Описание: This volume presents H. P. Lovecraft's letters to three individuals-J. Vernon Shea, Carl Ferdinand Strauch, and Lee McBride White-who were not exclusively interested in weird fiction nor were involved in the realms of amateur journalism or fantasy fandom. Although Shea did come into contact with Lovecraft through Weird Tales, his interests, even as a young man, were far wider-current politics, general literature, film, and socio-cultural trends. As such, Lovecraft's letters to him broach broad topics relating to aesthetics, philosophy, politics, and general culture. In one letter Lovecraft expounds on his fascination with the film Berkeley Square, a time-travel drama that markedly inspired one of his later stories, "The Shadow out of Time." Carl F. Strauch was a librarian and an academic-he wrote a dissertation on Ralph Waldo Emerson and taught for many years at Lehigh University-and Lovecraft was intrigued by Strauch's recital of witch legendry from the Pennsylvania Dutch region of Pennsylvania where he resided. The young Lee White was a student at Howard College in Alabama when he came into contact with Lovecraft, and the ten letters they exchanged over several years cover a wide range of literary topics. In one of his last letters Lovecraft makes extensive revisions on a poem about John Donne that White had written. These letters reveal Lovecraft to have as wide a range of intellectual and aesthetic interests as his diverse and multifaceted correspondents. As in all previous volumes in the Collected Letters series, these letters have been meticulously edited by S. T. Joshi and David E. Schultz, two of the leading authorities on Lovecraft. Also included are many rare and pertinent writings by the various correspondents, which shed light on their relationship to Lovecraft. An exhaustive bibliography and a comprehensive index conclude the volume.

Описание: This book contains Vernon Lee's 1933 study on responses to music, "Music And Its Lovers - An Empirical Study Of Emotional And Imaginative Responses To Music". The study consists of twenty-six questions on topics ranging from perceived meaning to associations and memories, the results and analysis of which make up this volume. This intriguing investigation will appeal to those with keen interest in music and music theory, and it is not to be missed by collectors of antiquarian literature of this ilk. Vernon Lee was the pen-name of the British author Violet Paget (1856 - 1935), who is best remembered for her supernatural novels and her work on aesthetics. Many old texts such as this are increasingly rare and expensive, and it is with this in mind that we are republishing "Music And Its Lovers" now in an affordable, modern edition - complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.
