Der findes forløbere for science fiction-litteraturen helt tilbage til de gamle grækere. Men det er i perioden 1870-1920, at genren for alvor vinder udbredelse og udvikles af forfattere der ser at den passer til den nye tidsalder – en periode med voldsom udvikling indenfor videnskab og teknologi, men også indenfor samfundsforholdene.Den brede befolkning møder især teknologien gennem de mange nye opfindelser, der pludselig bliver en del af hverdagen for mange. Videnskaben som sådan er noget lidt mere fjernt, men tidens medier melder jævnligt om nye fantastiske gennembrud. De mange omvæltninger, både i dagligdagen og i verdensbilledet, giver anledning til litterær bearbejdning i såvel skrækscenarier som mere humoristiske historier. Hvem skulle fx have troet at mobiltelefonen første gang blev beskrevet i 1913, lydbøger i 1889 og fjernundervisning i 1899? I den mere alvorlige afdeling optræder bl.a. forestillinger om krig ved hjælp af klimavåben, terror ved hjælp af klodens energireserver og et uetisk eksperiment på indbyggerne i en belgisk landsby – sidstnævnte af ingen ringere end Jules Verne.Dette udvalg af historier om gale videnskabsmænd, fjollede opfindere og deres frembringelser bringer historier fra Storbritannien, USA, Australien, Frankrig, Tyskland, Østrig, Irland og Finland. Det viser at frygten for og forventningerne til den nye teknologi var vidt udbredte, uanset om de så blev behandlet alvorligt eller mere humoristisk.Indhold:Niels Dalgaard: Da science fiction blev moderneGustav Meyrink: Petroleum, petroleumGeorge Griffith: Det elektriske monopolJules Verne: Doktor OxClotilde Graves: Lady Clanbevans BabyCharles Howard Shinn: En opfinders dagbogEdward Page Mitchell: Den dygtigste mand i verdenHerbert C.

Tous les trentetrois ans le Golem, créature d'argile que certains rabbins doués de pouvoirs magiques savent transformer en sinistre automate, apparaît dans le ghetto de Prague afin d'y hanter ses habitants dans un but mystérieux. Lors d'une nuit tourmentée, le narrateur plonge dans un rêve qui va le faire vivre des événements qui se sont passés, il y a plus de trente ans, dans le vieux ghetto de Prague. Dans la peau d'un certain tailleur, Athanasius Pernath, il va errer dans le labyrinthe du ghetto, et va ainsi accéder à son propre passé... Le Golem est l'un des grands classiques de la littérature fantastique, l'un des chefsd'oeuvre de la littérature germanophone. Cet étrange roman, si mystérieux qu'on n'en devine pas toutes les richesses à la première lecture, marie la cabale et le folklore des ghettos, le fantastique et le policier, le psychologique et l'amour, alliant le rêve, la folie, les théories freudiennes, les fantômes, les brumes romantiques, les mystères égyptiens, la francmaçonnerie et l'occultisme...

This collection contains short stories translated for the first time as well as stories featured in Dedalus anthologies. Together with volume 1 they comprise the most comprehensive collection of Meyrink short stories to appear in English. "Meyrink's short stories epitomised the non-plus-ultra of all modern writing. Their magnificent colour, their spine-chilling and bizarre inventiveness, their aggression, their succinctness of style, their overwhelming originality of ideas, which is so evident in every sentence and phrase that there seem to be no lacunae." -- Max Brod"These tales - sc-fi, ghost-stories, gothic fables, oriental allegories - were written in the first decade of the century and are now translated for the first time. They make a magnificent introduction to his bizarre genius, which combined the sharp Bohemian scepticism of his contemporary Kafka with the mordant humour and outreach of Swift." -- Independent on Sunday

First published in 1994 it is a welcome return for these classic stories in a 2-volume collection of Meyrink's short stories. "Meyrink's short stories epitomised the non-plus-ultra of all modern writing. Their magnificent colour, their spine-chilling and bizarre inventiveness, their aggression, their succinctness of style, their overwhelming originality of ideas, which is so evident in every sentence and phrase that there seem to be no lacunae." -- Max Brod"These tales - sc-fi, ghost-stories, gothic fables, oriental allegories - were written in the first decade of the century and are now translated for the first time.

The White Dominican is Meyrink's most esoteric novel, and draws on the wisdom of a number of mystical traditions, the most important of which is Tao. It is set in a mystical version of the Bavarian town of Wassserburg which sits on a promontory surrounded on three sides by the river Inn. The novel describes the spiritual journey of the simple hero, who, guided by a number of figures including his eccentric father, the spirit of of a distant ancestor, the protecting presence of his dead lover and the mysterious figure of the White Dominican, escapes the 'Medusa head' of the world to a transfiguration, through which he joins the 'living chain that stretches to infinity'.

Ein Reisender besucht in Wien das Theater und lernt dort die jugendliche Chansonette "Izzi Pizzi" kennen. Doch er erlaubt sich einen grausamen Scherz mit ihr ... Stefan Kaminski liest Gustav Meyrink in einer ungekürzten Fassung.

I tetti aguzzi dei palazzi spiccano sopra la città di Praga. Lungo i cimiteri, per quei vicoli stretti, bui e lunghi, strane figure si aggirano in silenzio. Uno scambio di cappelli avviene nel ghetto. Un uomo indossa per caso quello di Athanasius Pernath, che di lavoro intaglia le pietre. Il velo tra realtà e sogno si squarcia. La vita del gioielliere comincia a scorrere davanti all’uomo come una visione. Una vita fatta di riti antichi, sortilegi religiosi, evocazioni cabalistiche — il Golem è uscito dalla leggenda.Gustav Meyer, più noto come Gustav Meyrink (1868-1932) è stato uno scrittore austriaco. Molto appassionato di esoterismo e misticismo, i suoi scritti sono grandemente influenzati dalla cabala e dall’occultismo. Tra le sue opere più famose ricordiamo "Il Golem" e "La Notte di Valpurga".

En historie fra Prag fortæller, at Golem blev skabt af rabbi Löw som beskyttelse mod kristne forbrydere, der ville hænge jøderne i ghettoen op på et mord på et kristent barn. Figuren blev formet af ler, fik en seddel med en besværgelse anbragt under tungen, og blev manet til live af Löw og andre rabbinere. En Golem ses oftest som en menneskelignende statue, der er givet liv og bevægelighed. Den menes at få sin livskraft fra de hellige ord, der ridses i dens pande eller placeres på pergament i dens mund. Golem er altid stum.Myten om Golem danner baggrundstema for Gustav Meyrinks fantastisk-mystiske roman.
