# REDIRECT A. E. van Vogt

* A. E. van Vogt, regarded as one of the most popular and complex science fiction writers during its " Golden Age "

Bordewijk, Jan L. and van Kaam, Ben ( 2002 ) “ Towards a New Classification of Tele-Information Services ,” in Denis McQuail ( ed.

Alfred Elton van Vogt ( April 26, 1912 – January 26, 2000 ) was a Canadian-born science fiction author regarded as one of the most popular and complex science fiction writers of the mid-twentieth century: the " Golden Age " of the genre.

Until he was four years old, van Vogt and his family spoke only a dialect of Low German in the home.

After starting his writing career by writing for " true confession " style pulp magazines like True Story, van Vogt decided to switch to writing something he enjoyed, science fiction.

In 1941, van Vogt decided to become a full-time writer, quitting his job at the Canadian Department of National Defence.

Extremely prolific for a few years, van Vogt wrote a large number of short stories.

Using what became one of van Vogt's recurring themes, it told the story of a 9-year-old superman living in a world in which his kind are slain by Homo sapiens.

In 1944, van Vogt moved to Hollywood, California, where his writing took on new dimensions after World War II.

At the same time, in his fiction, van Vogt was consistently sympathetic to absolute monarchy as a form of government.

In 1950, van Vogt was briefly appointed as head of L. Ron Hubbard's Dianetics operation in California.

The operation went broke 9 months later, but never went bankrupt, due to van Vogt's arrangements with creditors.

At the time of his interview with Charles Platt, van Vogt was still president of the Californian Association of Dianetic Auditors.

Between 1950 and 1960, van Vogt produced collections, notable fixups such as: The Mixed Men ( 1952 ) and The War Against the Rull ( 1959 ), and the two " Clane " novels, Empire of the Atom ( 1957 ) and The Wizard of Linn ( 1962 ), which were inspired ( like Asimov's Foundation series ) by the fall of the Roman Empire, specifically Claudius.

On January 26, 2000, van Vogt died in Los Angeles, USA from Alzheimer's disease, and was survived by his second wife, the former Lydia Bereginsky.

Critical opinion about the quality of van Vogt's work has been sharply divided.

In a chapter-long essay reprinted in In Search of Wonder, entitled " Cosmic Jerrybuilder: A. E. van Vogt ", Knight famously remarked that van Vogt " is no giant ; he is a pygmy who has learned to operate an overgrown typewriter.
