Note(s) : Notes bibliogr. p. 261-268Lovecraft was one of the brightest stars of the horror and science fiction magazines, but died in poverty and relative obscurity in the 1930s. In 2005 he was finally elevated from pulp status to the classical literary canon with the release of a Library of America volume dedicated to his work. The impact of Lovecraft on philosophy has been building for more than a decade. In this book, the author extracts the basic philosophical concepts underlying Lovecraft's work, yielding a "weird realism" capable of freeing continental philosophy from its current soul-crushing impasse. -- Cover p. 4
