Lovecraft's vision of the perfect horror story encompassed a cosmic terror in which all of creation is at stake. This collection includes the title story by Lovecraft, first published in 1927, as well as some of the genre's most notable achievements, including Algernon Blackwood's "The Willows, " and Henry James's "The Jolly Corner."

Complementing Science-Fiction: The Early Years, which surveys science-fiction published in book form from its beginnings through 1930, the present volume covers all the science-fiction printed in the genre magazines--Amazing, Astounding, and Wonder, along with offshoots and minor magazines--from 1926 through 1936. This is the first time this historically important literary phenomenon, which stands behind the enormous modern development of science-fiction, has been studied thoroughly and accurately. The heart of the book is a series of descriptions of all 1,835 stories published during this period, plus bibliographic information. Supplementing this are many useful features: detailed histories of each of the magazines, an issue by issue roster of contents, a technical analysis of the art work, brief authors' biographies, poetry and letter indexes, a theme and motif index of approximately 30,0000 entries, and general indexes. Science-Fiction: The Gernsback Years is not only indispensable for reference librarians, collectors, readers, and scholars interested in science-fiction, it is also of importance to the study of popular culture during the Great Depression in the United States. Most of its data, which are largely based on rare and almost unobtainable sources, are not available elsewhere.
Authenticity and Adaptation
This collection seeks to explore what authenticity means in the context of adaptation, whether there is such a thing as an authentic adaptation, and what authenticity can offer for adaptation. It does so through four specific sections, each thinking through related questions raised by the theme. By outlining theoretical approaches to authenticity, querying authorship’s relationship to adaptation, the role of medium, and the place or value of the audience, this collection brings together a holistic perspective of authenticity that will intervene in the contemporary debates within adaptation. Authenticity’s increasing importance in the zeitgeist filters through to adaptation, yet it is something that has not been explicitly debated or discussed within the field. As such, this collection both highlights and attempts to fill a gap in scholarship.
