Produktbeschreibung
In 'The Novel of the Black Seal,' Arthur Machen weaves a haunting narrative that navigates the delicate boundaries between the seen and unseen realms. Rich in atmospheric detail, this novella employs a distinct Gothic style, steeped in the supernatural and infused with a sense of existential dread. Machen's masterful use of language invokes a vivid tableau of mystical and arcane themes, delving into the esoteric knowledge that lurks beneath the surface of reality. This exploration of human psyche and ancient folklore showcases Machen'Äôs ability to evoke profound emotion and strange beauty, reflecting the wider literary currents of the early 20th century that grappled with modernity and spiritual dislocation. Arthur Machen, a Welsh author known for his pioneering work in weird fiction, drew heavily upon his own experiences and interests in mysticism and the occult. His exploration of the unseen and the ineffable was informed by a lifelong fascination with ancient myths, the spiritual undercurrents of rural life, and a deep-seated skepticism of scientific rationalism. These influences coalesce in 'The Novel of the Black Seal,' where he urgently questions the assumptions of an increasingly secular world, appealing to the reader'Äôs imagination and intuition. For those intrigued by the intersections of horror, mythology, and philosophical inquiry, 'The Novel of the Black Seal' is essential reading. Machen's profound insights into the darker sides of human consciousness will resonate with lovers of both literary fiction and supernatural tales. This novella not only enriches our understanding of Machen's literary legacy but also invites readers to confront the mysteries that lie just beyond the veil of everyday existence.

Autorenporträt
Arthur Llewellyn Jones was a Welsh author and mystic who lived from March 3, 1863, to December 15, 1947. Arthur Machen was his pen name. He is best known for writing important horror, fantasy, and magical stories. Stephen King said that his short story "The Great God Pan" (1890 or 1894) was "Maybe the best in the English language." It is considered a classic in the horror genre. Many people read his short story "The Bowmen" as if it were true, which is how the story of the Angels of Mons came to be. Charles Llewelyn Jones was born in Caerleon, Monmouthshire, and became Richard Machen. There is a blue plaque on the house where he was born, which is across the street from the Olde Bull Inn in The Square at Caerleon and next to the Priory Hotel. He often called Monmouthshire by the name of the medieval Welsh kingdom, Gwent. The area's beautiful scenery and Celtic, Roman, and medieval history left a big impact on him, and his love of it is at the heart of many of his works. The Machen family came from Carmarthenshire and had a long history of being priests.
