Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Where the beautiful and the terrifying meet. A final testament to the hidden, sublime realities of the world.Holy Terrors is a major collection of works by Arthur Machen, compiled toward the end of his career. It brings together some of his most potent and disturbing short fiction, presenting a comprehensive look at his core philosophy: that the world is a fragile illusion veiling an ultimate reality that is both horribly monstrous and sublimely divine.The title itself reflects the core paradox of Machen's genius. The 'Terrors' are not simple frights, but the profound dread that overwhelms human understanding when it encounters the 'Holy'--the ancient, spiritual, and often pagan truths that lie beneath the surface of everyday life.The collection typically includes narratives that highlight this duality, drawing from both Machen's tales of atavistic horror and his explorations of spiritual transcendence:The Persistence of Evil: Stories often feature the dark, ongoing presence of the 'Little People'--a degenerate, subterranean race that continues their savage rites of human sacrifice and ritualistic murder into the modern era (as seen in tales like 'The Red Hand' or 'The Shining Pyramid').The Contagion of the Past: Machen explores the idea that ancient evil can be passed on, not through ghosts, but through physical, chemical, or spiritual transmutation (as in 'The Novel of the White Powder').The Ecstasy of Gnosis: Alongside the horror, the collection features Machen's deeply mystical writings, where characters experience a sudden, overwhelming bliss or a sublime sense of the holy, confirming that the ultimate reality is one of powerful, terrible beauty (themes found in 'A Fragment of Life' or 'The Hill of Dreams').Holy Terrors serves as a definitive statement of Arthur Machen's unique contribution to literature. It is an essential volume for readers seeking philosophical horror that explores the deepest, most contradictory longings and fears of the human soul.…
