A Eureka Moment? John Carter, Edgar Rice Burroughs, and Literary Empathy - an article on the dichotomy between a popularly appreciated and critically unappreciated character.

:) I have just started my 2nd read of this one, & it is even more exciting than the 1st volume! Actually, I just finished chapter 6. By the content of this story, I would say that Burroughs held a dim view of religion, as its refutation is featured prominently herein. Perhaps, I should say life...

I mentioned that I had read the entire series some time ago, & just the other day, I heard that THE LIBRARY OF CONGRESS was now making this available for on-line reading. I doubt that those with foreign IPs will be able to do so, though. http://read.gov/ is the site's main page; I do not know...

Was this book the basis for the much later film that I remember,or just a titular coincidence? The Land That Time Forgot (Land that Time Forgot, book 1) by Edgar Rice Burroughs

One of the earliest commercially successful science fantasy novel series was Edgar Rice Burroughs' Barsoom series, and A Princess of Mars was the first book in the cycle. Though it was not as commercially successful as Burroughs' later Tarzan novels, he did make his mark on SF with these books...

I've read the first two Tarzan novels by Edgar Rice Burroughs and I have noticed that there are many others. What I'm wondering is that are they all worth reading? Does the quality of the books deteriate or are they all of the same high standard of the first two?

.....How come there isn't a thread for ERB in the Authors Section? He's my all-time favorite autho:cool:r. .....RVM45

Following on my previous Robert E. Howard question, I'd like to ask the same question about ERB: what should I read?

Here's a slighly offbeat tribute to Edgar Rice Burrough's classic Princess Of Mars...:) YouTube - A Princess of Mars

Hi all, new here but not to reading. I am on a classical kick lately and am looking for some collections of ERB's stuff.... John Carter of Mars and Tarzan Are either of these in collected form? Like the Robert E Howard Conan/Solomon/Bran stuff or the collected works of Doyle and Holmes...

Part of the Mars Series Science fiction is always at its best when the language is kept simple and the story familiar. Parallels with our own world then start falling out of the trees like coconuts for all to admire. 1/ Mars is dieing. It has been destroyed by the Martians themselves and...

The Caspak Trilogy (The Land that Time Forgot, The People that Time Forgot, Out of Time's Abyss) by Edgar Rice Burroughs. Although fans might dispute harshly, I believe this to be the best of Burrough's series that I have read. Whilst Tarzan may have the apes and the unforgettable character...

Please begin the discussion of July's title, Tarzan of the Apes by Edgar Rice Burroughs. My first thoughts: 1) This is a much older book, does it stand the test of time? Or do some of the thoughts and ideas presented betray its age? 2) Any thoughts on the comments the author was trying to...

While I was reading a "Princecess of Mars." I noticed a few picular remark about the Green Men. John Carter Who I think is ERB's voice. Stated that the no private property part of the socetiy. lead to equal work equal share mentallily. A government that looked out for the best interests of...
