Descriere magazin:
The Many Children of Conan Little did then-obscure Texas writer Robert E. Howard know that with the 1929 publication of The Shadow Kingdom in the pulp magazine Weird Tales , he had given birth to a new and vibrant subgenre of fantasy fiction.
Sword-and-sorcery went from pulp obscurity to mass-market paperback popularity before suffering a spectacular publishing collapse in the 1980s. But it lives on in the broader culture and today enjoys a second life in popular role-playing games, music, and films, and helped give birth to a new literary subgenre known as grimdark, popularized by the likes of George R.R. Martin\'s A Song of Ice and Fire fantasy series.
Flame and
Crimson: A
History of
Sword-and-
Sorcery provides much-needed definitions and critical rigor to this misunderstood fantasy subgenre. It traces its origins in the likes of historical fiction, to its birth in the pages of Weird Tales , to its flowering in the Frank Frazetta-illustrated Lancer Conan Saga series in the 1960s. It covers its barbarian bust beneath a heap of second-rate pastiche, a pack of colorful and wildly entertaining and awful sword-and-sorcery films, and popular culture second life in the likes of Dungeons & Dragons and the bombast of heavy metal music.
