   Extractions: Cordwainer Smith A long, long time ago, I read the one oft collected story of Cordwainer Smith, "Scanners Live In Vain". It is a really jarring work; utterly strange in an implied, vague way that hints at a Weird Universe all around it, just at the edge of the reader's vision. Bizarre post-human biological technology, a Space that is a place of pain and madness, and a humankind transformed into a somehow fascistic hybrid species that is more than a step away from Us. The story whispers at the price, and the glory, of transcending our normal evolution, and casts the future as a place of both power and terror. And I sort of knew that Smith's work was metafictional, cohesively spanning a Universe known as The Instrumentality of Mankind, but it was awhile before I got my hands on an extended collection of his work and fully explored this place. I will never be the same. The Instrumentality Universe could be called a fix-up universe, a loosely organized set of sub stories that somehow come together to form a whole. Smith's very strange spaceflight tropes, in which space is a place that the unshielded human cannot go without suffering unbearable pain and terrifying madness, clearly have metaphorical implications that sit quietly underneath the narrative. Space itself has an almost Ptolemaic structure, a fitting place for Smith's often archetypical storytelling. Some of his stories partake of classical Chinese narrative devices; Smith grew up in China Before Mao, an old China hand. And he was a spook. His book

   Extractions: Profiled by Galen Strickland Cordwainer Smith - the most frequently used pseudonym of Dr. Paul Myron Anthony Linebarger (1913-1966). The son of a U. S. diplomat, he was born in Milwaukee - his father wanted to be sure he would be eligible for the presidency - but spent most of his youth in China. He was god-son to Sun Yat-sen, who gave him the name Lin Bah Loh (Forest of Incandescent Bliss). He was educated in China, Japan, and Europe, and became expert in psychoanalysis and "brainwashing" techniques. In 1948 he wrote Psychological Warfare , still considered the definitive text on the subject. Serving with the Army Intelligence Corps during World War 2, he played an active role in propping up the regime of Chiang Kai-shek before the communist takeover. Photo Courtesy of cordwainer-smith.com Later he served as a military advisor in Korea and Malaya - but not Vietnam, as he was opposed to U. S. involvement there - and was also an advisor to President Kennedy. His proudest accomplishment in Korea was the orchestration of the surrender of Chinese troops who normally felt it dishonorable to give up their weapons. Through leaflets air-dropped behind their lines the Chinese were persuaded to come forward, their arms over their heads, chanting the phrases "honor," "duty," and "humanity," which recited in the proper order sounded like "I surrender" in English. His first SF tale, "War No. 81-Q," was written at the age of 15 for a high school journal. In the late '40s he wrote two non-SF novels under the pseudonym Felix C. Forrest and one as Carmichael Smith. After 1950 he would write SF exclusively, all under the name of Cordwainer Smith. Almost all of his SF, including his first story, is part of a series known collectively as the "Instrumentality of Mankind," which covers several millenia of man's future both on Earth and in the exploration of space. The style of the stories ranged from darkly serious to highly satiric and some incorporated intricate Chinese narrative techniques. As in

   Extractions: Home Ex Libris Authors : Cordwainer Smith rediscovery of man Have you seen our weblog or our monthly book review? Cordwainer Smith is not as well known as Isaac Asimov or Robert A. Heinlein , and that's a sad thing. Smith had a weird, quirky imagination, and a unique voice. With one exception he wrote only short stories, and the flavor of them is unmistakable. Some are well known, "Scanners Live In Vain" and "The Ballad of Lost C'mell" being the most familiar. Even the titles are unmistakeable: consider "No, No, Not Rogov", "The Dead Lady of Clown Town", "Golden The Ship Was, Oh, Oh, Oh", and "The Crime and Glory of Commander Suzdal". "Cordwainer Smith" is, of course, a pseudonym; the man was actually named Paul Linebarger, and he was as fascinating as his work. Raised in China (Sun-Yat Sen was his godfather), he became an expert on the country; he also wrote what long was the standard text on psychological warfare. One's reaction on hearing that term today is decidedly negative, but we shouldn't do Smith a disservice. His love for his fellow men shines out in every story he wrote; it's one of the things that makes him memorable. Smith's daughter, Rosana Hart, has established a web page to her father's memory:

   Extractions: SMITH Cordwainer Nato nel 1913, l'americano Paul Byron Anthony Linebarger prende il nome di Cordwainer smith negli anni cinquanta, per firmare i suoi racconti di fantascienza. In precedenza era stato studioso di problemi asiatici e di guerra psicologica, docente universitario e agente segreto per gli USA in Cina. La sua invenzione di un intero universo, definito Instrumentality , lo fece apprezzare dalla critica degli anni sessanta, che gli riconosceva una non comune arte del raccontare. In un concatenarsi di complesse storie, nel ciclo della Strumentalità si narrano lotte tra pianeti, ribellioni contro dittature spaziali, viaggi avventurosi nel cosmo colonizzato dai terrestri, atrtraverso molti millenni.
