At The Mountains Of Madness
Lovecraft, H. P.
Synopsis "At The Mountains Of Madness"
""At the Mountains of Madness"" is a seminal novella by H.P. Lovecraft, published in 1936. Set in the desolate and unforgiving terrain of Antarctica, the narrative follows a scientific expedition that uncovers ancient and otherworldly horrors beneath the icy surface. As the team delves deeper into the mysteries of a long-lost civilization, they encounter terrifying cosmic entities and unearth unfathomable secrets that challenge their understanding of reality. Lovecraft's immersive prose and vivid descriptions create an atmosphere of mounting dread and existential terror, as the characters grapple with the ramifications of their discoveries. Through themes of forbidden knowledge, the insignificance of humanity in the face of cosmic entities, and the fragility of sanity, the novella serves as a cornerstone of Lovecraft's mythos, solidifying his reputation as a master of the weird and horror genres.
Howard Phillips Lovecraft (Providence, 20 de agosto de 1890-Providence, 15 de marzo de 1937) más conocido como H. P. Lovecraft, fue un escritor estadounidense, autor de relatos y novelas de terror y ciencia ficción.
Se le considera un gran innovador del cuento de terror, al que aportó una mitología propia —los Mitos de Cthulhu—, desarrollada en colaboración con otros autores, actualmente en vigencia.
Su obra constituye un clásico del horror cósmico, una línea narrativa que se aparta de las tradicionales historias de terror sobrenatural —satanismo, fantasmas—, incluyendo elementos de ciencia ficción como, por ejemplo, razas alienígenas, viajes en el tiempo o existencia de otras dimensiones.
