Hugo Gernsback [SEP] Science fiction
Gernsback provided a forum for the modern genre of science fiction in 1926 by founding the first magazine dedicated to it, "Amazing Stories". The inaugural April issue comprised a one-page editorial and reissues of six stories, three less than ten years old and three by Poe, Verne, and Wells. He said he became interested in the concept after reading a translation of the work of Percival Lowell as a child. His idea of a perfect science fiction story was "75 percent literature interwoven with 25 percent science". He also played an important role in starting science fiction fandom, by organizing the Science Fiction League and by publishing the addresses of people who wrote letters to his magazines.
