Rêvenance: A Zine of Hauntings from Underground Histories. Issue 7

Rêvenance: A  Zine of Hauntings From Underground Histories is the flagship journal of the Revenant Editions series, dedicated to the forgotten or untold histories of 19th Century avant-garde and other countercultures. It includes essays, translations, and many experimental forms of historical writing and research that connect those traditions to continuing radical communities today.

Main themes in Issue #7: Racism in early Zine culture, Revenant Collaborations, Satanic Humour, Fun with Rhyming.

This issue boasts a healthy balance of living and dead collaborators, including splicings, re-workings, and transductions by Michael Dec and Jack Foley, and essays by Jim Leftwich and Michael Helsem;19th Century comi-satanic offerings by Dubus and Ramelet; poems by the neglected female poets Nina de Callias and Léocadie Penquer; poems by the Bohemian poets Fernand Clerget and Léon Valade; and a mini-feature on racism in early zine culture, reprinting a sickening white-supremecist diatribe by H.P. Lovecraft to furnish evidence against those who would defend him from charges of overt racism, countered by Callanann’s 1899 essay calling to de-segregate the first zine network.

The Dead: Nina de Callias, Léocadie Penquer, Fernand Clerget, Édouard Dubus, Charles Ramelet, Léon Valade, Éduard Manet, Dutheil, Vernon Gerald Callanann, Cyprien Godebsky, & H.P. Lovecraft
