Claire and Tod discuss HP Lovecraft's "The White Ship," first published in 1919 in The United Amateur. What better way to celebrate ☘️ St. Patrick's Day ☘️ than talking about Lord Dunsany at some length! Also, Claire, a sophisticated and educated lady of Irish decent, learns what a shillelagh is in this episode, so that's a bit of St. Patty's fun!Links for you:Lord Samuel's Lovecraft Metal Spotify PlaylistTod's Dreams and Nightmares Apple Music PlaylistCheck in on Fantasy Flight's Dark Side of the Moon at Board Game Geek, but it's out of print so you'll probably have to go to eBay to find itA short article about Lovecraft and Lord DunsanyA free version of Idle Days on the River Yann by Lord DunsanyDel Rey's Dream Cycle collection, which you can of course read for free at https://hplovecraft.comWeirdly, I don't think we swear at all in this episode, but I'll mark it explicit just to be on the safe side.Oh, and I spent a fair amount of time learning about The White Ship Disaster at Wikipedia, and then went down a rabbit hole learning about Empress Matilda and The Anarchy, but alas, it didn't make it into the show.

HP Lovecraft's "The White Ship," first published in the November, 1919 issue of The United Amateur, and first read here by Tod in March of 2025. As this is a horror podcast, it may not be for everyone. Specifically, this story contains descriptions of fanciful, far off lands, a celestial bird of impossibly beautiful plumage, the river Narg, a city paved with bones, and the rejection of paradise. If these elements are likely to disturb you, voyage no further with this episode.You can read this story yourself at HPLovecraft.com, or enjoy the ambience by itself as Creaky Wooden Pirate Ship by Captain Sleepy.You can text us now.

Tod and Claire discuss HP Lovecraft's "A Reminiscence of Dr. Samuel Johnson," which was published in the November, 1917 issue of the United Amateur under the name "Humphrey Littlewit, Esq." and have a couple different takes on this story. Is it self satire? Probably. Is it actually a story about imposter syndrome? Maybe! Is it perhaps the most cosmically horrifying story of them all, since even if you're 200 years old, your life may well be vanishingly insignificant? I kind of think so! Happy New Year, and hope you have a couple hundred more!Oh, you want more Sam Jackson lines?

A reading of HP Lovecraft's "A Reminiscence of Dr. Samuel Johnson," first published in the November, 1917 issue of the United Amateur, and first read here by Tod in December, 2024. This this work is a rarity in Lovecraft's oeuvre, as it was intended as a bit of satirical parody of Lovecraft himself.As this is pointedly not a horror story, there are no content warnings for this episode. However, you are still advised to steer clear if you are troubled by excessive name-dropping, overblown intellectual pretension, imagined slights and reactions to the same, or the very concept of 18th Century style satire.You can read this story yourself at https://hplovecraft.com/writings/texts/fiction/rdsj.aspx , or enjoy the backing ambience, "Crowded Local Tavern," by Sword Coast Soundscapes at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EULoybB2Nsw on Youtube.You can text us now.

Nuestros compañeros de Pequod Llibres y El Laberinto de Ideas han tenido a bien el invitarnos a participar de manera indirecta en su tertulia dedicada a H.P. Lovecraft y por supuesto no queríamos pasar por alto la oportunidad de homenajear una vez más al maestro, genio creador del horror cósmico, sumo sacerdote de los pavores tentaculares, portavoz póstumo de toda una generación de escritores de lo fantástico...Y por eso les hemos preparado Ex Oblivion, un breve poema en prosa escrito por el maestro a finales de 1920, y publicado por Lovecraft en su The United Amateur en 1921 bajo el seudónimo de Charles Ward. Este relato marca algunas de las pautas de su personalidad y su literatura onírica... Tenue y fatalista, huye de sus habituales terrores tentaculares... Pero vayan con cuidado amigos, porque el poder de Lovecraft sobre la página puede abrir las puertas de sus mentes, puertas a las que no se debe llamar, puertas que asoman la mirada a una dimensión prohibida y blasfema, allá donde los primigenios bailan al son de canciones blasfemas. No importa donde se escondan, una vez se introduzcan en el mundo lovecraftiano, la música de los primigenios les envolverá para siempre...

En Noviembre de 1919, la revista literaria United Amateur publicó por primera vez uno de los relatos más singulares del maestro Howard Philips Lovecraft. Ajeno a las habituales encarnaciones del horror cósmico, nuestro relato de hoy, nos traslada al onírico viaje de Basil Elton guardafaro de North Point, a través de un oceano de terribles y fabulosos descubrimientos. El prodigioso país de Yann descrito por Lor Dunsany, La antigua ciudad de Carcosa caracterizada por Ambrose Bierce; la envidiada Sarnath, La desconocida Ulthar, la sumergida Ri-lie o Ilrem la ciudad de los pilares, donde se esconden los prohibidos secretos del desierto; son sólo algunos de los ejemplos que marcaron el afán del maestro Lovecraft por las maravillosas ciudades del ensueño, cuyos puertos visitaremos esta noche, a bordo de El Barco BlancoY si bien no podemos considerar que el maestro atienda su particular afición por los terrores arcanos, El Barco Blanco es uno de los textos que mejor reflejan las fuentes de las que se nutrió su literatura onírica. Desde su mas tierna infancia, Lovecraft devoraría en la biblioteca de los Philips, los textos e ilustraciones mitologicas que irían acomodando algunos de los pilares de su posterior cosmogonía, en la que los hombres y sus vanales esperanzas, nada pueden hacer frente a la infinita indiferencia cosmica y el poder incomprensible del caos reptante. La afición de Lovecraft por las leyendas de antiguas metropolis olvidadas y por las historia en las que los secretos de estos dioses se ocultan por toda la eternidad a nuestros ojos se reflejaríá ampliamente en textos posteriores, como la maldición que cayó sobre Sarnath, "La Búsqueda Onírica De La Desconocida Kadath" o la terrible ciudad sumergida de Rilie, mencionada de este modo en "La Llamada de Cthulhu": "...llegaron a un litoral de lodo, fango y ciclópea mampostería que no podía ser otra cosa que la sustancia tangible del terror supremo de la tierra: la ciudad cadavérica y de pesadilla de R'lyeh, construida hacia incontables eones por repugnantes figuras que procedian de las estrellas sin luz. Allí yacían el Gran Cthulhu y sus hordas, ocultos bajo bóvedas cubiertas de fango verdoso; enviando de nuevo, tras incalculables ciclos temporales, aquellos pensamientos que extendían el miedo por los sueños de los más sensibles, a la vez que apremiaban a sus fieles a lanzarse en pos de un peregrinaje por su liberación y la restauración de su imperio en la tierra..." Asi pues, No lo duden amigos, si creen como nosotros que en su fosa septica habita un ser inmemorial de repugnante e ilimitado poder, y tratan desesperadamente de librarse de su pesadillesca presencia escribannos a noviembrenocturno@gmail.com y les enviaremos a nuestro grupo de especialistas en primigenios, para que den fe de su eminente presencia.
