12mo, two volumes: pp. [1-8] [1] 2-227 [228: ad]; [1-4] [1] 2-248, half titles present, contemporary three-quarter red calf and marbled boards, marbled endpapers, all edges speckled blue. First edition. "This Gothic has plenty of supernatural action but is encumbered by a plot which defies comprehension . When Jane Austen included THE NECROMANCER in her list of Gothic titles, she had in mind a prime example of the German Gothic at its most outrageous." - Barron (ed), Horror Literature 1-48. Regarded by Michael Sadleir as the most formless and incoherently plotted of the seven NORTHANGER titles, the work is now considered to be an inconsistent and incompetent translation of Kahlert's DER GEISTERBANNER (1792) which "was not a novel at all but an anthology of legends about the Black Forest. This thesis explains THE NECROMANCER's baffling structure, amorphous incident, and disintegrative story line. Sadleir's view, that 'THE NECROMANCER would naturally be what it is, a conglomerate of violent episodes thrown loosed together and not always achieving even a semblance of logical sequence' does not detract from what he calls the author's 'sheer stylistic fervour in the handling of the quasi-supernatural.' Even if the plot cannot be comprehended (and it cannot), the book abounds in stunning Gothic effects and Schauerromantik climaxes . When Jane Austen included THE NECROMANCER in her satiric reading list of approved Gothic titles, she no doubt did so deliberately to suggest the extremes in Teutonic absurdity among the various Gothic fashions and factions. But if the novel is an outrageous example of German absurdity, it is at the same time a splendid instance of the Schauerroman at a point of no rational return" (Frank, pp. 176-177). "One of the more interesting Gothic novels." - Bleiler, The Guide to Supernatural Fiction 1760. Bleiler, The Guide to Supernatural Fiction 1760. Blakey, The Minerva Press 1790-1820, p. 166.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - In the dark heart of Germany, a master of forbidden arts has returned from the grave. And he demands a price.A chilling cornerstone of the early Gothic movement, The Necromancer plunges the reader into a world of lurid superstition, decaying castles, and malevolent sorcery. Set amid the stormy shadows of the Black Forest, this novel is a dizzying, delirious series of interconnected tales, all centered on the enigmatic and terrifying figure of Volkert, the Necromancer.Through ghost-ridden inns, haunted ruins, and whispered narratives, the story follows a trail of supernatural violence, murder, and ghostly manifestations. Is Volkert truly a wizard back from the dead, controlling the fates of all who cross his path Or is he a cunning con-man whose elaborate frauds prove that the fear of the unknown is the most potent magic of all Beware the man who toys with the boundary of life and death.Famous for its intricate and bewildering plot, and as one of the infamous 'seven horrid novels' parodied in Jane Austen's Northanger Abbey The Necromancer delivers a spectacular feast of classic Schauerroman (shiver novel) thrills.Lose yourself in the most bizarre and compelling Gothic novel you've never read.…
