Après Dagon, HPL pose une nouvelle pierre angulaire à la ziggourat de son œuvre avec la mythique Polaris, une nouvelle parait-il située dans les Contrées du Rêve.Un épisode encore plus décousu que d'habitude suite à une accumulation de problèmes techniques rencontrés en amont de l'enregistrement, et du coup pas de timecode dans cet épisode, vous êtes condamnés à tout écouter.Au menu : dérive sémantique, anthropomorphisation gothique et twist narratif à la Total Recall.Erratum : L'UAPA désigne évidemment la United Amateur Press Association, et non pas la United Amateur Press of AmericaThe King in Yellow n'est pas l'œuvre de Arthur Machen mais de Robert William Chambers !Co-host : Audrey PatryMusique : Empty Shell AxiomSources : I Am Providence, The Life and Times of H.P.

Nous continuons à explorer la biographie de Lovecraft pour comprendre son œuvre, et nous entrons enfin dans le Mythe de Cthulhu, ou presque, puisque l'œuvre du jour est Dagon, écrit en juillet 1917.Certains critiques vous diront que Dagon ne fait pas partie du Mythe : ils ont raison mais ils ont tort. En effet, à l'époque où HPL écrit Dagon, le Mythe n'existe pas. Mais à partir du moment où The Shadow Over Innsmouth ajoute l'Ordre Esotérique de Dagon au Mythe, on peut considérer que Dagon a été rétroactivement ajouté au Mythe par Lovecraft. De plus, il est évident que Dagon, influencé par Fishhead, préfigure la création du Mythe. Change my mind ! Au programme : britannisme, monstres marins et tentations militaires, le tout assaisonné de la légendaire thalassophobie de Lovecraft, ainsi que de celle d'Audrey. 00:00 Lovecraft et la Première Guerre mondiale16:15 Dagon35:00 Aux origines de la thalassophobie52:55 Les influences derrière DagonErratum : le journal amateur édité par HPL s'appelait The Conservative.Co-host : Audrey PatryMusique : Empty Shell AxiomSources : I Am Providence, The Life and Times of H.P.

Nous continuons à explorer la biographie de Lovecraft pour analyser son œuvre, et aujourd'hui nous traversons le gouffre qui sépare la sortie de The Alchemist en 1908 de celle de The Tomb en 1917, quelques mois seulement avant l'écriture de Dagon.Au programme : illusions perdues, réclusion volontaire, déclassement, clashs épistolaires, journalisme amateur, et inexorable retour au gothique. 00:00 Le 4ème "nervous breakdown" de Lovecraft25:51 The Argosy Controversy et le journalisme amateur46:54 The Tomb (1917)Erratum concernant le concept de Kairos : “Le kairos est un concept qui, adjoint à l'aiôn et au chronos, permet, sinon de définir le temps, du moins de situer les événements selon cette dimension. Faire le bon acte au bon moment participe au Kaïros. Le kairos est donc « le temps T » de l'opportunité : avant est trop tôt, et après trop tard. In fine, l'expression « instant d'inflexion » semble convenir : « Maintenant est le bon moment pour agir. » Kairos a donné en latin opportunitas (opportunité, saisir l'occasion).” (source Wikipedia)Co-host : Audrey PatryMusique : Empty Shell AxiomSources : I Am Providence, The Life and Times of H.P.

En 1908, H. P. Lovecraft fait ses premiers pas dans la littérature gothique. Pour mieux apprécier sa nouvelle L'alchimiste, nous analysons la biographie de Lovecraft sur la période 1905 - 1908, l'œuvre fondatrice du mouvement gothique (Le château d'Otrante) et l'impact de Poe sur le génie de Providence. Au programme : philosophie cosmiciste, châteaux délabrés et exposition drop, le tout assaisonné de nos digressions non-euclidiennes.Notez qu'après le point biographique, on a fait pas mal d'aller-retour entre L'alchimiste et le mouvement gothique, donc les timecodes sont uniquement là à titre indicatif :0:00 Crise de nerf tranquille : le fil biographique33:52 Le château d'Otrante et le mouvement gothique51:40 L'ombre de la Maison Usher Co-host : Audrey PatryMusique : Empty Shell AxiomSources : I Am Providence, The Life and Times of H.P.

Reading 60-66: Supernatural Horror in Literature Supernatural Horror in Literatureis a long essay by the horror writer H. P. Lovecraft surveying the topic of horror fiction. It was written between November 1925 and May 1927 and revised during 1933–1934. It was first published in 1927 in the one-issue magazine The Recluse. More recently, it was included in the collection Dagon and Other Macabre Tales(1965). Lovecraft examines the beginnings of weird fiction in the gothic novel (relying greatly on Edith Birkhead's 1921 survey The Tale of Terror) and traces its development through such writers as Ambrose Bierce, Nathaniel Hawthorne, and Edgar Allan Poe (who merits his own chapter). Lovecraft names as the four "modern masters" of horror: Algernon Blackwood, Lord Dunsany, M. R. James, and Arthur Machen. An H. P. Lovecraft Encyclopedia terms the work "HPL's most significant literary essay and one of the finest historical analyses of horror literature." Upon reading the essay, M. R. James proclaimed Lovecraft's style "most offensive". However, Edmund Wilson, who was not an admirer of Lovecraft's fiction, praised the essay as a "really able piece of work...he had read comprehensively in this field—he was strong on the Gothic novelists—and writes about it with much intelligence". David G. Hartwell has called "Supernatural Horror in Literature", "the most important essay on horror literature".

Hoi and Jeff discuss H.P. Lovecraft’s At the Mountains of Madness & Other Tales of Terror with special guest Bob “The Voice” Brinkman! Given H.P. Lovecraft’s omnipresence today, it’s easy to forget that he had largely faded out of reading public’s mind within a few years of his death in 1937. August Derleth and Donald Wandrei did their best to keep Lovecraft in print by founding the small press Arkham House in 1939, but the publishing house’s output for its first 20 years was mostly limited to high quality hardcovers in short print runs. Arkham House was often on tenuous financial footing from its very founding, but the snowballing revival of interest in Lovecraft’s Weird Tales compatriot Robert E. Howard in the 1960s seems to have also raised Lovecraft’s visibility. Arkham House seized the opportunity by releasing three newly re-edited omnibus volumes of Lovecraft’s fiction, The Dunwich Horror & Others (1963, revised 1985), At the Mountains of Madness & Other Novels (1964, revised 1986), and Dagon & Other Macabre Tales (1965, revised 1986) and then licensing the stories for paperback publication. At the Mountains of Madness & Other Tales of Terror (Beagle/Ballantine Books, 1971) was a slimmed-down version of the Arkham House hardcover and featured the novel At the Mountains of Madness and the short stories “The Shunned House”, “Dreams in the Witch-House”, and “The Statement of Randolph Carter”.
Dave, Jami and Tony explore some of their favorite examples of media from in Japan, including the Mother series of video games, the film 13 Assassins, the graphic novel Lafcadio Hearn's "The Faceless Ghost" and Other Macabre Tales from Japan, and the movie R100.

TextbookStuff.com presents Edgar Allan Poe - The Pit and the Pendulum & Other Macabre Tales. Read by David Soul. Edgar Allan Poe (1809-49) was an American poet, writer, editor and literary critic. Best known for his tales of mystery and the macabre, Poe’s full-blooded Gothic style influenced generations of writers, filmmakers and musicians, from Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and Charles Baudelaire to Roger Corman and Lou Reed. The five tales collected here range from the famous to the obscure, but each displays Poe's unique sense of the macabre and his love for the baroque. A victim of the Inquisition finds himself in a nightmarish torture chamber, a castle is besieged by plague, a man becomes obsessed by the evil eye of his fellow lodger, a mesmerist suspends a man's life at the point of death and a jester takes his revenge on his cruel employers.
