Issue 7 of the Chronicles of Here and There focuses on ghostly ghosts. In the shadow of posterity, a multitude of forgotten works exist, drawing a fluctuating map of literary history. What was is no more, and returns. Is there a "principle" of the ghosting of books (and beings)? The ghostly or the revenant bears witness to a trace, whether mental or physical: the search for a character reconstructed by words, an investigation into the toponymy of a capital revealing another submerged city, the story of an organization hoping to capture Eastern wisdom... The Chronicles of Here and There mix text and image, photographs and drawings, approaching that part of the inexpressible and the unspeakable that, for short, we call ghostly.
