International Journal of Role-Playing is now up to 12 annual issues. It was located in the Netherlands but has now moved to a new home and URL in Sweden. Published in English.

The latest issue (2022) has “Recomposing Lovecraft: Genre Emulation as Autopoiesis in the First Edition of Call of Cthulhu”. This suggests that the new fusing of sub-genres in the then-new game, built atop Lovecraft’s Mythos, was a response to… “perceived threats to the American way of life during the early Reagan Era”.

Also, new on Archive.org, “The Developing Storyworlds of H.P. Lovecraft”. Found in a 2014 collection from the University of Nebraska. This discusses Lovecraft’s inherent “transmedia adaptability” and the ever-growing range of new fan-work and products based around his Mythos.

The new journal The Incredible Nineteenth Century: Science Fiction, Fantasy, and Fairy Tale has published its first issue. Two articles, plus book reviews. Online now, in open-access. The journal has a gushing but useful summary review of a book, re: Lovecraft’s commercial and fannish after-lives. This review would fit well with a reading of the above two articles.
