Contributor Bio:  Le Fanu, Joseph Sheridan Comme plusieurs de ses compatriotes ecrivains, Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu n'est connu en France que pour un seul de ses romans: "Carmilla", roman gothique flamboyant. Etudiant en droit a Trinity College de 1833 a 1837, Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu est appele au barreau irlandais deux ans plus tard, mais il n'y exercera jamais. Il rejoint l'equipe du "Dublin University Magazine" en 1837 et debute sa carriere comme journaliste. En 1843, il epouse Susanna Bennett dont le deces, dix ans plus tard, le plonge dans la depression. Vivant reclus, il se lance alors a corps perdu dans l'ecriture de ses histoires d'horreur, a tel point que sa timidite et son mode de vie nocturne lui valent le surnom de Prince Invisible. Il disparait le 7 fevrier 1873. J. Sheridan Le Fanu est l'un des ecrivains les plus populaires de l'ere victorienne: il s'impose comme le maitre des histoires de fantomes et du roman gothique avec "Oncle Silas" (1864, Corti, 1997), "Comment ma cousine a ete assassinee" (Mille et une nuits, 2002) et "Carmilla" (1872, Zulma, 2005).
