A seemingly new (Nov 2011) short scholarly paper, in French. Reflets de villes dans le désert : de Lovecraft a Borges (“Reflections of cities in the desert: Lovecraft to Borges”)…
“There is a traditional conception of the fantastic city. It rises in the Gothic novel, and has been perpetuated in the modern horror, imposing an urban topography across two or three levels — articulated as a social reality, a visceral fear, and as a symbolic expression.”

Four new Lovecraft letters discovered and currently for sale on eBay with full transcriptions…
“Regarding copyrights – I never bothered with such things. The chances of pirating are really very remote & when a piece is professionally published, the magazine holds the copyrights [for the] “First North American Serial Rights Only.” This means that you are selling only the first printing. If an anthology copies the piece or if the magazine decides to reprint it, more pay is due you — though re-sale prices seldom equal those for a first printing. Re-sales sometimes (illegible) up quite impressively — my “Erich Zann”, for instance has been used six times in America and England. ” — letter to the young Robert Nelson, 16th January 1935.
