[EAN: 9781489544704], Neubuch, [PU: CreateSpace Independent Publishing Platform], VARIOUS,DOROTHY SCARBOROUGH, Paperback. 394 pages. Dimensions: 9.0in. x 6.0in. x 0.9in.Heady, imaginative ghost fiction selected by a master of high literature. Ghosts have always haunted literature, and doubtless always will. Specters seem never to wear out or to die, but renew their tissue both of person and of raiment, in marvelous fashion, so that their number increases with a Malthusian relentlessness. We of to-day have the ghosts that haunted our ancestors, as well as our own modern revenants, and theres no earthly use trying to banish or exorcise them by such a simple thing as disbelief in them. Schopenhauer asserts that a belief in ghosts is born with man, that it is found in all ages and in all lands, and that no one is free from it. Since accounts vary, and our earliest antecedents were poor diarists, it is difficult to establish the apostolic succession of spooks in actual life, but in literature, the line reaches back as far as the primeval picture writing. A study of animism in primitive culture shows many interesting links between the past and the present in this matter. And anyhow, since man knows that whether or not he has seen a ghost, presently hell be one, hes fascinated with the subject. And he creates ghosts, not merely in his own image, but according to his dreams of power. The Willows by Algernon Blackwood The Shadows on the Wall by Mary E. Wilkins The Messenger by Robert W. Chambers Lazarus by Leonid Andreyev The Beast with Five Fingers by W. F. Harvey The Mass of Shadows by Anatole France What Was It by Fitz-James O-Brien The Middle Toe of the Right Foot by Ambrose Bierce The Shell of Sense by Olivia Howard Dunbar The Woman at Seven Brothers by Wilbur Daniel Steele At The Gate by Myla Jo Closser Ligeia by Edgar Allan Poe The Haunted Orchard by Richard le Gallienne The Bowmen by Arthur Machen A Ghost by Guy de Maupassant This item ships from multiple locations.
