So, in a sense Scooby Doo is an inversion of Lovecraft.

Yeah, in Lovecraft, an old man snoops around and discovers a group of pesky kids who he unmasks and discovers are monsters under their fake “human” costumes.

Enjoyed this lecture, August Derleth would be thrilled. I came to Lovecraft & others through the anthologies of Marvin Kaye. Very good books, indulge. Check them out on ebay.

Ah yes, the great soul singer Marvin Kaye. I love his songs “Shoggoth Healing” and “What’s Going On [Cthulhu is Waking Up]”

The content is so good in these discussions that it's disconcerting that the image doesn't match it in quality. Can't really make out the images and other materials that are projected on the screen, and the school room setting while maintaining the lecture tone, doesn't feature the speaker in the best light (no pun). I hate to criticize, but.... Maybe re-do these as a simple voice-over with decent quality images used to illustrate the various points and topics? This is an excellent series, very smart.

all his monsters are strictly material? I thought some were outside space time altogether or exist in dreamtime

Yes, Lovecraft’s girl monsters are material girls - like Madonna.

I've most often thought of Lovecraft as having something very much like a superiority complex, which may have been firmly inculcated from family from infancy. I suggest that this may be the reason he more or less refused to make requested editorial changes/fixes etc when he submitted his stories, kind of the "how dare you criticize my work?--I am after all an artiste"..Yet, I also have read that he didn't seem to think much of his work. I suppose it is possible that both mind-sets were at work, somewhat embattled, in his view of his submissions (even that word carries a certain dodgy cache)

Why Nyarlathotep seems so much more understandable than the other members of the Lovecraftian Pantheon? What's so special about this guy? Because it seems like it cares for humans (in a very destructive and malevolent way of course) but it doesn't seem as indifferent and detached as Yog-Sothoth or Cthulhu do. Ideas?
