An Entity of Type : owl:Thing, within Data Space : 134.155.108.49:8890 associated with source dataset(s)

An independently produced, short-lived pamphlet series published in the early twentieth century covering the speculative topics of "technology, imagination, and investigation". The Future Fire was printed on a cheap press, hand-corrected and circulated free of cost in what were apparently very large numbers. Very few issues survive, however, and those that do are eagerly collected by a small number of eccentric ephemerists. It is believed that only ten or so issues were ever produced, those surviving numbered 1905.01, 1905.04, 1906.05, and 1906.06.

abstract
  • An independently produced, short-lived pamphlet series published in the early twentieth century covering the speculative topics of "technology, imagination, and investigation". The Future Fire was printed on a cheap press, hand-corrected and circulated free of cost in what were apparently very large numbers. Very few issues survive, however, and those that do are eagerly collected by a small number of eccentric ephemerists. It is believed that only ten or so issues were ever produced, those surviving numbered 1905.01, 1905.04, 1906.05, and 1906.06. The editor of the pamphlet, who also wrote much of the non-fiction content, wrote under the pseudonym Angjel, but is thought to have been a Russian inventor living in exile in Dublin (although copies of the magazine also circulated in London and New York literary clubs). Very few of the authors and reviewers who appeared in the pages are names that we are now able to trace (although it would be tempting to identify a certain "Herbert W." who signed a book review in issue 1906.06). The contents of the surviving issues are as follows:
