Check your email in a few hours when I wake up. 'bout this thing, what is frightening is that while no other article backs up his point clearly, the rest is all debate, he says things like: [quote] Anton Derek et Raoul Marcadier Archivistes à la Bibliothèque Nationale. Pour l'accès privilégié à certains ouvrages. [/quote] Which roughly, and quite obviously translates to: [quote] .. and ... Archivists at the national library. For privileged access to some works. [/quote] And also, "Merci à ... Conservateur des galeries orientales du Musée du Louvre Pour les textes en arabe ancien." eq, thanks to the guy in charge for oriental Louvre galeries for ancient arabic texts. Granted, the guy has a thing for lovecraft, but as I said, he never, never ever gest judgemental, not a single "pro" or "con", only facts expressed as that, and legends told as legends. Basically, he says he has translated these "Psaknotic manuscripts", which in turn refer to Gods and Godesses that typically can be found in Lovecraft's mythology. And the so called translations tell tales of these Gods and Godesses, theyre relationships, and some obscure and extreme recommendations like: "C'est en tuant son frère que l'on renie sa famille." In that passage, he is saying (the psaknotic thing author) that the fact of killing one's brother, and negating one's humanity, leads to real elevation towards those demon-like Gods. Eeeeeeeeeek. ...... More fule to the fire, while chit-chatting, I found that the above link is a mirror to an old version of his site. Now, I've been spending quite some time tonight looking for the original "King in yellow" as I had said. Aka a book about a book, a series of short novels that revolve around a supposed book called "King in yellow". So far, so good, google won't mention the "book in the book" as something serious.. BUT. I just caught a scan of another, hand-written document in this guy's site. Which is the original "King in yellow", or a contemporary copy. ...a book supposed to drive the reader crazy. In the novel series, the original book is described as "state of the art in terms of beauty, but inevitably drives it's readers crazy or kills them". I am relatively courageous, quite like horror tales, but I dare anyone to stand what's in that book for more than 10 seconds. It's magnificient french poetry and indeed close to pure genius, but it's also terribly disturbing. Double eek. If this one is a hoax, (the King in Yellow), I am Wonder woman. Ok... this one truely scares me, but even if in french, tell me, does that print (Roi en Jaune section), the cover as well as text... does it sound like some hoax? I mean, the poetry is really exceptional, reaches levels set by everlasting giants like Baudelaire. An unknwon genius? Doubt that. http://www.hplovecraft-fr.com/index.php?LivresMaudits [small](Edited by [url=http://www.ozoneasylum.com/user/5827]_Mauro[/url] on 06-20-2006 06:59)[/small] Loading...
