Polaris and Nyarlathotep are short stories by American horror fiction writer H. P. Lovecra. Howard Phillips Lovecra (August 20, 1890 - March 15, 1937) - known as H.P. Lovecra - was an American author who achieved posthumous fame through his influential works of horror fiction. Virtually unknown and only published in pulp magazines before he died in poverty, he is now regarded as one of the most significant 20th-century authors in his genre. Lovecra was born in Providence, Rhode Island, where he spent most of his life. His father was confined to a mental institution when Lovecra was three years old. His grandfather, a wealthy businessman, enjoyed storytelling and was an early influence. Intellectually precocious but sensitive, Lovecra began composing rudimentary horror tales by the age of eight, but suered from overwhelming feelings of anxiety. He encountered problems with classmates in school, and was kept at home by his highly strung and overbearing mother for illnesses that may have been psychosomatic. In high school, Lovecra was able to better connect with his peers and form friendships. He also involved neighborhood children in elaborate make-believe projects, only regretfully ceasing the activity at seventeen years old. Despite leaving school in 1908 without graduating - he found mathematics particularly diicult - Lovecra had developed a formidable knowledge of his favored subjects, such as history, linguistics, chemistry, and astronomy. Although he seems to have had some social life, attending meetings of a club for local young men, Lovecra, in early adulthood, was established in a reclusive nightbird lifestyle without occupation or pursuit of romantic adventures. In 1913 his conduct of a long running controversy in the letters page of a story...

  • Errata for H. P. Lovecraft: the Fiction
    Errata for H. P. Lovecraft: The Fiction The layout of the stories – specifically, the fact that the first line is printed in all capitals – has some drawbacks. In most cases, it doesn’t matter, but in “A Reminiscence of Dr. Samuel Johnson”, there is no way of telling that “Privilege” and “Reminiscence” are spelled with capitals.

  • A Tour Around the Dreamlands
    A Tour Around the Dreamlands The Dreamlands were created by H.P. Lovecraft. Lovecraft was obviously enthralled with the writings of Lord Dansany, but he also held a fascination for dreams. Numerous stories and ideas for stories were recorded by Lovecraft in his published work, personal notes, and correspondence. Lovecraft had an amazing ability to weave his core mythos ideas throughout most of his stories. Besides his staple of horror stories, he also wrote many stories about the Dreamlands. These stories, now collectively known as “the Dream Cycle”, include the following stories as the core source material for this tour around the Dreamlands. • Polaris • The White Ship • The Doom that Came to Sarnath • The Cats of Ulthar • Celephais • Ex Oblivione • The Quest of Iranon • The Other Gods • What the Moon Brings • The Dream Quest of Unknown Kadath • The Silver Key • The Strange High House in the Mist • Through the Gates of the Silver Key The story that most defines the Dreamlands is Lovecraft’s novella The Dream Quest of Unknown Kadath. Strangely enough, Lovecraft never published the story and thought it was a bit too much for most readers to swallow; however, it is the Dream Quest that provides so many rich details about the Dreamlands. This Gazetteer corresponds to the amazing map of the Dreamlands created by comic artist Jason B. Thompson. Thompson has worked in Manga and comics. As of this writing, he does artwork for Wizards of the Coast. He also draws maps and dungeons that are superbly drawn. The map he created of the Dreamlands can be ordered in a 24” x 36” poster that is a great gaming aid to use for your adventures.

  • Ah! Sweet Idiocy!
    AH! SWEET IDIOCY! THE FAN MEMOIRS of Francis T. Laney . Published by Francis T. Laney and Charles Burbee for FAPA at Los Angeles, Anno Domini 1948, This book‘is hand-set in Underwood Pica and printed on special sulphite base paper with little or no rag content. Like the fine books of the 18th and early 19th centuries, it is published unbound, so that gentlemen may have it embellished to match their libraries. **********************^************************************************** CONTENTS: Chapter I The Golden Dawn 1 II A Fan Is Born 7 III The Acolyte Gang 13 IV The Odyssey of the Weird Willys 22 V Utopia in Shangri-La 33 VI Thunder Over Paradise 54 VII On the Outside Looking In VIII On the Inside Looking Out 85 IX Ebb-Tide 100 X Indian Summer 114 XI Death of a Fan 125 PREAMBLE When an individual announces that he is through with fandom, that he is quitting the field; and then implements his withdrawal by pro­ ducing what is probably the largest one man project in fandom’s en­ tire history, it is evident that he owes someone an explanation of such contradictory conduct. My motivation for writing these memoirs was a decidedly mixed one. Very probably the strongest single incen­ tive was to try to explain to myself the inexplicable, to resolve if possible in my own mind the reasons which caused me to get so deeply involved in the amazing happenings which this book chronicles. Once the scales had completely fallen from my eyes and I saw fandom with pitiless objective clarity, I looked back upon Laney the fan with much the same sense of disbelief that a civilized man would feel upon being thrust suddenly face to face with a Yahoo.

  • A Functional Lexematic Analysis of a Horror Short Story
    C. I. F., XXIII-XXIV (1997-1998) 99-114 A FUNCTIONAL LEXEMATIC ANALYSIS OF A HORROR SHORT STORY María José Feu Guijarro Universidad de Castilla-La Mancha RESUMEN: El propósito de este artículo es estudiar la aplicación del Modelo Lexe- mático Funcional al análisis del cuento de terrror. Se entiende que “el cuento de terror” es un espacio semántico en sí mismo regido por unas estructuras de categorización típi- cas y, por lo tanto, construido sobre los esquemas conceptuales prototípicos de su géne- ro. En este estudio analizamos en profundidad un cuento de terror de la literatura norteamericana, “Polaris” de H. P. Lovecraft, según el método de Martín Mingorance. La aplicación del MLF nos desvelará los marcos o esquemas conceptuales sobre los cua- les está construida esta historia ABSTRACT: The purpose of this article is to apply Martín Mingorance’s Functional- Lexematic Approach into the analysis of horror-fiction. Horror-fiction is a closed semantic world in itself which displays its own structure of categorization. In this study we analyse in depth a horror-fiction short story by H.P. Lovecraft, “Polaris”, according to Martín Mingorance’s proposal. At the end of the article the complete network of the predicate conceptual schemata of the story is discussed. The general purpose of this study is to propose L. Martín Mingorance’s functional-lexematic model as a method of linguistic description for horror-fiction narrative. In this research we will explain why horror-fiction narrative, as a particular semantic world in itself, is an excellent candidate for the alluded type of linguistic analysis, and how the functional-lexematic model is capable of giving a complete account not only of the pragmatic, semantic and syntactic facts of horror-fiction narratives, but also of the cognitive conceptual schemas of knowledge that build up this type of narrative.
