Abstract:
Abstract The classical detective story is based on a teleological certainty offered by the narrative. In these stories, the detective successfully solves the crime, and the lawful order is restored in an assuring manner, so the closure of the narrative structure does not allow for an open ending in ontological terms. However, weird fiction and its most recent form, new weird, have a different approach to the teleological givens prescribed by the classical detective story (whodunit). The weird investigation is paradigmatically open-ended, and the detective most often fails to solve the case. Th

Abstract:
Abstract Has the world become weirder? This is a question that a reader of twentieth-century fiction might ask, perhaps especially a reader of realist novels. These novels, as I argue in my recent book Novels by Aliens, evince a genre creep of science fiction, fabulism, and the weird that contends with the fractured and competing crises of our time. By extending this argument through a set of contemporary novellas, I discuss why genre is functioning as an important critical resource for twenty-first-century writing and how the form of the novella focuses genre debates on problems of scale and

Abstract:
Weird Fiction is often understood as an unclassifiable fusion of horror, science fiction (SF) and fantasy, and therefore a kind of generically hybridized writing. Here I discuss various parallels between Weird Fiction and music marketed and recognized as ‘extreme metal’, an umbrella term for bands playing in the core styles of black, death and doom metal, and their various offshoots like grindcore and sludge. Analysis of all Weird Metal is beyond the scope of this article, so I focus on artists who achieve Weirdness through the presence and interrelationship of hybridity, numinosity (an overwh

Abstract:
A modern irodalmi mainstream a 20. század első évtizedeiben kezdett el leválni a vulgáris formáiról, a sci-firől, a horrorról, a fantasyről, vagy ahogy akkoriban az angolszász kontextusban nevezték, a weird fictionről. A weird fiction szupernaturalizmusa összeegyeztethetetlennek tűnt a modern irodalom társadalmi realizmusával, ami rövidesen a közönség, a publikáció és a terjesztés csatornáinak különválását is eredményezte. Az esztétikailag érzékeny közönség, a patinás irodalmi kiadók, az irodalmi establisment elváltak a pulp magazinoktól és közönségüktől, a pult alóli terjesztéstől és a szub-l

Born in Bosnia in 1982, Asja Bakić now lives in Croatia, and publishes both in Croatia and Serbia. A member of a new generation of Balkan and post-Yugoslav writers, Bakić is not only poet and essayist, but also gained international success with her short story collection Mars (2015), which has been translated into English, German, and French. Bakić’s playful poetry, feminist polemical essays, and her genre-bending short stories position her as a subversive author in Croatian literature where neorealist poetics is still dominant. In contrast, Bakić’s short stories can best be described as “weir

Abstract: This introduction teases out the productive tension between female characters in modern fiction and the implied author as modeled by Mary Mc-Carthy's The Group . Fiction writers dramatize both women's intellection and self-expression and the barriers to that public role. Modern and contemporary women writers blur the lines between essay writing and fiction, professional and intellectual personae, and novelistic narration. Feminist theory also adapts fictional modes to speculate about living otherwise. Our special issue contributions feature collaboration, archives, praxis, the corpor

Abstract:
The essay focuses on the connections of Bruno Schulz’s stories with weird fiction. The author attempts to determine which features of Schulz’s fiction have made some critics to associate his name with that genre. Referring to the highly criticized essays by Kazimierz Wyka and Stefan Napierski, he wonders if applying to Schulz’s work a term rooted in romanticism, particularly in its „dark” variety, is well-founded. Ultimately, he concludes that Schulz’s fiction can be legitimately assigned to a literary tradition represented by Edgar Allan Poe. By the same token, weird fiction has been included

Abstract:
Abstract The short story is commonly – and very productively – treated in the spirit of critical terms such as marginality and liminality. Quite surprisingly, though, New Weird Fiction, which postulates similar interests in, e.g., formal and aesthetic innovation as well as literary ambition, is primarily associated with the novel. The underlying lack of interest in the New Weird Short Story in both popular culture and academic work is scrutinised in this article. In a first step, it will survey the short story as a liminal form, both formally and aesthetically, and contextualize it by drawing

However, the roots of the weird lie earlier and late-Victorian British and Edwardian writers such as Arthur Machen, Count Stenbock, M.P.

Abstract:
This dissertation explores how contemporary, small-press, speculative fiction deviates from other genres in depicting the processes of consciousness in narrative. I study how the confluence of contemporary cognitive theory and experimental, small-press, speculative fiction has produced a new narrative mode, one wherein literature portrays not the product of consciousness but its process instead. Unlike authors who worked previously in the stream-of-consciousness or interior monologue modes, writers in this new narrative mode (which this dissertation refers to as "the little weird") use the tec

“The Daemonology of Unplumbed Space: Weird Fiction, Disgust, and the Aesthetics of the Unthinkable” explores the aesthetic and metaphysical significance of disgust in weird fiction. Beginning with the weird’s forefather, Edgar Allan Poe, the study traces the twisted entanglement of metaphysics, aesthetics, affect, and weird fiction through the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, considering along the way the myriad attempts of authors such as Arthur Machen, Algernon Blackwood, and H.P. Lovecraft to stage encounters with the unthinkable. Drawing on recent philosophical efforts to reinvigo

Given his widening influence in genre fiction, it is also a term increasingly in vogue. But what do we mean when we say that a short story or novel (or even a poem) is Lovecraftian? In his creative, original take on the possible philosophical implications of Lovecraft’s fiction, Graham Harman gives us some clues as to what is meant and implied by the term.
