One-Act Play Collections - Book 6, Part 2 Title: One-Act Play Collections - Volume 6 Overview: This collection includes ten one-act plays by David Belasco, Arnold Bennett, Hereward Carrington, Lewis Carroll, Lord Dunsany, John Galsworthy, Charlotte Perkins Gilman, Maurice Maeterlinck, Anna Bird Stewart, and Alfred, Lord Tennyson. The Book Coordinators for this collection were Charlotte Duckett, Michele Eaton, Elizabeth Klett, Loveday, Piotr Nater, Algy Pug, Eden Rea-Hedrick, Todd, and Chuck Williamson. A one-act play is a play that has only one act and is distinct from plays that occur over several acts. One-act plays may consist of one or more scenes. The 20-40 minute play has emerged as a popular subgenre of the one-act play, especially in writing competitions. One-act plays make up the overwhelming majority of Fringe Festival shows including at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. The origin of the one-act play may be traced to the very beginning of recorded Western drama: in ancient Greece, Cyclops, a satyr play by Euripides, is an early example. The satyr play was a farcical short work that came after a trilogy of multi-act serious drama plays. A few notable examples of one-act plays emerged before the 19th century including various versions of the Everyman play and works by Moliere and Calderon. One act plays became more common in the 19th century and is now a standard part of repertory theatre and fringe festivals.

John Crowley's Little, Big is, at once, a family saga, a fairy tale, an occult thriller, an idyll, a dystopia, as well as a meditation on myth and history, the real and the fantasy, memory and imagination. Little, Big is also a book that JF and Phil have been planning to discuss for as long as Weird Studies has existed. In this episode, they are joined by writer and scholar Erik Davis to explore the enduring charms and mysteries of one of the greatest—and most underrated—American novels of the late twentieth century.

La guardia nocturna (The Death Watch) —también conocido en español como: El Visitante Nocturno— es un relato de terror del escritor norteamericano Hugh B. Cave (1910-2004), publicado originalmente en la edición de junio-julio de 1939 en la revista Weird Tales, y luego reeditado en la antología de 1977: Murgunstrumm y otros (Murgunstrumm and Others). La guardia nocturna es uno de los grandes cuentos de Hugh B. Cave, relata la historia de Harry Crandall, encargado de monitorear las llamadas de radio de emergencia en el área de los pantanos de Everglades, Florida; quien descubre, a través de Peter Ingram, un uso novedoso e inquietante para las frecuencias de radio: la posibilidad de invocar seres interdimensionales. SPOILERS. La guardia nocturna es la única contribución de Hugh B. Cave a los Mitos de Cthulhu de H.P. Lovecraft, que además combina algunas menciones a otros universos literarios, como Bethmoora, de Lord Dunsany. Aquí, Peter Ingram, obsesionado con la muerte de su cuñado, Mark, comienza a estudiar obsesivamente algunos libros prohibidos (ver: Libros apócrifos en los Mitos de Cthulhu). No se menciona específicamente ninguno de ellos, pero podemos presumir la presencia del Necronomicón. Estos conocimientos profanos son aplicados sobre la experiencia de Ingram en todo lo relacionado con las frecuencias de radio. Su ambición es ponerse en contacto son inteligencias de otras dimensiones, entre ellas, el mismísimo Nyarlathotep, Hastur, y otras entidades de los Mitos (ver: Dioses y criaturas de los Mitos de Cthulhu). La guardia nocturna realiza un intento muy interesante por reconciliar la tecnología con el ocultismo. Por un lado, tenemos al narrador, Harry Crandall, a cargo de la guardia nocturna de la estación de radio; por el otro, a Ingram, quien al principio intenta probarle a su esposa, Elaine, obsesionada con el espiritismo tras la muerte de su hermano, Mark, que es imposible comunicarse con los muertos, y mucho menos regresarlos a la vida. Sin embargo, pone todo su empeño en comunicarse con el más allá a través de la tecnología (ver: Las nuevas tecnologías en la mecánica del Horror). Podemos asumir que Ingram cree estar fabricando un dispositivo de radio para comunicarse con Nyarlathotep, cuando en realidad es este quien le brinda la apertura mental y los conocimientos para hacerlo luego de que su esposa, Elaine, lo invoca mediante letanías tradicionales. En cualquier caso, y como a menudo sucede en los relatos de Lovecraft, el conocimiento de estos temas arcanos conduce a la locura y la muerte, en el mejor de los casos, o incluso a algo peor que eso. La guardia nocturna es un valioso aporte a los Mitos de Cthulhu, precisamente por ser la única contribución de Hugh B. Cave a este formidable ciclo literario. También vale la pena mencionar que el cuento fue escrito un par de años después de la muerte de Lovecraft, y publicado en una revista, Weird Tales, con la cual el autor no tenía demasiada afinidad. Todo esto, creo, puede ser interpretado como señales de un sincero y respetuoso homenaje al maestro de Providence.

"La Ciudad Ociosa" (The Idle City) es un relato fantástico del escritor británico Lord Dunsany (1878-1957), publicado en la antología de 1910: Cuentos de un soñador (A Dreamer's Tales). Si bien es cierto que La ciudad ociosa es uno de los mejores relatos de Lord Dunsany, también es justo decir que es uno de los menos conocidos de su obra. Recién obtuvo su merecido reconocimiento como verdadero clásico del género en 1940, cuando el escritor argentino Jorge Luis Borges lo incluyó en la mítica colección: Antología de la literatura fantástica.

Esta noche, en nuestro #podcast de iVoox, tenemos el privilegio de estrenar ficción sonora del maestro de maestros, Lord Dunsany y sus "Cuentos de un Soñador" 🌜 "Poltarnees, la que mira hacia el mar". Edward John Moreton Drax Plunkett, mas conocido como Lord Dunsany, se ha convertido en una de las figuras fundamentales en el desarrollo del género fantástico, su influencia es visible en el trabajo de innumerables autores y trabajos posteriores y no arriesgaríamos demasiado afirmando que su obra es una de las mas importantes de la historia de la literatura universal. En esta ocasión rendimos homenaje a uno de sus cuentos más celebrados, uno de los que más impacto causó en la obra de la maestra Ursula K. Le Guin y auténtico deleite para los amantes de la literatura fantástica.

Los gatos de Ulthar (The Cats of Ulthar) es un relato fantástico del escritor norteamericano H.P. Lovecraft (1890-1937), publicado originalmente en la edición del 20 de noviembre de 1920 de la revista The Tryout, y luego reeditado en la edición de febrero de 1926 de Weird Tales. Más tarde volvería a aparecer en la antología de Arkham House de 1939: El extraño y otros (The Outsider and Others). [ver: Lovecraft, los gatos y un paseo por Ulthar]Los gatos de Ulthar, uno de los grandes cuentos de H.P. Lovecraft, y probablemente uno de los mejores relatos de gatos del período, nos sitúa en la mítica región de Ulthar, y cuenta la historia de dos ancianos maliciosos que encontraban regocijo matando a los gatos de la aldea.Cierto día unos peregrinos llegan a Ulthar; y uno de ellos, Menes, advierte que su propio gato ha desaparecido. Alertado de los hábitos homicidas de los dos ancianos, Menes realiza un poderoso conjuro, provocando que todos los gatos de la región acechen la cabaña de los ancianos y venguen del modo más atroz el crimen de sus hermanos.Los gatos de Ulthar, el cual refleja el afecto y admiración del autor por los felinos, pertenece al ciclo dunsaniano de H.P. Lovecraft; es decir, a sus cuentos inspirados en el estilo de Lord Dunsany, sobre todo en: Días de ocio en el Yann (Idle Days on the Yann).Si bien Los gatos de Ulthar no pertenece a los Mitos de Cthulhu, el nombre de la región de Ulthar es mencionado en La declaración de Randolph Carter (The Statement of Randolph Carter), uno de los cuentos más notables de aquel ciclo. Del mismo modo, Atal, el hijo del posadero, vuelve aparecer en Los otros dioses (The Other Gods).

 A bit of a dark story from famed fantasist and progenitor of modern fantasy Lord Dunsany. Dunsany's speciality was writing stories that felt like ‘real' myths from a forgotten time in our world and this is no exception. The story of a great city, whose greatness and the warriors that led to it was in the past. And the challenges that arise from that. This one does get a bit exciting, but the cadence is mysterious so I'm sure you will fall asleep before the exciting bit arrive. And those are only relative anyway.

In the second instalment of The Gould Standard's sweeping conversation with the best-selling author Neil Gaiman, we venture deeper into his extraordinary literary odyssey, navigating the fine line between artistry and entertainment. Neil shares insights into the unexpected and profound connections his creations, especially the “Sandman” and “American Gods,” have forged between him and his readers. He unveils the magic of his creative process, an alchemical blend of multi-dimensional elements that fuels his storytelling. Neil takes a stand against the rising tide of book censorship, highlighting the indispensable role of libraries as gateways to a tapestry of ideas and inner worlds. He champions literature's ability to ignite minds and spur critical thinking, all while paying a vibrant tribute to the influential authors like Lord Dunsany, H.P. Lovecraft and Harlan Ellison, whose enduring impact continues to shape the world of literature and imagination.

¡Vótame en los Premios iVoox 2023! Los Cuentos de un soñador, publicados por Lord Dunsany allá por 1910, ofrecen a sus lectores exactamente lo que prometen: una geografía de aconteceres, encuentros y escenarios del sueño que a veces se inspiran en la mundo real, o engendran reinos completamente fantásticos, o que no tardan en fusionarse en una hiperrealidad mucho más parecida a la nuestra de lo que nos atreveríamos a confesar... En ese otro mundo al que pertenecen los viajantes oníricos, se alzan imponentes las torres de plata de los vigías del norte y los jardines encantados del país de Yann y los barcos atraviesan el mar Cerenario entre los pilares de basalto del oeste... En ese otro mundo que asoma repentinamente en la realidad, hay quienes dicen haberse encontrado furtivamente, en sueños... Sin conocerse previamente... A caso manejan los mismos lugares habitados mientras dormían? Acomódense pues amigos en su cubil favorito, apaguen las luces, enciendan una vela y prepárense para disfrutar de un nuevo y enigmático viaje, a la eterna y encantada Bethmoora... en el inesperado encuentro con el hombre del haschisch.

Today's poem is by Edward John Moreton Drax Plunkett, 18th Baron of Dunsany FRSL (/dʌnˈseɪni/; 24 July 1878 – 25 October 1957, usually Lord Dunsany) was an Anglo-Irish writer and dramatist. Over 90 volumes of fiction, essays, poems and plays appeared in his lifetime,[1]: 29 (I.A.92)  and a modest amount of material was published posthumously. He gained a name in the 1910s as a great writer in the English-speaking world. Best known today are the 1924 fantasy novel, The King of Elfland's Daughter, and his first book, The Gods of Pegāna, which depicts a fictional pantheon. Many critics feel his early work laid grounds for the fantasy genre.—bio via Wikipedia This is a public episode.

Edward John Moreton Drax Plunkett, 18th Baron Dunsany Edward John Moreton Draw Plunkett, or Lord Dunsany was known to his friends as Eddie. Lord Dunsany was born in 1878 in London England and died in 1957 in Dublin Ireland.   Though born in England, he was heir to the oldest inhabited house in Ireland: Dunsany Castle near Tara. In County Meath. He worked to support the Abbey Theatre in Dublin with W B Yeats and Lady Gregory. In addition he was chess and pistol champion of Ireland. He was also a great traveller and, as you can tell from this story: he was a habitual hunter with horse and hounds. He was a prolific writer produced over ninety volumes of fiction, essays, poems and plays. His most famous book is possibly The King of Elfland's Daughter and he is thought to be the first fantasy writer who set out the later genre that produced the Narnia books and The Lord of the Rings and ultimately Game of Thrones.  Thirteen At Table This story was suggested by Mike Jenkins. We have a beautiful description of the Kent countryside on a spring evening as they follow the fox. This is indeed a fox hunt and may not be to everyone's taste but is part of the story. I like the idea that a gentleman at hounds may request a bed from any other gentleman who has a gentleman's house. It's s simple tale thereafter. We have host, Sir Richard Arlen, who says he has lived a wicked life. What he has done to this succession of women that means he has to dine with them every night for the past fifty years is not explained. But we understand he has wronged them and we guess perhaps he was somewhat of a rake. As the dinner goes on. It is explained that Mr Linton drinks a lot as he is dehydrated. He is also tired. He starts off by humouring the guest and then takes to his story of his wonderful twenty point hunt. The best hunt that ever was and a tale that grows in the telling. I am thinking this is a good humoured dig at huntsmen and their stories.  And as he feels the need for an audience to tell his tale, slowly the ghosts become visible to Mr Linton and he begins to treat them as real people rather than as figments of his imagination. It is so slowly and delicately done that it is very effective and smooth.  In the end he offends the ghosts by something he said. They are clearly very sensitive and collect slights. He is mortified, but the host is supremely grateful.  There is a happy ending in that Sir Richard Arlen It's a humorous and pretty story. I haven't read much Dunsany, but I'm keen to read more now.
