In sheer daemonic strangeness and fertility of conception, Smith is perhaps unexcelled by any other writer.”—H. P. LovecraftClark Ashton Smith, considered one of the greatest contributors to seminal pulp magazines such as Weird Tales, helped define and shape “weird fiction” in the early twentieth century, alongside contemporaries H.P. Lovecraft and Robert E. Howard, drawing upon his background in poetry to convey an unparalleled richness of imagination and expression in his stories of the bizarre and fantastical.The Collected Fantasies series presents all of Smith’s fiction chronologically. Authorized by the author’s estate and endorsed by Arkham House, the stories in this series are accompanied by detailed background notes from editors Scott Connors and Ron Hilger, who in preparation for this collection meticulously compared original manuscripts, various typescripts, published editions, and Smith’s own notes and letters. Their efforts have resulted in the most definitive and complete collection of the author’s work to date.The End of the Story is the first of five volumes collecting all of Clark Ashton Smith’s tales of fantasy, horror, and science fiction. It includes all of his stories from “The Abominations of Yondo” (1925) to “A Voyage to Sfanomoë” (1930) and an introduction by Ramsey Campbell.Skyhorse Publishing, under our Night Shade and Talos imprints, is proud to publish a broad range of titles for readers interested in science fiction (space opera, time travel, hard SF, alien invasion, near-future dystopia), fantasy (grimdark, sword and sorcery, contemporary urban fantasy, steampunk, alternative history), and horror (zombies, vampires, and the occult and supernatural), and much more. While not every title we publish becomes a New York Times bestseller, a national bestseller, or a Hugo or Nebula award-winner, we are committed to publishing quality books from a diverse group of authors. Clark Ashton Smith is one of the great writers of horror and dark fantasy, a contemporary, dear friend and literary equal of HP Lovecraft. The Collected Fantasies ia a multi-volume collection of all his short stories. It was previously available as lmited edition hardcovers which sold out quickly and are now only available for exhorbitant prices. The kindle version allows you to have access to those stories if you missed out then. CASs weaves a marvelous tapestry of language, and his stories even with all their dark content often have a sliver of wicked humor that makes them stand out. Highly recommended to all fans of literary horror in the vein of Lovecraft.

TEACHING SPECULATIVE FICTION IN COLLEGE: A PEDAGOGY FOR MAKING ENGLISH STUDIES RELEVANT by JAMES HAMMOND SHIMKUS Under the Direction of Dr. Elizabeth Burmester ABSTRACT Speculative fiction (science fiction, fantasy, and horror) has steadily gained popularity both in culture and as a subject for study in college. While many helpful resources on teaching a particular genre or teaching particular texts within a genre exist, college teachers who have not previously taught science fiction, fantasy, or horror will benefit from a broader pedagogical overview of speculative fiction, and that is what this resource provides. Teachers who have previously taught speculative fiction may also benefit from the selection of alternative texts presented here. This resource includes an argument for the consideration of more speculative fiction in college English classes, whether in composition, literature, or creative writing, as well as overviews of the main theoretical discussions and definitions of each genre.

  • That of Cultural Representations of the Magic Circle in Its Occult Usage
    11. Six Lecti.o on Occult Philosophy 3. tlodgson's Corttflckt ttte Ghost-FiiideT ~ ``rThe BOTdetlaLnds" (Owter Li77iits) Up to this point we've been considering variations on a theme: that of cultural representations of the magic circle in its occult usage. In these stories the rmagic circle rmaintalns a basic function, which is to govern the boundary between the natural and the supematural, be it in terms of acting as a protective barrier, or in terms of evoking the supernatural from the safety inside the circle. We can now take another step, which is to consider instances in which the anomalies that occur are not inside or outside the magic circle, but are anomalies o/the magic circle itself . This need not mean that the magic circle malfunc- tions, or has been improperly drawn. In some cases it may mean that the magic circle - as the boundary and mediation of the hidden world - itself reveals some new property or propensity. A case in point is in the ``occult detective" subgenre, a style of fiction popular in the 19th century. In these types of stories, a hero-protagonist combines knowledge of modern science with that of ancient magic to solve a series of crimes and mysteries that may or may not have supernatural causes. Algernon B\aLckwood's John Silence - Physician Extraordinary iind SiheridaLr\ Le Fanu's J# ¢ GJ¢ss D¢rkzy are examples in fiction, while Charles Fort's Tfee Book o/ ffec D¢77i77ed is an example in non-fiction. These types of stories are not only the precursors to modern-day TV shows such as X-/1.Zes or f7i.7tge, but they also bring together science and sorcery into a new relationship.

H. P. Lovecraft Acknowledgments: The elaboration of this thesis would not have been possible without the support and collaboration of my supervisor, Dra. Anelise Reich Courseil and the patience of my family and friends, who stood by me in the process of writing and revising the text. I am grateful to CAPES for the scholarship received. ABSTRACT WEIRD FICTION AND THE UNHOLY GLEE OF H. P. LOVECRAFT KÉZIA L’ENGLE DE FIGUEIREDO HEYE UNIVERSIDADE FEDERAL DE SANTA CATARINA 2003 Supervisor: Dra. Anelise Reich Corseuil The objective of this thesis is to verify if the concept of weird fiction can be classified not only as a sub-genre of the horror literary genre, but if it constitutes a genre of its own. Along this study, I briefly present the theoretical background on genre theory, the horror genre, weird fiction, and a review of criticism on Lovecraft’s works. I also expose Lovecraft’s letters and ideas, expecting to show the working behind his aesthetic theory on weird fiction. The theoretical framework used in this thesis reflects some of the most relevant theories on genre study.

  • Twodee's Shadowrun Storytime, Including but Not Limited to the Full Chapter 15 and Chapters 21 and 21.5
    1 TwoDee’s Shadowrun Storytime Written by TwoDee Edited and Compiled by Jarboot!!j4xjG8Gxyo4 Further Edited and Compiled by Impatient Asshole Anon What follows is arguably the best series of storytime threads ever created. If you're any sort of fan of Shadowrun—whether you're a new GM, newbie player, or even a veteran—this prose will really help flesh out what sort of fun you can have with the system and setting. It's nearly 400 pages and about 130,000 words, so download this to read on your phone/laptop/ebook/commlink, because this will take a while. I'm Jarboot, a fellow fa/tg/uy and Shadowrun fan. Someone suggested that someone make a compilation of this story for easier reading, so I figured I could do it. Editing is minimal, but I fixed a lot of spelling and general syntax error, most of which were mentioned by TwoDee in a post following the original. There are some little Jackpoint-esque comments from other people from the threads included in the document, which are differentiated by a green color and indented text. I may have included a picture or two in there, too. Also, 2D likes to do some foreshadowing at some points, so keep track of the greentexted dates if you feel confused. All these threads (except number 3, which you can search for using some of the other tags) can be found by searching for the “shadowrun storytime” tag on the /tg/ archive. Jarboot is an extremely helpful fa/tg/uy, but this particular Anon is an impatient asshole who wanted a fully updated version of TwoDee's Shadowrun Storytime, including but not limited to the full Chapter 15 and Chapters 21 and 21.5.
