He's come to open trade for “barbaric” England and squeeze out the Portuguese, who try to kill him at every turn. But once on land, he’s captive: the beauty and romance of the exquisite Moghul Empire seduce him from his material goals to a new quest – of supreme sensuality in music, visions, and sacred lovemaking. India, ruled by the son of great Akbar, is about to pass to one of his sons. Hawksworth must choose sides, but will he choose right? The future of England, and of India, depend on it.

After the ‘discovery’ of African pygmies in the 1860s, little people became a powerful way of imaginatively connecting to an inconceivably distant past, and the place of humans within it. Little people in fin de siècle narratives have been commonly interpreted as atavistic, stunted warnings of biological reversion. I suggest that there are other readings available: by deploying two nineteenth-century anthropological theories – E. B. Tylor’s doctrine of ‘survivals’, and euhemerism, a model proposing that the mythology surrounding fairies was based on the existence of real ‘little people’ – they can also be read as positive symbols of the tenacity of the human spirit, and as offering access to a sacred, spiritual, or magic, world.

    Index All names are arranged last name, first name, or last name, nickname/title, so Old Sleuth is indexed as “Sleuth, Old.” All pseudonyms and story and novel titles are indexed according to their most famous and well-known arrangement, so Les Miserables is put in the L section—it would be an act of mulish perversity and unfriendliness to the reader to put Les Miserables in the Ms—but The Adrets Inn is put in the A section.

  • Black Bartlemy's Treasure
    1 BLACK BARTLEMY'S TREASURE BY JEFFREY FARNOL TO MY NEPHEWS JAMES JEFFREY FARNOL AND RONALD EWART OAKESHOTT BLACK BARTLEMY'S TREASURE PROLOGUE The Frenchman beside me had been dead since dawn. His scarred and shackled body swayed limply back and forth with every sweep of the great oar as we, his less fortunate bench-fellows, tugged and strained to keep time to the stroke. 2 Two men had I seen die beside me, yet Death ever passed me by, nay, it seemed rather that despite the pain of stripes, despite the travail and hardship, my strength waxed the mightier; upon arm and thigh, burnt nigh black by fierce suns, the muscles showed hard and knotted; within my body, scarred by the lash, the life leapt and glowed yet was the soul of me sick unto death. But it seemed I could not die--finding thereby blessed rest and a surcease from this agony of life as had this Frenchman, who of all the naked wretches about me, was the only one with whom I had any sort of fellowship. He had died (as I say) with the dawn, so quietly that at first I thought he but fainted and pitied him, but, when I knew, pity changed to bitterness. Therefore, as I strove at the heavy oar I prayed 'twixt gnashing teeth a prayer I had often prayed, and the matter of my praying was thus: "O God of Justice, for the agony I needs must now endure, for the bloody stripes and bitter anguish give to me vengeance-- vengeance, O God, on mine enemy!" So prayed I, hoarse-panting and with the sweat trickling down whiles I stared at the naked back of him that rowed before me--a great, fat fellow he had been once, but now the skin hung in numberless creases whereon were many weals, some raw and bloody, that crossed and re-crossed each other after the manner of lace- work.

  • The Three Impostors by Arthur Machen
    The Three Impostors By Arthur Machen A special note: Many thanks go to Celephicus for allowing HorrorMasters to post this collection of stories. PROLOGUE ‘And Mr. Joseph Walters is going to stay the night?’ said the smooth, clean-shaven man to his companion, an individual not of the most charming appearance, who had chosen to make his ginger-coloured moustache merge into a pair of short chin-whiskers. The two stood at the hall door, grinning evilly at each other; and presently a girl ran quickly down the stairs and joined them. She was quite young, with a quaint and piquant rather than a beautiful face, and her eyes were of a shining hazel. She held a neat paper parcel in one hand, and laughed with her friends. ‘Leave the door open,’ said the smooth man to the other, as they were going out. ‘Yes, by —,’ he went on with an ugly oath, ‘we’ll leave the front door on the jar. He may like to see company, you know.’ The other man looked doubtfully about him. ‘Is it quite prudent, do you think, Davies?’ he said, pausing with his hand on the mouldering knocker. ‘I don’t think Lipsius would like it. What do you say, Helen?’ ‘I agree with Davies. Davies is an artist, and you are commonplace, Richmond, and a bit of a coward. Let the door stand open, of course. But what a pity Lipsius had to go away! He would have enjoyed himself.’ ‘Yes,’ replied the smooth Mr. Davies, ‘that summons to the west was very hard on the doctor.’ The three passed out, leaving the hall door, cracked and riven with frost and wet, half open, and they stood silent for a moment under the ruinous shelter of the porch.

  • Title of Dissertation
    PANIC ON THE BRITISH BORDERLANDS: THE GREAT GOD PAN, VICTORIAN SEXUALITY, AND SACRED SPACE IN THE WORKS OF ARTHUR MACHEN A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy By Jeffrey Michael Renye January, 2013 Examining Committee Members: Daniel T. O’Hara, Advisory Chair, Department of English Sheldon Brivic, Department of English Talissa Ford, Department of English Robert L. Caserio, External Member, The Pennsylvania State University, University Park © Copyright 2013 by Jeffrey Michael Renye All Rights Reserved ii ABSTRACT From the late Victorian period to the early twentieth century, Arthur Machen’s life and his writing provide what Deleuze and Guattari argue to be the value of the minor author: Contemporary historical streams combine in Machen’s fiction and non-fiction. The concerns and anxieties in the writing reflect significant developments in their times, and exist amid the questions incited by positivist science, sexological studies, and the dissemination and popularity of Darwin’s theories and the interpretations of Social Darwinism: What is the integrity of the human body, and what are the relevance and varieties of spiritual belief. The personal and the social issues of materiality and immateriality are present in the choice of Machen’s themes and the manner in which he expresses them. More specifically, Machen’s use of place and his interest in numinosity, which includes the negative numinous, are the twining forces where the local and the common, and the Ideal and the esoteric, meet. His interest in Western esotericism is important because of the Victorian occult revival and the ritual magic groups’ role in the development of individual psychic explorations.
