🔗 Click ‼️ ] WORDS IN TIME - @WordsinTime THE SECRET SAUCE OF STORYCRAFT - @secretsauceofstorycraft ([ 🔗 Click ‼️ ] The Alliance has a website located at [ 🔗 Click ‼️ ] .
