DIALOGUE ABOUT MACHEN:
ATAVISM AND PANIC MYTHOPOIESIS
with Marco Maculotti (director of AXIS mundi)
"It follows that the psychogeographic aspect of the Machenian work - meaning by this term the deep, supernatural and sometimes mystical link that is created in his stories between the demon of the territory (Genius Loci) and the most intimate interiority of his characters -, is decidedly more relevant than the works of his colleagues and contemporaries: in the Machenian mythopoeia the territory is transmuted into a "landscape that clearly shatters the protagonist's ego [...] through contact with the Ancient as well as with the surreal and the supernatural ยปโ.
- Marco Maculotti, The Fair Ones, atavism and "protoplasmic regression": Arthur Machen's panic mythopoiesisin Beyond the Real, P. 118.
