Carl H. Sederholm – ‘The Age of Lovecraft’ Book

$29.94

‘The Age of Lovecraft’ is the first sustained analysis of H.P. Lovecraft in relation to twenty-first-century critical theory and culture, delving into troubling aspects of his thought and writings.

With contributions from scholars including Gothic expert David Punter, historian W. Scott Poole, musicologist Isabella van Elferen, and philosopher of the posthuman Patricia MacCormack, this wide-ranging volume brings together thinkers from an array of disciplines to consider Lovecraft’s contemporary cultural presence and its implications.

Bookended by a preface from horror fiction luminary Ramsey Campbell and an extended interview with the central author of the ‘New Weird,’ China Miéville, the collection addresses the question of “why Lovecraft, why now?” through a variety of approaches and angles.

A must for scholars, students, and theoretically inclined readers interested in Lovecraft, popular culture, and intellectual trends, ‘The Age of Lovecraft’ offers the most thorough examination of Lovecraft’s place in contemporary philosophy and critical theory to date as it seeks to shed light on the larger phenomenon of the dominance of weird fiction in the twenty-first century.
