But in translation it might be something like <em>The Fantastic and its Events: A comparative study of the works of Jules Verne and H. P. Lovecraft<\/em>. The book appears to offer a good deal of historical context, more for Poe than for Lovecraft. This was the author&#8217;s first book, and he later wrote more books on Verne, as well as one on vampires, another on images of Bohemianism, and three books of essays on the fantastic. <\/p>\n<p>Regrettably the book&#8217;s chapter PDFs are now behind an &#8216;academic libraries only&#8217; paywall.
