Joseph Altairac (25 March 1957 – 9 November 2020) was a French literary critic and essayist.[1][2]
Career
He specialized in science fiction literature and served as secretary of the Prix Rosny-Aîné. His articles and works were largely dedicated to A. E. van Vogt, H. P. Lovecraft, and H. G. Wells.[3] He also studied subterranean fiction and the history of science fiction in France.
During the 1990s, Altairac published the journal Études lovecraftiennes, a French language equivalent of the American Lovecraft Studies, which led him to direct the "Cahiers d'études lovecraftiennes" at Éditions Encrage.[4]
