Modern Lovecraftian Works on Horror Fictions
Lovecraftian horror is a kind of horror fiction which presents the cosmic horror of the unknown over gore, life, trouble or other elements of shock. It is named after American author H. P. Lovecraft (1890–1937) in which supernatural and horror colors Lovecraft stories.
Lovecraft wrote with his story-telling style, manifested in his mythos that involved supernatural, pre-human, and extraterrestrial elements. Previous authors such as Edgar Allan Poe and Algernon Blackwood inpired him.
Lovecraaft used several themes found as the component of a "Lovecraftian" work, namely:
- Anti-anthropocentrism, misanthropy in general. Human is not central and not significant entities in the universe. Misanthropy is ascribed to a number of writers of satire.Misanthropy means to disgust with, distaste for, and general dislike of human beings. it can be also intrepreted as no interest in fellow man, distrust toward the intent and value of humanity.
- Antiquarian writing style. Although dealing with technology, Lovecraft used anachronisms as well as old-fashioned words to describe such things. Anachronism is an inconsistency in some chronological arrangement, especially a chronological misplacing of persons, events, objects, or customs in regard to each other.
- Detachment. Lovecraftian heroes are usually isolated individuals.
- Heroes' victory is temporary and they ussualy pay back for it or there is possibility of problem or antagonist to raise.
- Forbidden knowledge. Characters in Lovecraft do not understand what happened to them. There us unanswered question and there is something beyond their mind capacity. It's about mystery.
Lovecraft quotes state:
The most merciful thing in the world... is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents.
- Non-human influences on humanity
- Fate
- Civilization under threat
- Risks of a scientific era
His works ( in lovecraft books and short stories) has influenced to modern horror stories in literature (novel, shosrt stories), games (mystery games and horror games), and horror movie (lovecraft movies, and other horror movies list ).
Lovecraftians put fear, supernatural things, and mystery in their mysterious and scary short stories.
Modern Lovecraftian writers present 26 dark stories of tales of horror in The Anthology Historical Lovecraft: Tales of Horros Through Time by Innsmouth Free Press, 2011. This book put horror stories in historical setting. Stalin’s Russia, 10th century Rome, ancient Kingdom in Asia, and Neolithic Mesopotamia are just some of the backdrops before which madness and history collide.

Pre Easter
Humanizing Human Beings, To Be Little Candles for Others
It is mini article which I wrote during Pre-Easter.

Easter refers to celebration of Pesakh or Passover. Gospels say Jesus rose from the dead on the third day after his crucifixion. Some Christians celebrate Jesus's resurrection on Easter Sunday which is also called Resurrection Day or Resurrection Sunday, two days after Good Friday and three days after Maundy Thursday. The essense of easter is resurrection - resurrection of new life, resurrection which refers to salvation and freedom.
However, there is cultural modification among Pagan, Hebrew and Christian in Easter. Tradition about Easter Bunny and Easter Egg and various easter ideas are related to its cultural modification. You can know it from History of Easter and Origin of Easter.

White Cat with Beautiful Blue Eyes
Humanizing Human Beings, To Be Little Candles for Others
According to Sarah Hartwell, in her article: WHITE CATS, EYE COLOURS AND DEAFNESS:
"Dominant white masks all other colours and cats may have blue, orange or odd eyes. Those with blue eyes have a high chance of deafness. Those with one blue eye have a high chance of deafness on the blue-eyed side. Those with orange eyes are far less likely to be deaf.
There is an established link between the white coat color, blue eyes and deafness. The tapetum lucidum is generated from the same stem cells as melanocytes (pigment cells). The blue eyes in a piebald or epistatic white cat indicates a lack of tapetum. Deafness is caused by an absence of a cell layer in the inner ear that originates from the same stem cells as well. In odd-eyed white cats, the ear on the blue-eyed side may be deaf.
# 5% of the general cat population is white cats (i.e. pure white). 15-40% of these pure white cats have one or two blue-eyes.
# Of those white cats with one or two blue eyes, 60-80% are deaf; 20-40% have normal hearing; 30-40% had one blue eye and were deaf while 60-70% had one blue eye and normal hearing.
# Deaf white cats with one or two blue eyes account for 0.25 - 1.5 of total cat population
# Total number of cats with white coat and blue eyes account for 0.75 - 2.0% of total cat population"
Sixty percents of white cats with blue eyes are deaf and I have a fable story of one of them.
