Autorenporträt
H. P. Lovecraft (1890-1937) was an American writer whose innovative blend of horror, science fiction, and fantasy established him as a cornerstone of modern speculative fiction. Born in Providence, Rhode Island, Lovecraft faced early personal tragedies that shaped his fascination with the macabre and the unknown. His works often explored themes of cosmic insignificance and ancient, godlike entities, epitomized by the Cthulhu Mythos-a fictional universe that has profoundly influenced the horror genre.Although Lovecraft struggled financially and received little recognition during his lifetime, his stories, including The Call of Cthulhu and At the Mountains of Madness, have since become classics. His vivid imagination, meticulous world-building, and extensive correspondence inspired a network of authors who expanded on his mythos.Despite his enduring literary impact, Lovecraft's legacy is complicated by his xenophobic and racist views, which have drawn critical scrutiny. Today, his works remain widely read and celebrated for their imaginative depth, while also prompting reflection on the complexities of the author's life and beliefs.
