"Unearthing the Final Shadows of a Victorian Master."For the true connoisseur of the macabre, the journey does not end with the well-known classics. Volume 18 of the A Book of Ghosts series represents the deep-strata of Sabine Baring-Goulds supernatural imagination.

These selections move beyond the standard haunting to explore "The Archaeology of Terror"where the horror is found in ancient artifacts, forgotten church records, and the dark corners of regional history. The prose here is steeped in the "Antiquarian Realism" that would later inspire the likes of M.R. James, focusing on the danger of intellectual curiosity and the physical weight of the past.A Collectors Essential: This volume is designed for those who seek to complete the definitive portrait of a Victorian polymath. It highlights Baring-Goulds unique ability to find the "unholy" within the "holy," using his deep knowledge of ecclesiastical history to craft scares that feel grounded in ancient truth.This archival edition is a must-have for scholars of Gothic literature, bibliophiles of the strange, and anyone dedicated to the preservation of classic British weird fiction.Complete the legacy.

O simbolismo começou com as primeiras palavras proferidas pelo primeiro homem, quando ele nomeou todos os seres vivos; ou antes disso, no céu, quando Deus nomeou o mundo para que ele existisse. E vemos, nestes primordios, precisamente o que o simbolismo na literatura realmente e: uma forma de expresso, na melhor das hipoteses aproximada, essencialmente arbitraria, ate obter a força de uma convenço, para uma realidade invisivel apreendida pela consciencia. Aqui, ento, nesta revolta contra a exterioridade, contra a retorica, contra uma tradiço materialista; neste esforço para desvincular a essencia ultima, a alma, de tudo o que existe e pode ser percebido pela consciencia; nesta espera obediente por cada simbolo por meio do qual a alma das coisas pode ser tornada visivel, a literatura, oprimida por tantos fardos, pode finalmente alcançar a liberdade e a sua linguagem autentica. Ao alcançar essa liberdade, ela aceita um fardo mais pesado; pois, ao falar-nos de forma to intima, to solene, como ate ento apenas a religio nos falava, ela propria se torna uma especie de religio, com todos os deveres e responsabilidades do ritual sagrado. Tambem me deu prazer ler os ensaios de O Simbolismo e seus ismos. Ja conhecia alguma coisa, mas ler o conjunto de textos sobre assunto to problematico foi muito bom. So tenho a lhe agradecer por me enviar tantos textos criticos, alguns deles bem dificeis de se encontrar por ai. Grande abraço, Alvaro Cardoso Gomes

As an illustrator and historian, I have found that there is a lack of material collected to facilitate the work of illustrators, historians, writers and to satisfy the curiosity of all those who are passionate about history. A lot of time had to be devoted to the search and selection of material, which was generally dispersed in numerous historical sites and documents. That is why I decided to organize several informative catalogues on airplanes, tanks, military uniforms, civilian clothing, weapons and ships. With this work I hope to have contributed to simplify the task of many professionals.

Este livro no nasceu de uma ideia clara. Nasceu de uma sensaço. A impresso persistente de que existem silencios que no so vazios. De que algumas coisas no se manifestam com violencia, mas com paciencia. De que o medo mais duradouro no vem do que nos ataca, e sim do que permanece. Ao longo da escrita, A Voz da Escurido nunca foi sobre criar respostas. Foi sobre respeitar perguntas que no deveriam ser resolvidas com facilidade. O que acontece quando olhamos fundo demais? O que permanece depois que voltamos? E, principalmente, o que muda quando percebemos que certas presenças nunca precisaram ser chamadas? Os personagens deste livro no so herois, nem vitimas completas. So pessoas comuns atravessadas por algo que no se explica em termos simples. Nenhuma deciso aqui e confortavel. Nenhuma escolha e totalmente livre. E algumas consequencias no existem para ensinar liçes apenas para existir. Se este livro causa desconforto, ele cumpre seu papel. Se deixa espaços em branco, eles so intencionais. Nem todo silencio precisa ser preenchido. Nem toda escurido quer ser iluminada. Ha historias que se encerram quando a ultima pagina termina. Outras continuam em estado latente, esperando o momento certo para responder. Esta e uma delas. Se, ao fechar o livro, algo parecer ainda proximo demais, no e coincidencia. Algumas vozes no se calam quando a leitura acaba. Elas apenas aguardam.
