Synopsis "The Terror"

Several collections have translated and reproduced Machen's stories. The early 1970s paperback reissue of The Three Impostors in the Ballantine Adult Fantasy series introduced him to a new generation. The tiny press recently published Machen's work. The famous Library of Wales series reissued two volumes of Machen's work in 2010 to commemorate his 150th birthday.Wesley D. Sweetser and S. T. Joshi see Machen's works as a major part of the late Victorian gothic novel revival and the 1890s decadent movement, comparing them to Robert Louis Stevenson's Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, Bram Stoker's Dracula, and Oscar Wilde's The Picture of Dorian Gray. Wilde, Yeats, and Doyle were Machen's fans. He is also included in the best Anglo-Welsh literature studies. Paul-Jean Toulet visited Machen in London and translated "The Great God Pan" into French. Charles Williams, a Machen enthusiast, received inspiration for his novels.

Arthur Machen es el seudónimo de Arthur Llewelyn Jones (1863-1947) un escritor y periodista galés que tiene el incuestionable honor de ser el padre de la novela decadente de terror. Después de una juventud un tanto errática, en la que compagina la escritura con trabajos eventuales, en 1890 Machen se dedica plenamente a la escritura gracias a una herencia familiar. De esos años de trabajo pleno surgirán sus mejores obras, las que le convertirán en un escritor tremendamente popular.Influenciado por las nuevas tendencias espirituales de su época, como el paganismo, el ocultismo o el espiritismo, Machen participa en distintos grupos hasta ingresar en la Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn, una secta cristiana que preconizaba la recuperación de los antiguos rituales de la iglesia.Prolífico, Machen publicó 13 novelas que gozaron de una extraordinaria acogida popular, y resultó tremendamente influyente para todos aquellos autores que, después de él, decidieron explorar los aspectos más oscuros de la ficción.
