Editor's Note:
This anthology provides a representative selection of a century of French horror writing by such authors as Petrus Borel, Theophile Gautier, Gerard de Nerval, Charles Nodier, Guy de Maupassant, Charles Baudelaire, and J.K. Huysmans, most appearing for the first time in English. It traces the full development of a genre that initially appeared in the aftermath of the French Revolution, and has been used to explore the most terrifying aspects of science and social life.CONTENTSIntroduction · Terry Hale · in *The Lamp of Saint Just · Frédéric Soulié; trans. by Liz Heron · ss *The Travels of Claude Belissan · Eugène Sue; trans. by Terry Hale · ss *Solange · Alexandre Dumas · nv The London Journal, 1849Monsieur de l’Argentière, Public Prosecutor · Pétrus Borel; trans. by Terry Hale · nv *The Covetous Clerk · Alphonse Royer; trans. by Terry Hale · ss *One Eye Between Two · Xavier Forneret; trans. by Liz Heron · nv *Dorci, or the Vagaries of Chance · Marquis de Sade; trans. by Terry Hale · ss *Mademoiselle Scalpel · Charles Baudelaire; trans. by Terry Hale · ss *The Penitent · Catulle Mendès; trans. by Terry Hale · ss *The Astonishing Moutonnet Couple · Villiers de l’Isle-Adam; trans. by Terry Hale · ss *Constant Guignard · Jean Richepin; trans. by Terry Hale · ss *The Hanged Man · Charles Cros; trans. by Liz Heron · ss *Monsieur Mathias · Jules Lermina; trans. by Liz Heron · ss *A Burnt Offering · Léon Bloy; trans. by Terry Hale · ss *A Family Treat [from Becalmed] · J.
