Beschreibung

Bound manuscript copy of the American science fiction author, Dean Ing's (1931-2020) master's thesis from San Jose State University, department of Speech-Communication. The laid in letter is heavily corrected and discusses Ing's research for his thesis, offering this copy for scanning in hopes that Dr. Ljung might use it for a citation or two in his own writing. Ing would go on to receive a Ph.D. from the University of Oregon and reside in Ashland for the rest of his years. In addition to his genre fiction, he wrote survivalist nonfiction articles including instructional writing on the manufacture of tools and avoidance of disease. These themes were woven into his novels as well, a testament to his interest in the outdoors of the American West. This copy came from the author's estate in Ashland and provides a unique glimpse into the background of this academic writer. Ing should not be overlooked for his role in the hard science fiction renaissance of the 1980s. 4to, 89pp. Printed recto only, reproduced from typescript. The author's copy bound in blue cloth lettered in gilt. Near fine condition. Laid in is a marked-up, unsigned draft of a two-page letter from Ing to Dr. Magnus Ljung of the Goteborgs Universitet in Sweden. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 5973
