The Necronomicon (Repost)

Description

"The authenticity of the Necronomicon is still an open question. As I cannot claim expertise in the ancient occult grimmoire, I can't really judge the authenticity of the work. I will say that the book is intriguing enough for me to have read some 20 years ago, and then have my interest in it re-awakened after broad reading in Western Ceremonial Magick, Crowley, Golden Dawn, John Dee Enochian, Buddhism, Tibetan Buddhism, and Zen, not to mention background heavy metal, Metallica, various Black Metal bands, and the Lovecraft and R.H. Howard works. Whether a well constructed hoax, a popularized artifact, or the genuine article, the Necronomicon is indeed among the black foundation stones of the darker side of popular culture, and should be read even if for background and familiarity." - reader's review.



The Necronomicon is a fictional book appearing in the stories by horror novelist H. P. Lovecraft. It was first mentioned in Lovecraft's 1924 short story "The Hound",[1] written in 1922, though its purported author, the "Mad Arab" Abdul Alhazred, had been quoted a year earlier in Lovecraft's "The Nameless City".[2] Among other things, the work contains an account of the Old Ones, their history, and the means for summoning them.

Other authors such as August Derleth and Clark Ashton Smith also cited it in their works; Lovecraft approved, believing such common allusions built up "a background of evil verisimilitude." Many readers have believed it to be a real work, with booksellers and librarians receiving many requests for it; pranksters have listed it in rare book catalogues, and a student smuggled a card for it into the Yale University Library's card catalog.[3]

Capitalizing on the notoriety of the fictional volume, real-life publishers have printed many books entitled Necronomicon since Lovecraft's death.
