# A Short History of Russian "Fantastica"/Epilogue

Supplements to Part 4 through to this Epilogue appear in Australian science fiction periodical "The Mentor", Issue 81. (January 1994)
This is the short history of science fiction in Russia (USSR). Of course, the author does not claim this is a complete picture, and understands that a comprehensive history of SF will not be written soon, because in the time of a general reappraisal of values, it is difficult for anyone to observe objectively!
"The brothers Strugatski, who were among the active fighters for democracy, are now accused of "Communism Utopianism"; "In 1957 we were particularly enthusiastic about I. Efremov's novel ANDROMEDA, but now that enthusiasm seems almost shameful." wrote Mrs. V. Chalinkova in her article DREAMERS: IDEOLOGY IS NOT WANTED. But we must be proud of our fantasy. If we remember the conditions in which it was developed, then we ought to be surprised that anybody ever wrote and published any "fantastic" books.
And now it is difficult to predict the future of Russian SF. The author only hopes that soon normal life will take root and fantasy will take its deserving place in the Russian people's mind.

# A Short History of Russian "Fantastica"

The Andrei Lubensky’s short history of Russian “fantastica” was written very early in nineties of XX century and was first published in “The Mentor”, Australia. Those times, in Russia, there were hot discussions on Russian fantastic literature future and the ways for its development and this fact leaved an imprint on the history’s spirit. It was considered in Russian fandom that those ways right choice would determine all the society evolution ways. Translated by Vitaly Lubensky.

INTRODUCTION
There is a very large class of persons alive to-day who believe that not only is communication with the dead possible, but that they themselves have had actual experience of it. Many of these are eminent in scientific research, and on any other subject the world in general would accept their evidence.
There is possibly a larger class of persons who hold that all such communications, if genuine, come not from the dead but from the devil. This is the taught opinion of the Roman Catholic Church.
A third class, far more numerous than both of these, is sure that any one who holds either of these beliefs is a dupe of conjurers, or the victim of his own disordered brain. This type of robust intellect has, during the last ten decades, affirmed that hypnotism, aviation in machines heavier than air, telepathy, wireless telegraphy, and other non-proved phenomena, are superstitious and unscientific balderdash. In an earlier century it was equally certain that the earth did not go round the sun. It is, happily, never disconcerted by the frequency with which the superstitions and impossibilities of one generation become the science of the next.
The first part of this book may be accepted by the ​first of these three classes, the second by the second, and none of it by the third. Its aim is to state rather than solve the subject with which it deals, and to suggest that the dead and the devil alike may be able to communicate with the living.

# A Voyage to the South Atlantic and round Cape Horn into the Pacific Ocean, etc./Dedication

Sir Philip Stephens, Bart.
one of the
Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty,
Member of Parliament for Sandwich,
Sir,
In dedicating to you the voyage, which is the subject of the following pages, my gratification would indeed be sincere, (did the work possess an importance which might fully claim your regard:) humble, however, as it's ​pretensions are, the opportunity, it gives, must serve to testify my sincere respect, my lasting gratitude, for your favors; and I repose with some security, on an extension, of that protection, towards this volume, which has so often been the encouragement, of my professional exertions.
The difficulties which navigators have experienced, in traversing the South Seas and Pacific Ocean, have evidently, from the commencement of your connection with the Admiralty, excited your particular consideration: and it is certain, in all the changes to which that Board has been subject, that the explorer of remote ​seas, has found in you, a zealous advocate to represent his claims to those, with whom it remained, to bestow the reward due to his endeavours and merits.
As far as I am individually concerned, it is with sincerity I aver, that in all situations of trial and difficulty on unknown and unfriendly coasts, I have found an unceasing consolation in the hope that I possessed your good opinion; and that in the end, my services would obtain, through the channel of your faithful explanation, a liberal requital.
If any distinct praise can confer an honor on your name, (beyond what it bears for the general ability, zeal and ​integrity, which have been invariably manifested, during the extensive period of your official services), it is most assuredly due for your public, as well as private acts of friendship to those, who like me, have embarked for the purpose of enlarging the bounds of Navigation and Commerce; and I feel a decided conviction, that every follower of the able Captain Cook, will give a cordial assent to this tribute.
I am, Sir, Your truly obliged and most obedient humble Servant,
No. 17, Miltman Street, Bedford Row.
James Colnett.
# A Voyage to the South Sea/Advertisement

At the time I published the Narrative of the Mutiny on Board the Bounty it was my intention that the preceding part of the Voyage should be contained in a separate account. This method I have since been induced to alter. The reason of the Narrative appearing first was for the purpose of communicating early information concerning an event which had attracted the public notice: and, being drawn up in a hasty manner, it required many corrections. Some circumstances likewise were omitted; and the notation of time used in the Narrative being according to sea reckoning, in which the days begin and end at noon, must have produced a degree of obscurity and confusion to readers accustomed only to the civil mode. And this would have increased as the remainder of the voyage, on account of the numerous shore occurrences at Otaheite and elsewhere, could not, with clearness and propriety, have been related in any other than the usual manner of reckoning.
Besides remedying these inconveniencies I have thought a fuller account of our passage from Timor to Europe than that contained in the Narrative would not be unacceptable. These reasons, with the manifest convenience of comprising the whole Voyage in one continued narrative, in preference to letting it appear in disjointed accounts will, it is hoped, be allowed a sufficient excuse for having varied from the original intention. Nevertheless for the accommodation of the purchasers of the Narrative already published those who desire it will be supplied with the other parts of the Voyage separate; i.e. the part previous to the mutiny and the additional account after leaving Timor.

# Admiral Hosier's Ghost

To the Tune of Come and Listen to my Ditty
I As, near Porto Bello lying, On the gently swelling flood, At midnight, with streamers flying, Our triumphant navy rode; There, while Vernon sate, all glorious From the Spaniards' late defeat, And his crew, with shouts victorious, Drank success to England's fleet,
II On a sudden, shrilly sounding, Hideous yells and shrieks were heard; Then, each heart with fears confounding, A sad troop of ghosts appear'd; All in dreary hammocks shrouded, Which for winding sheets they wore; And with looks by sorrow clouded, Frowning on that hostile shore.
III On them gleam'd the moon's wan lustre, When the shade of Hosier brave, His pale band was seen to muster, Rising from their wat'ry grave: O'er the glimmering wave he hied him, Where the Burford rear'd her sail, With three thousand ghosts beside him, And in groans did Vernon hail.
IV 'Heed, oh heed! my fatal story, 'I am Hosier's injur'd ghost; 'You who now have purchas'd glory 'At this place where I was lost; 'Tho' in Porto Bello's ruin 'You now triumph, free from fears, 'Yet to hear of my undoing, 'You will mix your joys with tears.
V 'See yon mournful spectres sweeping, 'Ghastly, o'er this hated wave, 'Whose wan cheeks are stain'd with weeping; 'These were English captains brave; 'And these numbers pale and horrid, 'Were my sailors once so bold; 'Lo, each hangs his drooping forehead, 'While his dismal fate is told.
VI 'I, by twenty sail attended, 'Did this Spanish town affright, 'Nothing then its wealth defended 'But my orders not to fight; 'Oh that, with my wrath complying, 'I had cast them in the main, 'Then, no more unactive lying, 'I had low'red the pride of Spain.
VII 'For resistance I could fear none, 'But with twenty ships had done, 'What thou, brave and happy Vernon, 'Did'st achieve with six alone. 'Then the Bastimento's never 'Had our foul dishonour seen, 'Nor the sea the sad receiver 'Of these gallant men had been.
VIII 'Thus, like thee, proud Spain dismaying, 'And her galleons leading home, 'Tho', condemn'd for disobeying, 'I had met a traitor's doom; 'To have fall'n, my country crying, 'He has play'd an English part, 'Had been better far than dying 'Of a griev'd and broken heart.
IX Unrepining at thy glory,
Thy successful arms we hail;
But remember our sad Story,
And let Hosier's wrongs prevail;
Sent in this foul clime to languish Think what thousands fell in vain,
Wasted with disease and anguish,
Not in glorious battle Stain.
X Hence with all my train attending From their oozy tombs below,
Through the hoary foam ascending Here I feed my constant woe;
Here the Bastimento's viewing,
We recal our shameful doom,
And our plaintive cries renewing,
Wander through the mighnight gloom.
XI O'er these waves forever mourning,
Shall we roam depriv'd of rest,
If to Britain's Shores returning,
You neglect my just request;
After this proud foe subduing,
When your patriot friends you see,
Think on vengeance for my ruin,
And for England sham'd in me.

Adamson v. California
APPEAL FROM THE SUPREME COURT OF CALIFORNIA
No. 102 Argued: January 15-16, 1947 --- Decided: June 23, 1947
1. The guaranty of the Fifth Amendment that no person "shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself" is not made effective against state action by the Fourteenth Amendment. Twining v. New Jersey, 211 U.S. 78, and Palko v. Connecticut, 302 U.S. 319, reaffirmed. Pp. 50-53.
2. The privilege against self-incrimination is not inherent in the right to a fair trial, and is therefore not, on that basis, protected by the due process clause of the Fourteenth Amendment. Pp. 53-54.
3. The constitution and statutes of California provide that, in any criminal case, whether the defendant testifies or not, his "failure to explain or to deny by his testimony any evidence or facts in the case against him may be commented upon" by the court and by counsel, and may be considered by the court or the jury. If the defendant pleads not guilty, but admits a charge that he has suffered a previous conviction, the charge of the previous conviction must not be read to the jury. However, if the defendant testifies, the previous conviction may, on cross-examination, be [p47] revealed to the jury to impeach his testimony. In a prosecution for murder, in which the defendant admitted previous convictions but did not testify, the trial court instructed the jury, and the state's attorney argued the case, in accordance with the state law.
Held: The provisions of the California law, as applied in the circumstances of this case, do not violate the due process clause of the Fourteenth Amendment. Pp. 53-58.
4. There is no basis in the California law for the defendant's objection on due process or other grounds that the statutory authorization to comment on the failure to explain or deny adverse testimony shifts the burden of proof or the duty to go forward with the evidence. P. 58.
5. This Court does not interfere with a conclusion of the State Supreme Court that it was improbable that the jury was misled by the prosecutor's argument to believe that the jury could infer guilt solely from the defendant's silence. P. 58.
6. The defendant in this case was not denied due process of law by the admission in evidence of tops of women's stockings that were found in his room, even though they did not match a stocking part which was found under the victim's body. Pp. 58-59.
Appellant was convicted in a state court of murder in the first degree. The conviction was affirmed by the state supreme court, 27 Cal.2d 478, 165 P.2d 3, which sustained the validity of provisions of the state law challenged as violative of the Federal Constitution. Affirmed, p. 59.

# A treasury of war poetry, British and American poems of the world war, 1914-1919/The Mother

THE MOTHER
HER boys are not shut out. They come Homing like pigeons to her door, Sure of her tender welcome home, As many a time before.
Their bed is made so smooth and sweet, The fire is lit—the table spread; She has poured water for their feet, That they be comforted.
As with a fluttering of wings They are come home, come home to stay; With all the bitter dreadful things Forgot, clean washed away.
They are so glad to stay, so glad They nestle to her gown's soft flow, As in the loving times they had, Long ago, long ago.
​Oh, not like lonely ghosts in mist Her boys come from the night and rain, But to be clasped, but to be kissed, And not go out again.

THE NAME OF FRANCE
GIVE us a name to fill the mind With shining thoughts that lead mankind, The glory of learning, the joy of art,— A name that tells of a splendid part In the long, long toil and the strenuous fight Of the human race to win its way From the feudal darkness into the day Of Freedom, Brotherhood, Equal Right,— A name like a star, a name of light. I give you France!
Give us a name to stir the blood With a warmer glow and a swifter flood, At the touch of a courage that knows not fear,— A name like the sound of a trumpet, clear, And silver-sweet, and iron-strong, That calls three million men to their feet, Ready to march, and steady to meet The foes who threaten that name with wrong,— A name that rings like a battle-song. I give you France!
Give us a name to move the heart With the strength that noble griefs impart, A name that speaks of the blood outpoured To save mankind from the sway of the sword,— A name that calls on the world to share In the burden of sacrificial strife When the cause at stake is the world's free life And the rule of the people everywhere,— A name like a vow, a name like a prayer. I give you France!
