ISBN: 9780984638611 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 382 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. When An Epicure in the Terrible first appeared in 1991, commemorating the centennial of H. P. Lovecraft's birth, it was hailed as a significant contribution to Lovecraft studies.

Faig, Jr.'s pioneering study of Lovecraft's parents; Jason C. Eckhardt's analysis of Lovecraft's heritage as a New England Yankee; and Donald R. Burleson's treatment of the key theme of "touching the glass," epitomized by "The Outsider."...

Much Misunderstood Man: Selected Letters of Ambrose Bierce
ISBN: 9780814253328 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The binding thread throughout this edited collection of Ambrose Bierce's letters is the argument that Bierce has been too often vilified as a cynical misanthrope. Joshi and Schultz believe that Bierce's human side has been ignored by scholars, and they work here to rectify this oversight. The importance of this collection is underscored by the fact that no collection of Bierce's letters has been published since 1922. This selection represents a sampling of nearly one-half million words of Bierce's correspondence, which Joshi and Schultz are the first to gather and transcribe. The letters...
