Randolph Carter is a recurring fictional character in H. P. Lovecraft's fiction and is, presumably, an alter ego of Lovecraft himself. The character first appears in "The Statement of Randolph Carter", a short story Lovecraft wrote in 1919 based on one of his dreams. An American magazine called ''The Vagrant'' published the story in May 1920. Carter shares many of Lovecraft's personal traits: He is an uncelebrated author, whose writings are seldom noticed. A melancholy figure, Carter is a quiet contemplative dreamer with a sensitive disposition, prone to fainting during times of emotional stress. But he can also be courageous, with enough strength of mind and character to face and foil the horrific creatures of the Dreamlands (see also Lovecraft's Dream Cycle). ==Stories== In Lovecraft's writings, Carter appears or is mentioned in the following tales (in timeline order): * "The Statement of Randolph Carter" (1919) * "The Unnamable" (1923) * ''The Dream-Quest of Unknown Kadath'' (1926-1927) * "The Silver Key" (1926) * ''The Case of Charles Dexter Ward'' (1927) * "Through the Gates of the Silver Key" (1933) * "Out of the Aeons" (1933) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Randolph Carter」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
