nové vydání klasické anglické četby
Thus Henry James described the style of supernatural tale of which
Sheridan Le Fanu was a master. Known in nineteenth-century Dublin as
`The Invisible Prince' because of his reclusive and nocturnal habits,
Le Fanu was fascinated by the occult. His writings draw on the Gothic
tradition, elements of Irish folklore, and even on the social and
political anxieties of his Anglo-Irish contemporaries. In exploring
sometimes inexplicable terrors, the tales focus on the unease of the
haunted men and women who encounter the supernatural, rather than on
the origin or purpose of the visitant. This makes for spine-chilling
reading.
The five stories presented here have
been collected by Dr Hesselius, a `metaphysical' doctor, the forerunner
of the modern psychiatrist, who is willing to consider the ghosts both
as real and as hallucinatory obsessions. The reader's doubtful anxiety
mimics that of the protagonist, and each story thus creates that
atmosphere of mystery which is the supernatural experience.
