Published in English. <\/p>\n<p>The latest issue (2022) has &#8220;Recomposing Lovecraft: Genre Emulation as Autopoiesis in the First Edition of <em>Call of Cthulhu&#8221;<\/em>. This suggests that the new fusing of sub-genres in the then-new game, built atop Lovecraft&#8217;s Mythos, was a response to&#8230; &#8220;perceived threats to the American way of life during <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=gtAhEpX5bHE\">the early Reagan Era&#8221;<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p>Also, new on Archive.org, <a href=\"https:\/\/archive.org\/details\/storyworldsacros0000unse\/page\/n7\/mode\/2up\">&#8220;The Developing Storyworlds of H.P.

Two articles, plus book reviews. Online now, in open-access. The journal has a gushing but useful summary review of a book, re: Lovecraft&#8217;s commercial and fannish after-lives.
