Histoires Ténébreuses by Victor Joly, here translated
as The Unknown Collaborator and Other Legendary Tales, was first
published in Brussels by Auguste Schnee & Co. in 1857. It collects
three novellas and a short story, all affiliated, albeit a trifle belatedly
and more than a little ironically, to the Romantic Movements of France
and Germany, fusing the two influences in a fashion that only a Belgian
writer was likely to attempt, and thus producing a hybrid whose distinctiveness
is particularly obvious in the first two stories in the collection, each
of which makes a significant contribution to the rich tradition of Romantic
satanic fantasies.
