M·R·詹姆斯

维基百科,自由的百科全书

蒙塔格·罗德斯·詹姆斯 OM FBA(英語:Montague Rhodes James,1862年8月1日—1936年6月12日)是一位英国作家、中世纪学者,剑桥大学国王学院(1905-1918)和伊顿学院(1918-1936)院长,也是剑桥大学的校长(1913-15)。

詹姆斯作为中世纪学者的工作受到高度重视,[1]但最令人难忘的是他的鬼故事,有些人认为他的作品是该类型的最佳。他为新世纪重新定义了鬼故事,放弃了许多前辈的哥特式陈词滥调,使用了更现实的当代背景。然而,他的主人公和情节往往反映了他自己的尚古兴趣,包含古文書、歴史遺物、史跡等元素。[2]因此,他被称为 "尚古鬼故事"的鼻祖。[3]
