Howard Phillips Lovecraft (August 20, 1890, Providence, Rhode Island, USA March 15, 1937, there) was an American writer, poet and journalist who wrote in the genres of horror, mystery and fantasy, combining them in an original style.
During Lovecraft's lifetime, his works were not very popular, but after his death they had a noticeable impact on the formation of modern popular culture.
His work is so unique that the works of Lovecraft stand out in a separate subgenre — the so called Lovecraft horrors.

Biography[edit / edit wiki text]
Lovecraft was born in Providence (Rhode Island, USA).
He was the only child of Wilfrid Scott Lovecraft, a jewelry salesman, and Sarah Susan Phillips Lovecraft.
It is known that his ancestors lived in America since the days of the Massachusetts Bay Colony (1630).
When Howard was two years old, Wilfrid was placed in a psychiatric hospital, where he remained for five years until his release on June 19, 1898. [4]
Lovecraft at the age of 9-10 years.
Lovecraft was raised by his mother, two aunts and a grandfather (Whipple Van Buren Phillips), who sheltered the family of the future writer.
Howard was a child prodigy he read poems by heart at the age of two, and from six he was already writing his own [4].
Thanks to his grandfather, who had the largest library in the city[4], he got acquainted with classical literature.
In addition to the classics, he became interested in Gothic prose and Arabic fairy tales of the Thousand and One Nights.
At the age of 6-8, Lovecraft wrote several short stories, most of which have not been preserved to this day.
At the age of 14, Lovecraft wrote his first serious work — "The Beast in the Cave".
Since childhood, Lovecraft had had nightmares, but he could not control them or wake up.
Creatures with webbed wings, which he called "night monsters", lifted him into the air and carried him to the "vile Lang plateau".
The writer used these experiences in his work.
So, the story "Dagon" is one of these dreams.
After waking up, Lovecraft's state was completely insane, but he found the strength to write down the dream.
Re reading it a few days later, he did not change anything.
As a child, Lovecraft was often ill and went to school only at the age of eight, but a year later he was taken away from there.
He read a lot, studied chemistry between the cases, wrote several works (reproduced them on the hectograph in a small edition) since 1899 ("Scientific Newspaper").
Four years later, he returned to school.
Whipple Van Buren Phillips died in 1904, after which the family became very poor and was forced to move to a smaller house on the same street.
Howard was saddened by the departure, and he even considered suicide.
Because of a nervous breakdown that happened to him in 1908, he never finished school, which he was very ashamed of.
Lovecraft wrote fiction as a child ("The Beast in the Cave "(1905)," The Alchemist " (1908)), but later preferred poetry and essays to it.
He returned to this "frivolous" genre only in 1917 with the stories "Dagon", then "The Tomb".
"Dagon" became his first published creation, appearing in 1923 in the magazine "Mysterious Stories" (Weird Tales).
At the same time, Lovecraft began his correspondence, which eventually became one of the most voluminous in the XX century.
Among his correspondents were Forrest Ackerman, Robert Bloch and Robert Howard.
Sarah, Howard's mother, after a long period of hysteria and depression, went to the same hospital where her husband died, and died there on May 21, 1921.
She wrote to her son until her last days.
In 1919-1923, Lovecraft actively wrote, having created more than 40 short stories over the years, including in co authorship.
Soon, at a meeting of amateur journalists, Howard Lovecraft met Sonya Green, from a family of Jewish immigrants from the Russian Empire, and who was seven years older than Lovecraft.
They married in 1924 and moved to Brooklyn, New York.
After the quiet Providence, Lovecraft did not like New York life.
In many ways, his story "He"was autobiographical.
A few years later, the couple separated, although they did not formalize a divorce.
Lovecraft returned to his hometown.
Because of the failed marriage, some biographers suggested that he was homosexual, but Green, on the contrary, called him "a wonderful lover" [5].
A memorial plaque to Lovecraft in Providence.
Returning to Providence, Lovecraft lived in a" large Victorian wooden house "at 10 Barnes Street until 1933 (this address is the address of the house of Dr. Willet in the story"The Case of Charles Dexter Ward").
This period is probably the most interesting and productive in the writer's life.
He travels a lot in New England, visits Quebec, Philadelphia, Charleston, and still maintains an active correspondence.
The most important works of Lovecraft (sometimes called "senior texts"), starting with" The Call of Cthulhu " (1926), were written at this time.
6].
Despite his success as a writer, Lovecraft was increasingly in need.
He moved again, this time to a small house.
The suicide of Robert Howard made a strong impression on him.
In 1936, the writer was diagnosed with intestinal cancer, which caused exhaustion.
Howard Phillips Lovecraft died on March 15, 1937 in Providence.
Literary creativity[edit / edit wiki text]
Predecessors[edit / edit wiki text]
Edgar Allan Poe, whose work influenced Lovecraft.
Among the writers whose work influenced Lovecraft, as can be seen from his reviews in the essay "Supernatural Horror in Literature" and from the list provided by his biographer Sunand Joshi[7], first of all it is necessary to include: Edgar Allan Poe (the story "The Fall of the House of Escher"), Edward Dunsany, Arthur Machen (short stories from the novel "The Three Deceivers": "The Story of the White Powder", "The Story of the Black Seal" and the story "White People"), Algernon Blackwood (the story "Willows"), Ambrose Bierce ("The Death of Halpin Fraser"), Lafcadio Hearn, Robert Chambers (the short story "The Yellow Sign" from the novel "The King in Yellow"), Montague Rhodes James (the story "Count Magnus", also "Charming Runes").
Followers[edit / edit wiki text]
August Derleth
Perhaps the most important of Lovecraft's followers, both from the point of view of chronology and from the point of view of continuity, is August Derleth.
Despite the fact that many authors subsequently turned to the pantheon of cosmic gods created by Lovecraft, it was Derleth who became the creator and head of the Arkham House publishing house, which published the works of Lovecraft himself, Derleth and everyone who somehow came into contact with the worlds created by Lovecraft in their work.
Derleth was also quite successful as a writer, although he could not match the power of influence with his teacher.
However, he was a publishing genius — the books of the publishing house "Arkham House" of that period are now bibliographic rarities.
In addition, it was a rare case when a publishing house was created for the creativity of a particular person.
Stephen King
Lovecraft's work, which influenced the popular culture of the West, left an indelible mark on the work of countless writers who worked and are working in the genre of mysticism and horror.
One of the creative heirs of Lovecraft is Stephen King.
The most striking work in which Stephen King does not imitate the manner of narration by Howard Lovecraft, but pays tribute to the talent of the latter, is the story "Crouch End", adapted by the TNT film company in the collection of film novels "Nightmares and Fantasies of Stephen King".
In the works of King, traces of the influence of Lovecraft's work are clearly visible.
Thus, the Novel " It " directly refers the reader to the cosmic horror that came from time immemorial.
It should be noted, however, that King's horror can be quite clearly divided into three main parts: cosmic (Lovecraft), afterlife and scientific (Mary Shelley).
Among other things, the action of most of Stephen King's books takes place in small American towns, which is also characteristic of the works of Lovecraft, who believed that the most terrible things happen in quiet places.
"Necronomicon" and other books in the works of Lovecraft[edit / edit wiki text]
There is a portal in Wikipedia
"Lovecraft's horrors"
Necronomicon (the book was made by an admirer of Lovecraft).
Lovecraft usually referred to ancient books containing secrets that a person should not know.
Most of the references were fictional, but some occult works existed in reality.
The combination of fictional documents with real ones in one context allowed the former to seem real.
Lovecraft gave only general references to such books (mainly to inflate the atmosphere) and rarely made a detailed description.
The most famous of these fictional manuscripts is his "Necronomicon", about which the writer spoke most of all.
His explanations about this text were so well thought out that many people still believe in the reality of this book, and this allows some to profit from the ignorance of others.
The Book of Eibon, Livre d’Eibon, or Liber Ivonis
Invented by Clark Ashton Smith.
Lovecraft referred to this book only a few times in his stories: "Dreams in the Witch's House", "The Creature on the Threshold", and "The Shadow from the Ever after".
In the last two years of his life, Lovecraft gave references to two "translations" of this book: "Livre d'eibon" ("The Diary of Alonzo Typer") and"Liber Ivonis"("Dwelling in Darkness").
In the story "The Stone Man", the book of Eibon serves as the main book of the Van Kauran family line of sorcerers, carefully hidden and inherited.
Judging by the description presented there, it is something like a collection of recipes — mostly magical, but also based on physics, chemistry and other ordinary sciences.
Cultes des Goules by the Comte d’Erlette
The name can be translated as "Cults of ghouls".
The name of the author of this book was formed from the name of August Derleth, whose ancestors moved from France and whose surname was historically correctly spelled as D'Erlette.
As in many similar cases, Lovecraft referred to this book only a few times: in the stories "The Shadow from the Ever after", "Lurking at the threshold" and "Dwelling in the Dark".
De Vermis Mysteriis by Ludvig Prinn
The " Mysteries of the Worm "(in some translations — "Mysterious Worms") and their author Ludwig Prinn were invented by Robert Bloch, and the Latin title of the book" De Vermis Mysteriis " was invented by Lovecraft.
He referred to it in the stories "The Shadow from the Ever after", "The Diary of Alonzo Typer", "The Only Heir" and "Dweller in Darkness".
It is noteworthy that this book is mentioned by Stephen King in the story "The Lot of Jerusalem" and in the novel "Rebirth".
The Eltdown Shards
This work is the creation of the imagination of Richard F. Sirait, one of Lovecraft's correspondents.
Lovecraft briefly mentioned him in his works: "A Shadow from the Ever after" and "The Diary of Alonzo Typer".
The Necronomicon or Al Azif of Abdul Alhazred
Perhaps the most famous of Lovecraft's hoaxes.
He gave references to the "Necronomicon", also known as" Al Asif", in 18 of his stories.
The real Arabic name of this manuscript was "Al Asif", which meant "the sound produced by nocturnal insects", which, according to the Arabs, was actually made by demons.
Abdul Alhazred, the mythical author of this book, lived in Damascus, where the "Necronomicon"was written.
In 738 AD, he was publicly consumed by an invisible demon.
"Al Asif" was translated into Greek by Theodore Philetus from Constantinople, who gave the manuscript the name "Necronomicon".
According to Lovecraft's book "The History of the Necronomicon", Olaus Wormius translated the text into Latin in 1228.
In 1232, shortly after the translation by Wormius, Pope Gregory IX banned both the Greek and Latin versions of the book.
Wormius notes that the original Arabic text was already lost by that time.
Dr. John Dee translated it into English (XVI century), but only a few fragments of this version have survived to our time.
Currently, the Latin translation of the XV century is in the British Museum, the editions of the XVII century are in the National Library in Paris, the Harvard library, the University of Buenos Aires, and the fictional, Miskatonic University of Arkham.
All these copies are carefully preserved.
The first time the "Necronomicon" is mentioned in the story "The Dog" (September 1922), although Abdul Alhazred, the author of this work, is mentioned earlier, in "The Nameless City" (January 1921).
It is here that the most famous saying from the "Necronomicon" is mentioned for the first time:
That is not dead which can eternal lie,
And with strange aeons even death may die.
Perhaps the longest excerpt from the Necronomicon is found in the story "The Horror at Dunwich":
...one should not believe that man is the only and last ruler of the world.
And its vital substance is not the only one existing on Earth.
The ancients were, the Ancients exist, the Ancients will always be.
But not in the world we know, but between worlds.
Original, strong and healthy.
They are invisible to our eyes.
One Yogi Sothoth knows the entrance to this world.
Yogi Sothoth is both the key and the guardian of this gate.
The past, the present and the future are one in Yog Sothoth.
He knows the place where the Ancients made their way in the past, knows where They will pass into the future.
He knows their footprints on the Ground, which they leave, invisible.
By the smell alone, people recognize their presence, but their image is recognized in the appearance of those whom they have produced among the mortal children of men, from the appearance of a person to a form without substance.
Invisible, They circle the Earth, waiting for the right words of the Ritual.
Their voice sounds in the wind, the grass whispers about Their presence.
They uproot forests, destroy cities, but no one sees the punishing Hand.
In the icy deserts, Kadaf knew them, and has man ever known Kadaf?
The ice in the north and the submerged islands in the oceans hide the stones on which the Seals are inscribed.
Yogi Sothoth will open the doors before which the spheres close.
Man reigns where They once ruled.
But as winter comes after summer, and winter is replaced by spring, so They are waiting in the Wings!!!
The People of the Monolith by Justin Geoffrey
The book and the author were invented by Robert Howard, but Lovecraft only once refers to them in the story "The Creature on the Threshold":
As time passed, I became interested in architecture and abandoned my plan to illustrate a book of demonic poems by Edward, however, our friendship did not suffer and did not become weaker.
The unusual genius of the young Derby received an amazing development, and in the eighteenth year of his life he released a collection of macabre lyrics under the title "Azatot and other horrors", which made a sensation.
He was in a lively correspondence with the infamous Baudelaire poet Justin Jeffrey, the same one who wrote "The People of the Monolith" and in 1926 died screaming in a madhouse, shortly before visiting some sinister and notorious village in Hungary.
You can learn about Justin Jeffrey in the short story "The Black Stone" (1931) by Robert Howard.
The Pnakotic Manuscripts (or Fragments)
Another Lovecraft hoax.
His "Pnakotic manuscripts" or " Fragments "(references in 11 works) are second only to the"Necronomicon" in terms of frequency of circulation.
Lovecraft does not provide any details about the origin or content of these texts.
Most likely, these texts were written in the pre human period.
Seven Cryptical Books of Hsan
Lovecraft only mentioned the books of Hsan in "Other Gods" and "The Somnambulistic Search for Kadaf the Unknown "both times, along with"Pnakotic Manuscripts".
Unaussprechlichen Kulten, Black Book, or Nameless Cults by Friedrich von Junzt
Robert Howard first introduced " Unnamed Cults "in his short story" Children of the Night " (1931).
The following year, Lovecraft came up with a German name for these works, since von Juntz wrote the original in German.
This title, "Ungenennte Heidenthume", did not satisfy some of Lovecraft's correspondents.
August Derleth changed it to "Unaussprechlichen Kulten", which became established (although in translation it meant" Unpronounceable cults", that is, cults whose name cannot be pronounced.
"Die Unaussprechlichen Kulten" or "Unaussprechliche Kulten" would be more correct).
Although Lovecraft did not refer to this book more often than to others, he gives its publication history in the story "Out of Time":
In fact, any reader of the terrible "Nameless Cults" of von Juntz could at first glance establish an indisputable connection between them and the mysterious writings on the film.
But at that time, few people knew this blasphemous work: its first edition was destroyed in Dusseldorf in 1839, in 1845 a translation by Bredwell appeared, and in 1909 a much abridged version was published.
The" Black Book "of von Juntz is found in several stories by Robert Howard:" Children of the Night "(1931)," Black Stone "(1931)," The Creature on the Roof " (1932).
The last story presents the history of the writing and publication of this book.
R’lyeh Text
This text is mentioned by Lovecraft in the story "Lurking at the Threshold".
In the same story, a secondary indirect reference to this text is given through another fictional book by Professor Shrewsbury, "A Study of Myth Making among Primitive Peoples about the Last Day with Special mention of the R'lykh Text".

The acquaintance of the Russian reader with the work of Lovecraft took place in 1991-1993.
Two groups of enthusiasts played a key role in this:
1. The writer Evgeny Golovin and the Moscow translator Valeria Bernatskaya prepared a 256 page collection of the writer's short stories for the publishing house "Terra Incognita" (1991).
2. A team of translators from Yekaterinburg, formed around the literary agency Kubin Ltd, prepared a complete 4 volume collection of Lovecraft's works for the Forum publishing house (1991-1993).
The group included Igor Bogdanov, Vasily Dorogokuplya, Fyodor Eremeev and Oleg Michkovsky.
In total, they published 12 books of Lovecraft in publishing houses in Moscow, Kiev, Yekaterinburg and Nizhny Novgorod.
The same team is responsible for the publication of the 7 volume "Reader's Encyclopedia" and the creation of the publishing house "Comics Factory".
Currently, Lovecraft's collections are regularly reprinted in Russia by at least three major publishing houses — "Azbuka", "AST", "Eksmo".
In 2006, interest in Lovecraft's works in Russia was greatly fueled after the "Question to Putin" campaign, during which the President of Russia was asked questions pre selected by Internet voting.
Unexpectedly, as a result of a flash mob, the comic question "How do you feel about the awakening of Cthulhu?"won the vote[8].
After that, the image and name of Cthulhu began to be used much more often in the Runet.
