	Scriptorium - H.P. Lovecraft
		Lovecraft never recovered from the loss of his birthplace: in the short run it drove him almost to suicide, as he took long bicycle rides and gazed wistfully at the watery depths of the Barrington River; in the long run it led to a sense of loss and displacement that his early readings only augmented.
		Lovecraft later believed that Hellenism and astronomy were the two central influences of his early years, the latter especially because it led directly to his "cosmic" philosophy wherein mankind and the world are but a flyspeck amidst the vortices of infinite space.
		Lovecraft, stunned by the blow, felt himself again on the brink of suicide, but the sentiment did not last long: a month after his mother's death he attended an amateur journalism convention in Boston, where he met the woman who was to become his wife.

		Lovecraft was apparently informed that his father was paralyzed and comatose during this period, but the surviving evidence suggests that this was not the case; it is nearly certain that Lovecraft's father died of paresis, a form of syphilis.

		Lovecraft was born on 20 August 1890 at 9:00 a.m.
		Lovecraft's mother was committed to the Butler Hospital for the Insane, where her husband had died, after suffering from hysteria and depression for a long period of time.
		Lovecraft pastiches are common, and his "universe" is so distinctive that he is an eponym, describing things which are so abstract to human understanding, that merely seeing them is often enough to cause terror and insanity.

		Lovecraft's new one runs for more than 800 pages and includes 22 novellas and short stories with titles such as "The Horror at Red Hook," "At the Mountains of Madness" and "The Thing on the Doorstep." There are now 25,000 copies in print, which is an above-average number for the nonprofit publisher.
		Lovecraft knew what to place onstage as well as what to leave inside the haunted imaginations of his readers.
		Lovecraft almost never wrote a happy ending and he certainly isn't known for his sense of humor, but perhaps by now even he would appreciate that it's nice to have the last laugh.

		Lovecraft was not content with writing "mere" stories of invasion by alien forces, however: his extraterrestrials are subject to the same forces as ourselves, and we often have much in common with them.
		Lovecraft applied the Darwinian concept of the survival of the fittest to Spenglerian notions of the rise and fall of civilization, thus providing a double blow to the idea of evolution as progress: even the most advanced and intelligent cultures are doomed, according to this notion of history.

		Although it is nearby, Lovecraft's body does not actually lie beneath his donated headstone, a fact that was evidently unknown to the person or persons who, on the night of October 13, 1997, apparently tried to dig him up.
		Some measure of Lovecraft's continuing popularity may be gauged by the fact that enthusiasts of his work gather at his grave each year around the anniversary of his death.

		As a review of Lovecraft, it entirely misses his central horrific theme - the ultimate cosmic irrelevance of man. Lovecraft is not "ooh, scary scary monster" horror, at least not at the deeper level where this reviewer failed to hit the mark.
		Lovecraft represents the final abandonment of the Enlightenment and Transcendentalist themes of benevolent Nature; the recognition that, in the twentieth century, the world could hold unmitigated horrors (fairly apt for the time when he was writing).
		Joshi's biography of Lovecraft (which is apparently a bit rare at this point, need to take better care of my copy) covers a lot of this in fascinating detail.

		The very essence of Lovecraft's mythos was that our universe was only a twisted delusion of a great, vast, inescapable darkness, of which mankind was nothing but the merest speck of insignificant matter.
		In Lovecrafts poem "Nyarlathotep", this dark messenger was a man; a man who brought final destruction to the human race.
		Like the universe of H.P. Lovecraft, the Babylon 5 universe has its own dark secrets -- secrets which man was not be meant to know, and of things which should not be.

	Library of America: H. P. Lovecraft: Tales
		"The oldest and strongest emotion of mankind is fear." So said Howard Phillips Lovecraft (1890-1937), the 20th-century successor to Poe as America's foremost writer of fantastic fiction.
		In this volume, the distinguished best-selling novelist Peter Straub brings together the very best of Lovecraft's fiction in a treasury guaranteed to bring fright and delight both to longtime fans and to readers new to his work.
		Including such classics as "The Shadow Over Innsmouth" and "The Colour Out of Space," these stories, whether set in old New England towns oppressed by memories of unholy pasts or in Antarctic wastes that disclose appalling extraterrestrial secrets, never fail to fascinate.
