Committee Member Professor ii © Copyright by Aaron Trevor Goode All rights reserved 2019 iii ABSTRACT AMERICAN GOTHIC: A CREATIVE EXPLORATION Name: Goode, Aaron Trevor University of Dayton Advisor: Bryan Bardine This work endeavors to explore the various movements of American Gothic by presenting an original narrative that represents key facets of each movement. Various authors and subgenres are mentioned throughout via text boxes containing annotative notes. These annotations are intended to enhance reader understanding of the American Gothic genre by familiarizing them with the stylistic conventions common to key authors and famous works of the genre. The story itself is broken up into seven sections, each distinct with regard to style and content while maintaining a cohesive narrative with a unified plot. As the readers progress through the plot, they will also progress chronologically through the history of American Gothic. from the earliest work of Charles Brockden Brown up to the Postmodern style of Mark Danielewski. iv Dedicated to My Wife v ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would first like to thank my advisor, Dr. Bardine, for his openness to this unconventional project, as well as for the opportunity to discuss metal and attend shows with his students.

  • “I Am an Other and I Always Was…”
    Hugvísindasvið “I am an other and I always was…” On the Weird and Eerie in Contemporary and Digital Cultures Ritgerð til MA-prófs í menningafræði Bob Cluness May 2019 Háskóli Íslands Hugvísindad Menningarfræði “I am an other and I always was…” On the Weird and Eerie in Contemporary and Digital Cultures Ritgerð til MA-prófs í menningafræði Bob Cluness Kt.: 150676-2829 Tutor: Björn Þór Vilhjálmsson May 2019 Abstract Society today is undergoing a series of processes and changes that can be only be described as weird. From the apocalyptic resonance of climate change and the drive to implement increasing powerful technologies into everyday life, to the hyperreality of a political and media landscape beset by chaos, there is the uneasy feeling that society, culture, and even consensual reality is beginning to experience signs of disintegration. What was considered the insanity of the margins is now experienced in the mainstream, and there is a growing feeling of wrongness, that the previous presumptions of the self, other, reality and knowledge are becoming untenable. This thesis undertakes a detailed examination of the weird and eerie as both an aesthetic register and as a critical tool in analysing the relationship between individuals and an impersonal modern society, where agency and intention is not solely the preserve of the human and there is a feeling not so much of being to act, and being acted upon. Using the definitions and characteristics of the weird and eerie provided by Mark Fisher’s critical text, The Weird and the Eerie, I set the weird and eerie in a historical context specifically regarding both the gothic, weird fiction and with the uncanny, I then analyse the presence of the weird and the eerie present in two cultural phenomena, the online phenomenon of the Slender Man, and J.G.

    Reality Warper "Martha, does our Hero Insurance cover Reality Warping?" "Today's seminar is about a subject near and dear to my heart: Reality Benders. Type Greens. Mary Sues. Bixbies, Shapers,Wizards, Gods, Devils, Outside Observers, call them what you will, these are the guys that change reality based on perception and willpower." — Transcript of Dr. Clef's Seminar, "Reality Benders and You: How To Survive When The Universe Doesn't ", SCP Foundation Ever heard of the Superpower Lottery? Well, kid, you just won the grand prize. You can create, change, or destroy things or even alter reality just by thinking about it. The key issue here is how far they can take this. A character with a mild form of this power (which isn't seen very often) may be able to will a new subatomic particle into existence. A ridiculously overpowered character may be able to hiccup and accidentally tear the very fabric of the space-time continuum asunder. High-end Reality Warpers tend to also be Reality Makers. For the really high end ones, see The Omnipotent. Needless to say, running into characters with such powers can be incredibly chancy. Arguing with the more powerful ones may well be futile, especially since they can literally, in the words of Paul from The Dungeonmaster (or Adam Savage), reject your reality and substitute their own. Since absolute power corrupts absolutely, a character with this high a level of power is quite likely to go bad. They might even deem themselves to be gods. Especially for the higher-end ones, it's hard to dispute this assessment.

Markmið ritgerðarinnar er að sýna fram á breytingar í merkingarvirkni hins kosmíska hryllings samhliða tilkomu nýrra miðla. Sýnt verður fram á þessa þróun með greiningu á leiknum Bloodborne (FromSoftware), þar sem áhrif H.P. Lovecrafts, Cthulhu sagnaheimsins og annarra verka verða notuð til samanburðar.

Lovecraft sótti innblástur til forvera síns, bandaríska nítjándu aldar höfundarins Edgar Allan Poe, sem hann taldi mikilvægasta hryllingsrithöfund síns tíma.

By far the most popular writer associated with the latter publication is H.P. Lovecraft, an American practitioner of cosmic weird horror whose astounding fictions have become emblematic of the genre in the mainstream imagination. This dissertation locates Lovecraft’s early modernist predecessors in British authors Vernon Lee (Violet Paget), Arthur Machen, Algernon Blackwood, and William Hope Hodgson. By tracking the evolution of the genre through these authors’ works, this study addresses the following question: “How does weird horror fiction distinguish itself from prior supernatural traditions, in particular the Gothic romance and the Victorian ghost story?” The chapters answer that inquiry by demonstrating that British weird horror fiction destabilizes scientific and philosophical accounts of physical matter, as well as the materialistic theories of ii biological life and the cosmos that issue from such accounts.
