Friedrich Nietzsche has emerged as one of the most important and
influential modern philosophers. For several decades, the book
series Monographien und Texte zur Nietzsche-Forschung (MTNF) has
set the agenda in a rapidly growing and changing field of Nietzsche
scholarship. The scope of the series is interdisciplinary and
international in orientation reflects the entire spectrum of
research on Nietzsche, from philosophy to literary studies and
political theory. The series publishes monographs and edited
volumes that undergo a strict peer-review process. The book series
is led by an international team of editors, whose work represents
the full range of current Nietzsche scholarship.

"He struck a match to look at his watch. In the flare of the
light they saw a young woman just at Pitot's elbow -- a young woman
dressed all in black, with pale gold hair, and a baby sleeping on
her shoulder. She glided to the edge of the bridge and stepped
noiselessly off into the black waters." -- from Ghost Stories of
Old New Orleans
Ghosts are said to wander along the rooftops above New Orleans'
Royal Street, the dead allegedly sing sacred songs in St. Louis
Cathedral, and the graveyard tomb of a wealthy madam reportedly
glows bright red at night. Local lore about such supernatural
sightings, as curated by Jeanne deLavigne in her classic Ghost
Stories of Old New Orleans, finds the phantoms of bitter lovers,
vengeful slaves, and menacing gypsies haunting nearly every corner
of the city, from the streets of the French Quarter to Garden
District mansions. Originally printed in 1944, all forty ghost
stories and the macabre etchings of New Orleans artist Charles
Richards appear in this new edition.
Drawing largely on popular legend dating back to the 1800s,
deLavigne provides vivid details of old New Orleans with a cast of
spirits that represent the ethnic m?lange of the city set amid
period homes, historic neighborhoods, and forgotten taverns.
Combining folklore, newspaper accounts, and deLavigne's own voice,
these phantasmal tales range from the tragic -- brothers, lost at
sea as children, haunt a chapel on Thomas Street in search of their
mother -- to graphic depictions of torture, mutilation, and
death.
Folklorist and foreword contributor Frank de Caro places the
writer and her work in context for modern readers. He uncovers new
information about deLavigne's life and describes her book's
pervasive lingering influence on the Crescent City's culture
today.
