 "The Anglophile nature of the American writer H. P. Lovecraft is well known in Lovecraftian circles, the writer once remarking in a 1927 letter: ‘If I could create an ideal world, it would be an England with the fire of the Elizabethans, the correct taste of the Georgians, and the refinement and pure ideals of the Victorians.’ However, while Lovecraft’s penchant for all things English is ostensibly and perhaps somewhat superficially accepted by such scholars, there has been relatively little academic work undertaken concerned directly with the writer’s potential integration of this affinity for anything English into his fiction." |
