Hardcover. 191 pp. With original illustrations by Jim Pearson. A collection of Gothic tales by Igenio Ugo Tarchetti (1839-1869) of which he is considered to be the first "modern" practitioner. According to an article by Lawrence Venuit (the editor and translator of this volume) in the Los Angeles Review of Books, Tarchetti had by 1866 established himself as a known literary figure in Milan. He wrote most of his Gothic tales in 1868 or early 1869, designing them to bait the bourgeoisie by leaving behind concepts of "good sense and decency to explore dreams, insanity, violence, and aberrant sexuality". His tales also challenged "scientific rationality by treating alchemy, spiritualism, and even popular legend with the utmost verisimilitude.".…

Jacket illustration: Jim Pearson. keywords: Europe Italy Literature Translated World Literature. DESCRIPTION - 'Giulia's corpse. rests in her shroud as if wrapped in the veils of her virginal bed. Her beauty has lost none of its seductiveness. A white dress, light, almost diaphanous, covers her modest figure. Her pure white hands lie at her sides with the gentle surrender of sleep, and only her feet, pointing upward and joined together, bear witness to the horrible rigidity of death.' This passage from 'Bouvard,' a macabre evocation of obsessive love beyond the grave, typifies the eerie narratives in 'Fantastic Tales.' The first Gothic tales published in the Italian language, Tarchetti's strange stories recall and sometimes imitate those of Edgar Allan Poe, E. T. A. Hoffmann, and Mary Shelley. In 'A Spirit in a Raspberry,' a nobleman is possessed by the soul of a servant girl; 'The Letter U' recounts a man's mysterious phobia about that letter; the unexpected gift of everlasting life becomes a dreaded curse in 'The Elixir of Immortality.' William Weaver, translator of Umberto Eco, writes: 'Lawrence Venuti now presents the nineteenth-century writer Iginio Ugo Tarchetti - a strange, romantic figure now almost forgotten even by Italian readers. But, as Venuti's probing introduction to this collection of tales indicates, Tarchetti is emblematic, the child of his times and their taste. .The translations flow, yet retain the flavor of their period and are true to the style and personality of their curious, gifted author.' inventory #16886. …
