摘要

本文旨在分析所谓的 "克苏鲁神话 "的各种形式,并描述当代文化对 H.P. 洛夫克拉夫特遗产的接受和反思的具体变化。本文开篇部分介绍了 H.P. 洛夫克拉夫特作为怪异小说、宇宙恐怖小说和宇宙哲学的作者,并纠正了关于 "克苏鲁神话 "的常见误解。然后,解释了三个版本的《克苏鲁神话》的符号学版本,并对所有三个版本作了进一步分析。神话的 1.0 版本包括洛夫克拉夫特的遗产、洛夫克拉夫特圈子作家的作品,也包括奥古斯特-德勒斯对宇宙恐怖的诠释,以及洛夫克拉夫特去世后出现的或由德勒斯发现和引导的新一代作家的作品。这是一套复杂的术语、思想、哲学、情节设置和叙事规范,正如进一步解释的那样,被错误地解释为虚构的神话。2.0 版包括所有以 "洛夫克拉夫特式 "或 "宇宙式 "恐怖为标签创作的作品、所有跨媒体改编作品、受其影响的作品以及流行文化作品,在这些作品中都可以追溯到原始神话的影响,并明确承认或只是暗示。最后,《克苏鲁神话 3.0》是《神话》的一个版本,它承认之前版本的存在,但通过一个特定的自我反思、自我批判的视角来看待它们,更注重于对之前版本的互文性发挥和元注释,而不是扩展它们。

Cthulhu Mythos: History of H.P. Lovecraft’s Monstrous Presence in Popular Culture
The aim of this paper is to analyse various forms of the so-called Cthulhu Mythos and describe specific shifts in reception and reflexion of H.P. Lovecraft’s legacy in contemporary culture. The opening part of the paper introduces H.P. Lovecraft as the author of weird fiction, cosmic horror and the philosophy of cosmicism, and corrects common misconceptions regarding the Cthulhu Mythos. Then, the semiotic versioning of three versions of the Cthulhu Mythos is explained and all three versions are further analysed. Version 1.0 of the Mythos includes Lovecraft’s legacy, works of the authors from the Lovecraft Circle, but also August Derleth’s interpretations of cosmic horror and works of the next generation of authors that emerged after Lovecraft’s death or were discovered and guided by Derleth. It’s a complex set of terminology, ideas, philosophies, plot devices and narratological specifications that is, as is further explained, wrongly interpreted as a fictional mythology. Version 2.0 includes all the works created under the label of ‘Lovecraftian’ or ‘cosmic’ horror, all transmedia adaptations, influences, and pop cultural additions where the influence of the original Mythos can be traced and is either explicitly admitted or just implied. Finally, Cthulhu Mythos 3.0 is a version of the Mythos that acknowledges the existence of the previous versions, yet approaches them through a specific self-reflective, self-critical lens and is more focused on intertextual play and metacommentaries on these previous versions than on expanding them.
