Ligotti references - help needed

I'm unsure as to where in the forum I should post this, but here goes.

I'm writing on my BA thesis in Literature, the subject being Thomas Ligotti.

I've collected a lot of secondary texts, been buying books, etc. However, I need the following two pieces from The Nightmare Factory, which I simply cannot afford to buy at the moment:

"Foreword" by Poppy Z. Brite;
"Introduction: The Consolations of Horror";

Does anyone have access to online copies of these? Or anyone who can scan or xerox them and mail them to me?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you.
 
Give me your info and I'll get them to you, as long as you let me read the piece when it's done.

Deal?

Private Messages have been sent out, thanks a lot to both of you.

The thesis will be written in Danish, hopefully I'll turn it in on the 15th of May, though lazyness and a tendency to write too much may postpone it (never ever write a thesis about an author whose work you really appreciate, seems to be the lesson learned here).

If it's any good, and I'm somewhat satisfied with it, I may try to translate it into English in my spare time and publish it here.

Thanks again.
 
I was busy scanning and converting the text to PDF while the replies were being posted. Sending over now. The ideal hope would be that the thesis is shared on TLO, of course!

Thanks a lot, Dr. Bantham.

It's a huge help, and I much appreciate it!

I hope to have the thesis posted here as well (I'd assume the copyright would still be mine). Nevertheless, my academic vanity might be a hindrance, if a bad grading is given. It probably won't be a hindrance for doing a somewhat lousy job on the thesis due to laziness, but it might prevent the publication.
So, it depends a lot on whether I'm satisfied, and on the grading. And my translation skill.

But I hope to post it here.


About secondary texts about Ligotti - the only ones I've come across are the ones in TLR (and the ones from Dagon, mentioned, but not included, in TLR), and the ones from Studies in Modern Horror Journal 2+4.

Has anyone encountered any other?
