21st Century Masters - Douglas Adams
Find out everything about the science fiction author and his work.
http://www.21stcentury.co.uk/masters/douglas_adams.asp

Extractions: He was the creator of all the various manifestations of The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy, which started life as a BBC Radio 4 series in March 1978. Since then it has been transformed into a series of best-selling novels, a TV series, a record album, a computer game and several stage adaptations. It is currently under development as a major motion picture with Disney. The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy's phenomenal success sent the book straight to Number One in the UK Bestseller List and in 1984 Douglas Adams became the youngest author to be awarded a Golden Pan. He won a further two (a rare feat), and was nominated - though not selected - for the first Best of Young British Novelists awards. He followed this success with The Restaurant at the End of the Universe (1980); Life, The Universe and Everything (1982); So Long and Thanks for all the Fish (1984); and Mostly Harmless (1992). The first two books in the Hitchhiker series were adapted into a 6 part television series, which was an immediate success when first aired in 1982. Other publications include Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency (1987) and Long Dark Tea-time of the Soul (1988). In 1984 Douglas teamed up with John Lloyd and wrote The Meaning of Liff and after a huge success The Deeper Meaning of Liff followed this in 1990). One of Douglass personal favourites was written in 1990 when he teamed up with zoologist Mark Carwardine and wrote Last Chance to See an account of a world-wide search for rare and endangered species of animals.
[Medienobservationen] Timo Kozlowski: Douglas Adams
Eine Beschreibung der Werke des Autors.
http://www.medienobservationen.uni-muenchen.de/artikel/literatur/douglas.html

Extractions: Abstract: "Per Anhalter durch die Galaxis" - durch diese letztlich auf sechs Bände angewachsene Science Fiction-Trilogie ist der im Mai 2001 verstorbene Douglas Adams zum Kultautor avanciert. Hierzulande etwas weniger bekannt ist, dass die Geschichte um Arthur Dent und Ford Prefect im britischen öffentlich-rechtlichen Rundfunk ihren Anfang nahm und schon sehr früh in allen Medien (Radio, Fernsehen, Schallplatte, Computerspiel, der Film ist seit Jahren geplant) vertreten war. Neben dem schwarzen Humor und absonderlichen Gestalten sind Adams' Werke teilweise auch überraschend weitsichtige Technikvisionen. In Kalifornien, wo sich Adams kurz vor seinem Tod niedergelassen hat, kreisten seine Gedanken zuletzt darum, wie im Internet das demokratische Ideal der griechischen polis wieder aufleben könnte. Meine erste Begegnung mit Douglas Adams' Werk? Das Schockierende für mich ist im Nachhinein, dass ich mich nur an das Drumherum erinnere. Irgendwann zu Beginn der 80er Jahre lief im Nachmittagsprogramm der ARD die BBC-Serie "Per Anhalter durch die Galaxis". In unserer Fernsehzeitschrift war die Sendung als "englischer Straßenfeger" angekündigt. Das Nächste, an das ich mich wegen dieser Serie sonst noch erinnere, ist, dass sie bereits nach der ersten Folge auf dem familieninternen Index stand: Das soll komisch sein? Ich kann nicht mehr sagen, ob ich damals für "Per Anhalter durch die Galaxis" Partei ergriffen habe.

Saufende Engel und Gottes Botschaft Dies ist der vierte Band in Adams' "Anhalter durchs Weltall"-Reihe. Handlung Arthur Dent und Gefolge haben erheblich an Unwahrscheinlichkeitsdrive verloren!Während der doppelköpfige Zaphod und seine irdisch-affige Trillian gar nicht auftauchen, spielen Galaxist Ford Prefect und Oberblechtrottel Marvin nur am Rande eine Rolle. Der Hauptschauplatz des Geschehens ist eine Erde (eine richtige ist ja von den Vogonen vernichtet worden), so daß die Ausflüge in exotische Zivilisationen sehr sporadisch ausfallen. Schließlich wirkt auch die Liebesgeschichte von Arthur Dent trotz des leicht erotischen Pfeffers ziemlich lahm und deplaziert. Der restliche Inhalt sich nur schwer wiedergeben, denn selbst ein gemäßigter Adams ist dafür zu verwirrend. Der Titel jedenfalls ist identisch mit einer auf Kristallschüsseln verschlüsselten Botschaft der Delphine, und am Ende gibt es die letzte Botschaft Gottes an seine Schöpfung.

Höchstwahrscheinlich sagen sie irgend etwas ähnliches wie: Du großer Gott, du kannst doch unmöglich fliegen!" Es ist ungeheuer wichtig, ihnen keinen Glauben zu schenken, oder aber sie haben augenblicklich recht. Laß dich höher und höher tragen.
AIH: Douglas Adams: Hitch-Hiker's Guide To The Galaxy - CBC Radio
Listen to douglas adams when he was guest on Morningside (1987) talking about The HitchHiker's Guide to the Galaxy .

Extractions: Douglas Adams died of a heart attack. He was 49. The literature of science fiction has a long and distinguished history, and its writers have many worthy attributes. Few of them, though, have been defined by their sense of humour. Which is why Douglas Adams turned the genre on its ear in 1978, with his literate, sly, and very funny Hitch-Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy. Adams died of a heart attack on Friday. He was 49 years old. The Hitch-Hiker's Guide started as a BBC radio series. It found a new audience when it was turned into a book, and later a TV series. He wrote a number of sequels to the Hitch-Hiker's Guide, and another series of books about his holistic detective, Dirk Gently. More recently Adams was working in multi-media, producing a hit CD-ROM called Starship Titanic. An online version of the Hitch-Hiker's Guide was in the works, at the time of his death.

Grundkurs Deutsch Die Hintergrundgeschichte: Das war mehr oder weniger die Situation in der das Buch "The Hitch Hiker`s Guide to the Galaxy" im September 1979 herausgegeben wurde. Es erschien sofort für eine wirklich lange Zeit auf der Sunday Times Bestseller Liste auf Platz 1. Klar, irgend jemand mußte die Radiosendung gehört haben. Der Guide erschien bis heute in so vielen Formen: Bücher, Radio, Hörspiel, Fernsehen und demnächst auch als Spielfilm, und jedes mal mit einem anderen Handlungsverlauf, so dass es oft zu Verwirrungen kommt.

Extractions: "Don't Panic" - The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy "I was hitchhiking around Europe in 1971, when I was 18, with this copy of A Hitchhiker's Guide to Europe. At one point I found myself lying in the middle of a field, a little bit drunk, when it occurred to me that somebody should write a Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. It didn't occur to me that it might actually be me years later." - Douglas Adams So Long, and Thanks for all the Fish The Hitchhiker's Guide and the other books in "an increasingly misnamed trilogy" are some of the best loved books in science fiction. As well as best loved radio drama and computer game. Douglas Adams had one of those wonderfully inventive minds that could find the absurd in the mundane, clothe it in the bizarre and present it as at once amusing and revealing.
