Produktinformationen zu „The Great God Pan (ePub)“

In Arthur Machen's 'The Great God Pan', readers are taken on a haunting journey into the realm of the supernatural and the unknown. Machen's lyrical prose and vivid descriptions create an atmosphere of mystery and suspense throughout the narrative. This book can be seen as a pioneering work in the genre of cosmic horror, influencing later writers such as H.P. Lovecraft. The themes of ancient gods, forbidden knowledge, and the blurred line between reality and the supernatural make 'The Great God Pan' a compelling and unsettling read. Arthur Machen, a Welsh author known for his contributions to the genre of horror fiction, drew inspiration from folklore and his own experiences to craft this chilling tale. Machen's background in journalism and his interest in mysticism and the occult shine through in his writing, adding layers of depth and complexity to the narrative. I highly recommend 'The Great God Pan' to readers who enjoy atmospheric and thought-provoking horror fiction. Machen's unique blend of mysticism and terror will keep you captivated until the very last page.

Autoren-Porträt von Arthur Machen

Arthur Machen (1863-1947) was a Welsh author and mystic, widely known for his influential supernatural, fantasy, and horror fiction. His seminal work, 'The Great God Pan' (1894), has garnered a reputation as a classic of weird fiction, profoundly impacting the literary world and earning him a place among the precursors of modern horror. The novel, which explores the arcane and the occult, follows the chilling consequences of a scientific experiment intended to allow a woman to see the god Pan, which leads to a series of unexplainable occurrences. Machen's literary style is marked by elaborate descriptions and a rich, atmospheric prose that imbues his stories with a sense of the uncanny, drawing on his fascination with the mystical and the grotesque. A master of creating a sense of dread and foreboding, Machen's works, including 'The Great God Pan,' continue to resonate with readers and have influenced a generation of writers, including H.P. Lovecraft. Machen's contributions to the horror genre are significant, as he wove his interest in paganism, the supernatural, and the ancient into his narratives, setting the stage for the modern exploration of these themes in literature.
