Dirk Mosig correspondence (Ms.2018.005)

The Dirk Mosig Correspondence collects letters written to Dirk Mosig during the course of his research into the work of H.P. Lovecraft between the years of 1972 and 1979. The letters are mostly comprised of personal correspondence from fellow scholars of Lovecraft as well as writers and artists inspired by Lovecraft’s work. In addition there is a sizable collection of correspondence between Mosig and publishers of Lovecraft’s corpus and Lovecraft scholarship throughout the world. The collection also contains articles and publisher catalogs that were acquired by Mosig during the course of his research which compiled information about the languages into which Lovecraft’s work was being translated and those countries in which there was a vital community of scholarship on his work. Items are in English unless otherwise noted.
