@TheGoodCrusader denying and rationalizing what is going on around you despite all the evidence and proof staring you down non stop just because it does not fit your preconceived notions of the world around you IS a form of madness... In fact I dare say everyone in Lovecrafts works are mad with willful ignorance until they finally realize the true nature of the world they live in, after all it's not paranoia if someone IS out to get you.
@@TheGoodCrusader I once put ketchup on my sausage. A portly man with a great moustache and short, grey hair slapped me on the face and announced, not 'said' but announced, "YOU ARE NO GERMAN"
The Temple was the first of Lovecraft's works that I ever read and it still stands as one of my favorites. The idea of it being a "recovered journal" lends a kind of authenticity and limitation to the narrative that makes it special.
This story would be very different with a Brit sub captain. 'The old girl set down next to an old temple. Went for a stroll after tea. Weather isn't as unpleasant as one might expect. Plenty of light as well. Lovely view of the city. Some nice works of art. Some are a bit much, I must say. Don't worry for me, boys. I've got my feet under the table down here. When you're done with Jerry we'll share a laugh. Yours, Jack.'
Monster kicks him in the balls, and bites his arm off. German captain: This is all probably a hallucination, and I must have injured myself, without realizing it.
If you're going to take this idea into the literary genre, the concept of leaving a "fragment behind" for others to hear the tale, I'd say this actually goes back to the gothics. They loved fragments.
@@charlesallen Yeah, Dracula is a good example. I've also heard some argument for Poe, just like he effectively created detective fiction. Lovecraft definitely draws upon Poe.
As a framing device in storytelling that goes way back. See A STRANGE MANUSCRIPT FOUND IN A COPPER CYLINDER (1888, though it was written and serialized well before that book pub date). Lovecraft was hardly the first but he definitely utilized it to its greatest effect in the 20th century. The layer of mystery it added to his tales was indispensable.
I LOVe the genre and it's as old as the hills. The English of the King James translation of the Bible seems archaic today, what few appreciate is that is was archaic when it was written.
He certainly created the "found footage of someone writing a journal entry whilst being dragged into an abyss by a hideous abnormality" genre. I shall write "aghhhh---!" In my own journal on the day I succumb to a heart attack, if madness doesn't o'er crow me first.
H. P. Lovecraft was a master of cosmic horror. His work has influenced science fiction and horror for decades. Hardly anyone knows his name. True story, I was at the local library and I asked the librarian if they had any H. P. Lovecraft books, she quickly led me to a shelf with books on marital relations, how to pick up girls etc etc. I burst out laughing and was quickly shushed by her boss.
I've read Lovecraft's entire fiction, and from all of his lesser stories, this is my absolute favorite. The atmosphere, weirdness and dread in this story is amazing!
Lights completely out, still writes in his journal. Writes a hundred pages, still fits it in a bottle. Walks around in a deep underwater temple, extreme pressure not a problem. Hates Rheinlanders, loves all things German. I guess that’s how the Iron German Will works.
sure, but that iron german will was also his downfall that allowed him to ignore signs that the more superstitious were afraid of. Its also that german will that caused a mutiny that destroyed much of his supplies he later needed, to say nothing of his inevitable death rather than avoiding surrender. It was practically a round-about suicide.
@@nickmagrick7702 Allowing extremely valuable military hardware (with all the wartime secrets therein) fall into the hands of the enemy is an unpardonable act for any naval commander of the time. It is the callous manner with which he attacks the life-boats that precipitates the entire crew's inevitable demise; a cautionary tale.
Bravo! To Lovecraft (my man) for the story but also the video creator for this most excellent accomplishment. All of HPL deserves to be done in this manner.
The mentality was nothing new around and after ww1. The really bizarre thing is that lovecraft died before ww2 started so his depiction of how far the mindset would go is as coincidental as it is eerily prophetic.
@@changvasejarik62 well, those are two utterly different things. he is talking about Prussian and Rehinish mentality. it is surprising that the knew that. I highly doubt that this was commonly known anywhere so the point makes no sense. further, going from these two elements to fascist mentality is absurd. they have nothing in common. the Germans we see here are not fascists nor do they have something to do with it.
@@TheGoodCrusader ye, ive been on a bit of a Lovecraft kick lately so I can confirm this. There are several audio book / image narrated stories here on youtube.

me and my boyfriend really love your videos... the stories are great, as are the illustrations, and your voice makes for good background noise when were trying to sleep. in our opinion you deserve much more recognition.
The Temple is one of my favorite early Lovecraft stories, even though WW1 and WW2 U-Boats didn't actually have portholes for viewing outside of them, or underwater searchlights on them. All you need is a little suspension of disbelief on these points though. :-)
Suspension of disbelief* Did they even have wireless diving suits back in WW1? He's talking about his air generator and portable battery - seems scifi even by todays standards.
Here are some pictures inside ww1 german subs--Very claustrophobic www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=2&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=2ahUKEwixzp3ZqProAhXtQUEAHZVPC5gQFjABegQIDxAE&url=https%3A%2F%2Fmashable.com%2F2015%2F09%2F18%2Fgerman-u-boat%2F&usg=AOvVaw2Zp5v4f026hqZCwq4ces0E
even if the suit had a hose.. what is going to do, pinch it between a bunch of hatches? My great grandfather was a ww2 submariner and it wasnt a pretty job at all. 12 dudes in a room with 16 torpedoes because the gov was more concerned with space for weapons than space for people. only thing US submariners in ww2 got was the best food in the military. and sometimes and ice cream freezer.
That's two German U-boats that had the most remarkable and perilous journeys! The other one can be found in the pages of Edgar Rice Burroughs The Land That Time Forgot.
I think submarines make for a great horror location - small, inescapable, journeying through an environment so alien that it kills you within minutes, and one accident away from 'everybody drowns'. And of course, if you're an English speaking 20th century author in need a group of people who's gruesome death your audience will enjoy ...

I much prefer your vids to anything Hollywood has churned out over the years - Tanabe's line work is astounding and breathes new life into these old tales. The way he draws the incredulous eye...
Damn. How have I never heard of this Tanabe Gou guy? Everybody brings up Ito when they talk about Lovecraftian manga, but I've never heard them talk about this guy.
its nice how he wrote it from a German military perspective, describing all his own acts as superior and other nations unjustly hostile towards them, their liberators. Though the way he beat his men for freaking out, makes me wonder if im more out of the times or if there was more personal dislike of the germans. Though its pretty inarguable that during the world wars their tactics and treatment of people during war time was less than human not counting where their actions were completely geared for the strategic impact of war, and worse with the few ranks given freedom to commit any hanious pleasures. Still that seems to me be partly the nature of war rather than the culture of the germans. Either way I could imagine being trapped on a ship with a captain so cruel and paradoxically fearful of the things he can't control/understand.
@Max Schultz perhaps, there was a pretty strong anti-germen sentiment at the time, thanks to the world wars and all. People are always going to have some bias that are blind to them but reflect their time. It doesn't change the authenticity of the character nor does it talk about the effectiveness of using that kind of character to describe a order vs chaos analog. If he was simply trying to make a propaganda piece and that was his goal, don't you think he would have written more than one gernman centric story?
@Max Schultz I still don't see why you have a concern that he painted a hypothetical german in a bad light, especially since we have more than enough evidence to show those kinds of people did exist. Also are you saying this is unintentional propaganda, and it should be, idk, removed or something? I think im reading over something your saying and missing your point.

Bought this manga recently, "H.P. Lovecraft's The Hound and Other Stories" by Gou Tanabe. This story really gripped me & had me feeling claustrophobic. The artwork is superb!
This popped up in my recommended and I'm so glad it did. The voice work was fantastic, and the art was beautiful, reminded me of Commando comics. Subbed and going to listen to more!
Oh my goodness, this story. The reading is great, the illustrations are a luxury, the sound design is wonderfully subtle and effective. thank you so much for this! But my goodness, the constant "aharrrr, I'm a cynical merciless cruel arrogant German, jawoll!" - did Mr. Lovecraft write this after somebody German took the last piece of chocolate cake from the desert cart? I'm really having difficulties focusing on the story because it feels like that's just the vehicle for his stock German recital. Well, I'm feeling weirdly flattered that Germans now have their own place in the global community of _People H.P.Lovecraft Can't Stand_ .
Oh boy, I gotta listen to this again right now. I don't care about Lovecraft's "racism" he was one hell of a writer and I hate to say it but his xenophobia probably aided his ability to write horror stories
We disagree. We think his fear is what aided him most of all, and his racism left a few stains on his works. At the very least, he rejected his former racism late in life.
this was the first story to that of dagon after this is about the kid who got stuck out at sea and found himself awoken on a black untouched peice of sea floor which must of rosen miles from below to be at the surface and after days of walking he witnesses dagon jump out of a tar like lagoon and grasp onto a piller of unknown hight and let out a blood currdling scream
The mechanical portion of the ship that controlled the vertical escalation of it was said to have still been operable after the engine was damaged and technically never ceased to be operable. He had a way to escape the whole time. His will was not clad, his mind deceived itself.
Lovecraft was just an unreal genius. His knowledge of details of submarines, which was a brand new technology at the time, was just unbelievable. We take all of this information for granted now, but how the heck did Lovecraft find out about all of these inner workings of a German U-Boat? It would be like one of us accurately depicting the inner workings of a Space Shuttle or something like that.
Goddamn i never even thought about that. Some amazing points. I'm not too familiar with ww1 era submarines, but i wouldn't think they'd have portholes considering the depth? He was quite a homebody so i'd imagine he was fascinated with the concept and possibly had some correspondence with Germans or someone who had extensive knowledge on the subject. The other possibility is him ordering a book on submarines that was published at the time.
A river allways protects the back. In my home town from where i will not say is the temple from which i walked the very grounds for years. Always in awe and magnificent. I will say this there is not one or the temple but A temple. Just so happens to be the very one.

Thank you for putting it together like this with the pictures it’s the only way I seem to be able to understand anything at times……most times
Bought this manga recently, "H.P. Lovecraft's The Hound and Other Stories" by Gou Tanabe. This story really gripped me & had me feeling claustrophobic. The artwork is superb!
Right there with you
This popped up in my recommended and I'm so glad it did. The voice work was fantastic, and the art was beautiful, reminded me of Commando comics.
Subbed and going to listen to more!
this gives me serious Arthur Machen vibes
This version was good. I enjoyed the illustrations. Other Lovecraft stories were done by this kind person and were very good also
One of his best! Not too many adverbs or adjectives. It reminds me a bit of 2001. I've never seen this in any of his anthologies, that I can remember.
Oh my goodness, this story.
The reading is great, the illustrations are a luxury, the sound design is wonderfully subtle and effective. thank you so much for this!
But my goodness, the constant "aharrrr, I'm a cynical merciless cruel arrogant German, jawoll!" - did Mr. Lovecraft write this after somebody German took the last piece of chocolate cake from the desert cart?
I'm really having difficulties focusing on the story because it feels like that's just the vehicle for his stock German recital.
Well, I'm feeling weirdly flattered that Germans now have their own place in the global community of _People H.P.Lovecraft Can't Stand_ .
Imagine being this illiterate lmao
awesome hp lovecraft with illustraition 10 out 10
Excellent. thank you!
The illustrations are excellent - so too the narrator!
I'm responsible for like 30 of these views. So well made!
Oh boy, I gotta listen to this again right now.
I don't care about Lovecraft's "racism" he was one hell of a writer and I hate to say it but his xenophobia probably aided his ability to write horror stories
I totally agree as a german
We disagree. We think his fear is what aided him most of all, and his racism left a few stains on his works. At the very least, he rejected his former racism late in life.

My favorite story 😮
Does anyone know where that music sample comes from?
The one at the end? It's from a video game: Call of Cthulhu: DCotE - Credits
Came here to relisten to this banger after hearing about that sub that dissapeared near the titanic.
this was the first story to that of dagon after this is about the kid who got stuck out at sea and found himself awoken on a black untouched peice of sea floor which must of rosen miles from below to be at the surface and after days of walking he witnesses dagon jump out of a tar like lagoon and grasp onto a piller of unknown hight and let out a blood currdling scream
Brotherhood of steel? NCR is better.
Great Narration - well done.
Excellent. Thanks! - I never appreciated HP Lovecraft before.
very good drawing
amazing. well done
Love you're videos keep up the amazing work
Well done 👏👏👏
The mechanical portion of the ship that controlled the vertical escalation of it was said to have still been operable after the engine was damaged and technically never ceased to be operable. He had a way to escape the whole time. His will was not clad, his mind deceived itself.
Indeed, his mind did deceive him. Looking upon that small statue was the moment madness grabbed hold of his mind.
Lovecraft was just an unreal genius. His knowledge of details of submarines, which was a brand new technology at the time, was just unbelievable. We take all of this information for granted now, but how the heck did Lovecraft find out about all of these inner workings of a German U-Boat? It would be like one of us accurately depicting the inner workings of a Space Shuttle or something like that.
Goddamn i never even thought about that. Some amazing points. I'm not too familiar with ww1 era submarines, but i wouldn't think they'd have portholes considering the depth?
He was quite a homebody so i'd imagine he was fascinated with the concept and possibly had some correspondence with Germans or someone who had extensive knowledge on the subject.
The other possibility is him ordering a book on submarines that was published at the time.
@Coti thac_Rastic i think it was artistic liberty by tanabe
Amazing, thank you, wow.
Just a note: no Imperial German Navy officer would be carrying a Walther P.38 in 1917.
Good eye.
@@YaoEspirito It's still very well done. I was just nit picking.
And u-boats didn't have portholes or underwater search lights. But then again, this is also complete fiction so who cares
@@joaogomes9405 I was thinking that. Lets just say it's an alternate universe where technology evolved faster ;)
what did you use to have that voice effect its amazing!
The narrator has the ideal voice for this.
A river allways protects the back. In my home town from where i will not say is the temple from which i walked the very grounds for years. Always in awe and magnificent. I will say this there is not one or the temple but A temple. Just so happens to be the very one.
Quite a brilliant presentation I must say...
