Brooks A NOTE ON THE MUSIC The music for Dominions 3 was performed Erik Ask-Upmark and Anna Rynefors. They have two projects, which are Falsobordone (medieval European music) and Dråm (Scandinavian folk music). You will find music from both of these projects in the game – intro music and early age music is Dråm, while middle and late age music is Falsobordone. Some of it is taken from their latest CD. You can learn more about their work, listen to more tracks, and even purchase the CD at www.draam.com. They also did the music for Dominions II, which was all performed as Falsobordone. They have two other CDs available of this excellent music, one of which – Cantigas de Santa Maria – features absolutely splendid vocal work from Rynefors. You can get more information on that by visiting www.falsobordone.com. If you are lucky enough to live on the US west coast, you may be able to catch them on tour when they visit the USA. If you live in Sweden, you can hear them more often. Enjoy! Dominions 3: The Awakening v Shrapnel Games, Inc.

  • Lovecraft's Terrestrial Terrors: Morally Alien Earthlings
    7 ARTIGO http://dx.doi.org/10.12957/abusoes.2017.27816 01 LOVECRAFT’S TERRESTRIAL TERRORS: MORALLY ALIEN EARTHLINGS Greg Conley (EKU) Recebido em 05 mar 2017. Greg Conley is Adjunct Instructor of Humanities, Aprovado em 30 mar 2017 Ph.D. in Literary and Cultural Studies, MFA in Creative Writing, of the Department of Languages, Cultures, and Humanities. Expert Areas: Victorian Literature; Science Fiction/Fantasy/Horror. Email: gregory. conley@eku.edu. Abstract: Lovecraft’s cosmic horror led him to create aliens that did not exist on the same moral spectrum as humanity. That is one of many ways Lovecraft’s work insists humans do not matter in the cosmos. However, most of the work on Lovecraft has focused on the space aliens, and how they are necessarily alien to humans, because they are from other worlds. Lovecraft’s terrestrial aliens, such as the Deep Ones, the Old Ones, and the Shoggoths, are less alien, but just as morally strange. Lovecraft used biological horror to create his terrestrial aliens, and in turn used them to claim that morality was a product of human evolution and history. A life form with a separate evolutionarily history would necessarily have a separate and incomprehensible morality. Lovecraft illustrates that point with narrators who are ultimately sympathetic with the aliens, despite the threat they pose to the narrators and to everything they have ever known. Keywords: Fiction; Cosmic horror; Biologic horror. REVISTA ABUSÕES | n. 04 v. 04 ano 03 8 ARTIGO http://dx.doi.org/10.12957/abusoes.2017.27816 Resumo: O horror cósmico de Lovecraft o conduziu a criar alienígenas que não existem no mesmo escopo moral da humanidade.

  • Kuhn-Conference Paper
    Lina Kuhn ljkuhn@email.unc.edu Department of English and Comparative Literature University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill “Affect and Deep Time in Lovecraft's The Shadow Over Innsmouth, and the Turn Towards Thinking Through the Epoch of the Anthropocene” Mark McGurl begins his article “The Posthuman Comedy” with an analysis of a work by Wai Chee Dimock entitled Through Other Continents: American Literature across Deep Time as a way to think through the concept of deep time and its appearance in fiction. McGurl states that “the perspective of deep time holds the promise, for Dimock, of reinvigorating ‘our very sense of the connectedness among human beings’” which becomes important in, for instance, “dissuading us from the wisdom of war” (McGurl 533). I will return later to the possible benefits of thinking of the ‘connectedness among human beings,’ or as Dipesh Chakrabarty states in his article “The Climate of History: Four Theses,” “the knowledge of humans as a species,” but first I would like to explore the ways in which a work of fiction might gesture towards those benefits on its own terms (Chakrabarty 219). In 1936 H.P. Lovecraft published his novella The Shadow Over Innsmouth, a horror story told by a nameless narrator about his encounters with an alien species in an American town shunned by the rest of the country. The narrator of this tale, through the abjection and horror caused by his loss of agency in relation to the aliens and their status as other, reveals how a sense of deep time changes a human’s reactions to his situation.

Rowdy Geirsson rated it really liked it Nov 25, One of the reasons Norse mythology is such an integral part of modern culture in the English-speaking world could be that little was known about it outside the Nordic region until the 19th century. His mission is to enchant and drown people with his outstanding and fascinating fiddle. Skip to main content. That's especially true in Norway, which has a rich Norse mythology along with plenty of folk tales. Josefin L Sara Westman. Details if other :. The race of Scandinavian trolls was described as being stupid and slow, much like a bear in temperament; perhaps this is why trolls were rumored to keep them as pets. The King's stepmother objected and stole their babies, pinning the blame on the girl and eventually persuading the King to kill her. Sort order. Folk Tales. Maybe it would be better to just read the occasional story from this book. Interesting for an overview of folktales and legends for those who do not speak Scandinavian languages.

Lovecraft, rq4yBjUVk both intentional and accidental, cannot be underestimated, and one of his most 32toKHZwl influential and famous stories is 'The Shadow Over Innsmouth' so its only W0x7cSBnh natural that anthologies would be built around this story and its mythos, and NCPiV3n6j when it comes right down to it, Robert M.

"The NjFq6WbTI Innsmouth Cycle" collects both recent and rare Lovecraftian fiction from both TbDoJbtMW professional and amateur venues, with the idea of tracing the literary evolution iOeCmr8hN of the Innsmouth mythology.********And to set the stage for this anthology ZgCIIKQ4J Robert M.

  • Lovecraftian Monsters of Nautical Horror in William Eubank's
    Lovecraftian Monsters of Nautical Horror in William Eubank’s Underwater Antonio Alcalá González Tecnológico de Monterrey, Mexico City The drastic changes brought to our lives due to the presence of a mere virus, COVID19, have made us reflect on the fragility of our claimed position as rulers of the planet’s surface. Such role is so relative that, when we focus on the oceanic depths, human’s apparent supremacy on the rest of the planet has not even been claimed. Though some technological advances have allowed us to reach corners at the bottom of the ocean in recent decades, we have found them to be dark areas under tons of water where it becomes rather complicated to leave permanent marks of our presence; thus abyssal depths remain some of the ultimate frontiers for humanity to dominate. On this maritime obscure stage, William Eubank’s film, Underwater (2020) relies on Lovecraftian aquatic monsters to address concerns about the exploitation of nature in the Anthropocene. Eubank’s monsters are inspired on Cthulhu and the Deep Ones; both of them are submarine entities that emerge from oceanic depths to bring impressions of absolute horror in Lovecraft’s fiction. The intention of this paper is to approach Eubank’s film under a Nautical Horror lens and scrutinize the director’s appropriation of said grotesque monsters to share his view of humanity as a species with a very limited role not only in maritime depths but in the whole planet as well. In horror narratives, characters who confront monsters experience two stages of horror. First is the distressing experience that comes when facing the irruption of the monstrous entity.

    EURAMERICA Vol. 46, No. 2 (June 2016), 165-210 © Institute of European and American Studies, Academia Sinica http://euramerica.org In Praise of the Innsmouth Look —Nautical Terror and the Specter of Atlantic History in H. P. Lovecraft’s Fiction Evan Lampe Department of History, National Chi Nan University No. 1, University Rd., Puli Township, Nantou 54561, Taiwan E-mail: evanlampe@gmail.com Abstract The “Innsmouth Look” combines several important themes explored by H. P. Lovecraft in his fiction: racial degeneration, fear of unknown creatures from the sea, and backwater oddity. It also reveals Lovecraft’s relationship to several aspects of Atlantic history. This article will define the “Innsmouth Look” in terms of both the specific physiological changes described in “The Shadow Over Innsmouth” and Lovecraft’s broader exploration of the terror of the sea. Maritime workers appear in his stories as villains largely due to their participation in the heterodox cults associated with the ancient gods of the so-called “Cthulhu Mythos.” These workers, however, are also invoking a long tradition of cultural resistance in Atlantic history. The “Innsmouth Look” is also seen in Lovecraft’s description of working Received February 12, 2015; accepted August 24, 2015; last revised September 8, 2015 Proofreaders: Hsueh-mei Chen, Pei-Yun Lee, Fang-Yi Chen 166 EURAMERICA people and communities excluded from economic progress. The violence of exclusion, as well as the more direct violence of slavery and the anatomical sciences, are in many ways the root causes of working class resentment against the Atlantic elite, with which Lovecraft affiliated himself. Most obviously, Lovecraft was feeding into early twentieth century discourses on race and cultural mixing.
