Arthur Machen
Around 1890 Machen began to publish in literary magazines, writing stories influenced by the works of Robert Louis Stevenson, some of which used gothic or fantastic themes. This led to his first major success, "The Great God Pan". It was published in 1894 by John Lane in the noted Keynotes Series, which was part of the growing aesthetic movement of the time. Machen's story was widely denounced for its sexual and horrific content and consequently sold well, going into a second edition.
God and Texas
"God and Texas" has been published in several volumes. It was printed in full in the September, 1943 issue of "Theatre Arts Magazine". In 1944 it was collected in the volume "The Best One-Act Plays of 1943." In 2004 it was collected, with an introduction by Glenn Young, in the volume "Let Freedom Ring: 7 Patriotic Plays."
