Livestream - H.P. Lovecraft, Radical Leftist (10/30/20)
Walden Pod - Un pódcast de Emerson Green
Categorías:
Recently I learned that H.P. Lovecraft had undergone a surprising and dramatic political transformation in the final years of his brief life. I wanted to read from a few of Lovecraft's letters and discuss his views on capitalism, socialism, the influence of the profit motive on artistic expression, and cats. In these letters from the last several years of his life, his notorious racism seems to fade, and he explicitly rejects the reactionary, fascistic political ideology he held prior to 1931. He critiques capitalism, speaks glowingly of Marx, and warns us that our only options are socialism or barbarism. @waldenpod Discord Lovecraft Country - Champagne Sharks [Soundcloud] Lovecraft Letters: 1937, Catherine Moore 1936, 1937 Arthur Sechrist 1934, Helen Barlow Lovecraft Audiobooks: Dagon The Call of Cthulhu At the Mountains of Madness The Shadow Over Innsmouth The Cats of Ulthar
