Non sentite “nella notte immobile, un suon di passi che si avvicinano rapidi”? Tra poco scorgerete, più nera del buio, la figura che cerca proprio voi. Chi è mai colui che viene? Se non volete conoscere la risposta, tenetevi alla larga da cimiteri di campagna e abbazie diroccate, templi dell’India e misteri delle Piramidi, ma diffidate anche del vostro collega, se tiene appeso al soffitto, imbalsamato, “un autentico figlio del vecchio Nilo, un gran coccodrillo dalla bocca spalancata”. Se invece non avete paura d’impicciarvi di “cose che non sono di competenza umana”, andate pure a caccia di spettri in compagnia di Sir Arthur Conan Doyle e correte i rischi dell’Occulto insieme ai suoi indagatori dell’incubo. Penetrerete allora nei misteri “del più reale e augusto dei sacramenti, la comunione con i morti”. Giulio Giorello

Pastoral Drama and Healing in Early Modern Italy represents the first full-length study to confront seriously the well-rehearsed analogy of the pastoral poet as healer. Usually associated with the edifying function of the Renaissance pastoral, this analogy, if engaged more profoundly, raises a number of questions that remain unanswered to this day. How does the pastoral heal? How exactly do the inner workings of the text cater to the healing? What socio-cultural conventions make the healing possible? What are the major problems that pastoral poetry as mimesis must overcome to make its healing morally legitimate? In the wake of Derrida's seminal work on the Platonic pharmakon, which has in turn led recent criticism to formulate a much more concrete understanding of the theater/drug analogy, the stringent approach to the therapeutic function of the Renaissance pastoral offered in this work provides a valuable critical tool to unpack the complexity contained within a little-understood cliché.

Holy War, Martyrdom, and Terror examines the ways that Christian theology has shaped centuries of conflict from the Jewish-Roman War of late antiquity through the First Crusade, the French Revolution, and up to the Iraq War. By isolating one factor among the many forces that converge in war—the essential tenets of Christian theology—Philippe Buc locates continuities in major episodes of violence perpetrated over the course of two millennia. Even in secularized or explicitly non-Christian societies, such as the Soviet Union of the Stalinist purges, social and political projects are tied to religious violence, and religious conceptual structures have influenced the ways violence is imagined, inhibited, perceived, and perpetrated. The patterns that emerge from this sweeping history upend commonplace assumptions about historical violence, while contextualizing and explaining some of its peculiarities. Buc addresses the culturally sanctioned logic that might lead a sane person to kill or die on principle, traces the circuitous reasoning that permits contradictory political actions, such as coercing freedom or pardoning war atrocities, and locates religious faith at the backbone of nationalist conflict. He reflects on the contemporary American ideology of war—one that wages violence in the name of abstract notions such as liberty and world peace and that he reveals to be deeply rooted in biblical notions. A work of extraordinary breadth, Holy War, Martyrdom, and Terror connects the ancient past to the troubled present, showing how religious ideals of sacrifice and purification made violence meaningful throughout history.

In contemporary political discourse, it is common to denounce violent acts as “terroristic.” But this reflexive denunciation is a surprisingly recent development. In A Genealogy of Terror in Eighteenth-Century France, Ronald Schechter tells the story of the term’s evolution in Western thought, examining a neglected yet crucial chapter of our complicated romance with terror. For centuries prior to the French Revolution, the word “terror” had largely positive connotations. Subjects flattered monarchs with the label “terror of his enemies.” Lawyers invoked the “terror of the laws.” Theater critics praised tragedies that imparted terror and pity. By August 1794, however, terror had lost its positive valence. As revolutionaries sought to rid France of its enemies, terror became associated with surveillance committees, tribunals, and the guillotine. By unearthing the tradition that associated terror with justice, magnificence, and health, Schechter helps us understand how the revolutionary call to make terror the order of the day could inspire such fervent loyalty in the first place—even as the gratuitous violence of the revolution eventually transformed it into the dreadful term we would recognize today. Most important, perhaps, Schechter proposes that terror is not an import to Western civilization—as contemporary discourse often suggests—but rather a domestic product with a long and consequential tradition.

La graziosa cittadina di Goldern Friars, che sorge sulla riva del lago, circondata da un anfiteatro di erte montagne rosseggianti, ricche di colore e solcate da burroni, è uno degli spettacoli più belli e più singolari mai visti. Nella Vendetta del lago, però, questo idilliaco paesaggio è presto destinato a cedere il passo a situazioni inquietanti, ai confini della realtà. Fantasmi, morti viventi, tenebrose apparizioni e vampiri, i personaggi più terrificanti, che hanno ispirato la grande letteratura del soprannaturale fino alle contemporanee propaggini del genere horror, popolano i racconti di Le Fanu. Il romanzo La vendetta del lago, insieme ai racconti Schalken il pittore e Il giudice Harbottle, è un esempio di una maestria visionaria senza eguali, ma anche dello stile limpido e suggestivo e delle ossessioni ricorrenti dello scrittore irlandese.
