Timothy S. Murphy is an influential figure in the study of weird fiction, particularly focusing on the works of William Hope Hodgson. His scholarship has been pivotal in exploring the nuances and themes present in Hodgson's writing, which often delves into the supernatural and the psychological. Murphy's analysis sheds light on how Hodgson's narratives have shaped the genre and have influenced subsequent authors and literary movements.
