Collected Fiction by Theodore R. Cogswell (ed. Jerry eBooks, 2019)
Requirements: .ePUB reader, 2.7 MB
Overview: Theodore Rose Cogswell was born on March 10, 1918 in Coatesville, Pennsylvania was an university English professor who began publishing science fiction in 1950s.
During the Spanish Civil War, as a teenager, served as an ambulance driver for the Republicans as part of the Abraham Lincoln Brigade.
His first published short story, “The Spectre General” in the magazine June 1952 issue of Astounding Science Fiction, was a humorous tale in which a long-forgotten maintenance brigade of the Imperial Space Marines has the potential of reinvigorating a declining Galactic empire.
Theodore Cogswell wrote over 40 science fiction stories, most of them humorous, and was co-author of Spock, Messiah!; a novel of the Star Trek franchise.
In 1959, he founded and edited a Fanzine for professional writers called Publications of the Institute of Twenty-First Century Studies but universally pronounced PITFCS; it ran to the end of 1962, though with a final number in 1979 (mostly containing material from 1962); it became quickly famed for the informative frankness of its contributors’ discussions of their own and others’ work, its most frequent contributors including Brian W Aldiss, Poul Anderson, Isaac Asimov, James Blish, Anthony Boucher, Reginald Bretnor, Algis Budrys, John W Campbell Jr, Arthur C Clarke, Avram Davidson, Gordon R Dickson, Horace L Gold, Robert A Heinlein, Damon Knight, Fritz Leiber, Dean McLaughlin, Judith Merril, Frederik Pohl, Eric Frank Russell, Theodore Sturgeon and Donald W Wollheim. Its niche as a forum for uninhibited semi-private discussion was arguably filled by the internal Forum of Science Fiction Writers of America, founded in 1965. The entire contents of the journal—except for one issue dealing with a particularly ugly controversy involving Walter M Miller—were eventually assembled in a single huge volume as PITFCS: Proceedings of the Institute for Twenty-First Century Studies.
Theodore Cogswell died on February 3, 1987 in Scranton, Pennsylvania.
