C.S. SCRIBLERIUS

The writer (also known as the writer without face for their fans) is the author of the controverted manuscript Percyfaw Code , of 2007 that it constitutes a secret dossier of the magician Magister MaskMelin, a magician spy disappeared in the beginning of the Second War is seemingly up to now an alterego of Scriblerius, and a way of hiding his real identity ignored. Some believe, that that name is a pseudonym of several other authors and due to approached theme if it speculates that can be the known author Thomas Pynchon or even John Twelve Hawks.

However, differently of John Twelve Hawks that never met his editor and communicates through the internet and a cellular one for satellite, the reclusive and obscure writer C.S. Scriblerius, his second agent in the attempt of disqualifying some speculations, affirms that on the obscure writer Scriblerius, the same is less sophisticated and rarely uses the internet or much less telephone, and to the that seems shoots in teasing tone: their messages are brought by a "crow as carrier pigeon ".True or no, maybe this statement is just an allegorical reference his alterego, the magician Magister MaskMelin, that uses that file as middle of communication, like this, maintaining his whereabouts and ignored hiding place.

All of the biographical information about his experience base on the following sources:

• From of 2006 in Wikipedia, Magicpedia and other Wiki for the world;

• From 2007 in Metapedia in English and Portuguese;

• From 2007 in Wikilusa;

• Several Blogs on the character Magister MaskMelin and C.S. Scriblerius;

• In 2008 the name MaskMelin reaches thousands of points in the searcher Google.

As for his initial biography in some site, are just restricted the a line: "Obscure C.S. Scriblerius, a writer without face. In some moment in 2007, that line disappeared and it was substituted by "C.S. Scriblerius is the author of the E-book Percyfaw Code of noisy success in the web."

The information to proceed come from few published sources, and in his majority arrivals of the internet. To the that seems and based on the interviews of his agent to a site that says: "he doesn't have plans to go to public", and regarding his/her identity, it completes: "He lives somewhere in Brazil, reclusive, but, as a normal man under the sun of some beach, and, living in front of a pond, because as the Celtic ones, he believes in the powers magician that you hide inside of their waters."

==Secret dossier==

Like this, Scriblerius as all those controverted authors that become true "characters" in the market editorial, after they throw their works becoming withdrawn, reclusive and hiding in the shadows, and being many, just known by their literary agents and commercial representatives.Certainly, one of those cases was due to the unexpected success of the "Percyfaw Code" that circulates for the web translated in a series of texts, goods, encyclopedic entries and several copied hoax of part of the e-book published by IntercontinentalPress, a recognized negotiates international representing famous authors and the most traditional comics of the world.Due to this made available virtual strategy the content of the text for certain time in hisr site, got the public's attention for C.S. Scriblerius, that as writer very a little is known, maybe, due to the implications of the theme described in the reproduction of this manuscript prefaced by the stranger author.The content of "Percyfaw Code" , is it a type of the magician's spy Magister MaskMelin secret dossier[http://www.molinu.org/the_magician_maskmelin?PHPSESSID=0ec54375ea173093a2769a641530b62d] .The controverted mysterious illustration disappeared in the beginning of the Second War and that turned into half biographical character, half ficcional, a true hoax that has their slopes in sites, blogs and several wikis and searchers of researches of the virtual universe.Inside of this conception where the fiction and the reality are mixed, this dossier is found in an old covered in dust trunk, now with the magician's logo Maskmelin, but according to their writings, it belonged to the English magician of the age elisabetana, the famous magician and mathematical John Dee[http://www.johndee.org/], rapturous for the magician in the decade of thirty in an auction in London.

Many years after the magician's disappearance MaskMelin, as he writes the obscure author Scriblerius, then, when opening up the trunk, is discovered in an occult compartment several objects of magic, as a game board, old books, pictures, poster, some manuscripts and an especially call of "Percyfaw Code" , that he told some mysteries on the search of Graal and of lost kingdoms, revelations on one negotiate hides denominated "The Seven Circle", secret missions at that of the Second War time close to figures criptografadas for they be deciphered.

The magician's found manuscript, in spite of having his questioned authenticity and their originals never presented by the reclusive author, when prefacing and to authorize hisr popularization it turned success for the world net of computers, and his content serves as motto for a saga of characteristics multimedia, tends as basic media presented in a strategy marketing by their commercial agents in the field editorial. In the first book of the series to be thrown, "Magic Mysterious Travel" author C.S Scriblerius, second information published by his publisher, once again it is used of an alterego, a youth writer and comics illustrator, the main character's older brother published many years ago in cartoons that served as model for their creations.The main character of the series is the youth Ivan Templer, of login id, Brain Kid [http://en.metapedia.org/wiki/Hacker-Brain_Kid] a nickname known by a select group in the internet, just used when necessary and that he/she also appears in the searchers of research of the internet among true hackers, being considered a new "Phiber Optik"[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_Abene], and a boy prodigy and the hackers' genius and teenleader of New Legion of Doom [NLOD] [http://www.pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legion_of_Doom] .
== Models and Literary Inspirations==

The incognito and obscure author Scriblerius, this way are convinced of having found his model in the altar of the great literary art, to the it develops a style with unpublished virtual unfoldings, real characters and whose fabled and thematic base same being differentiated, it is inspired strongly in three British writers and an American.The first of them, Anglo-Irish Jonathan Swift (1667 .1745) [http://www.en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jonathan_Swift] , enigmatic writer of the famous ones " Gulliver Travel’s " , mysterious writer and some of Scriblerus Club founders[http://www.britannica.com/EBchecked/topic/529970/Scriblerus-Club ] .O other English no less famous he is John Ronald Reuel Tolkien (1892 - 1973), [http://www.pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/J._R._R._Tolkien] considered by many as the best writer of fantasy of all of the times, where they stand out folkloric present researches in their books as the "The Lord of the Rings" ; the third party the current writer J.K. Rowling, [http://www.jkrowling.com/] author of the series "Harry Porter", an international phenomenon, and finally, the American Dan Brown, [http://www.danbrown.com/.] that presents an enormous amount of information based also in historical researches, in the book bestseller "The Davince Code " , that just serves of example of success formula.All, however a dividing mark in the market editorial, getting to take millions of readers to read their books, and like this, to open roads and doors for many other authors.
== The Future of the Literature==

In spite of a writer antenado with the future of the literature, with the popularization through the web of the reproduction of the manuscript "Percyfaw Code" , of yours controverted alter ego, the missing person magic spy Maskmelin, C.S.Scriblerius, returns to the classic literary universe and of the past also if it turns a character virtual "Scriblerian."Martinus Scriblerus, was a name used as several famous and reclusive writers' pseudonym that formed a club denominated literary Scriblerus club [http://www.britannica.com/EBchecked/topic/529970/Scriblerus-Club] . The group of "Scriblerian" was founded in 1712, and it lasted until the death of the founders, with beginning in 1732 and that it finishes in 1745, with Alexander Pope [http://www.britannica.com/EBchecked/topic/470015/Alexander-Pope] and Jonathan Swift, being culturally the most prominent authors. Robert Harley, 1st Earl of Oxford and Mortimer occasionally adhered to the club for the meetings, although he is not known by having contributed to any one of their literary works. The club began as a project of satirizing the learning abuses where they can be found, what took the Martinus Scriblerus's" memoirs [http://www.britannica.com/EBchecked/topic/374434/Memoirs-of-Martinus-Scriblerus] . The second edition of Pope "Dunciad" it also contains attributed works Martinus Scriblerus. Richard Owen Cambridge wrote an epic poem, "Scribleriad", where the hero is Martinus Scriblerus.To the that seems, the name "Scriberius" has of some form origins inside of that context and it follows the mysterious road of that group and that author's adventures the steps of Swift and his alter ego famous Lemuel Gulliver.
== Who was Martinus Scriblerus?==

The name Martinus Scriblerus, is a Latin artificial form. Literal translation of the name Martin means "of Mars." The translation of Scriblerus, starting from imitation Latin, means low escriba, clerk, or writer, "hack." Of the combination of the two words, the meaning was "a writer of Mars." In the Scriblerian activity, there is no reference to notable excepção Swift Mars, an equal discussion of the satellite Martians, that you appeared later in Gulliver's Travels. Therefore, Martinus Scriblerus should refer that the author of the report, was actually Jonathan Swift. Like this, we can see like Swift destined starting from the beginning of the formation of the Club of centering his actividade around his/her personal experience. Besides, he must have convinced the two prominent taxpayers, writers Pope and Arbuthnot, of that need.The initial intention of the club was to have Martin Scriblerus as hero of "Travels"[http://www.britannica.com/EBchecked/topic/249243/Gullivers-Travels]. However, in some day after the formal rupture of the group, maybe during his creation, Swift chose the name Lemuel Gulliver. He also altered the context, and he/she might have given the sense to the name Martinus Scriblerus. It was also narrowly associated with his discussion of the Martian satellites, at that time a revelation that would cause an intense controversy, since the astronomical discovery was still object of pure speculation, and because of that concern it used pseudonym for his personal safety. However, seemingly he felt the need to do this connection known through the memoirs, since later with visits Pope, integral of Scriblerus Club it relighted the publication. The reason for his decision should continue to be ignored, we can only speculate on the effects of the change of Scriblerus, for Gulliver. Maybe, Swift decided that "Memoirs" was sufficiently distant of his/her personnel writing, and that few would have the capacity to understand his revelation. Surprisingly, "Travels" frequently have been causing so much readers and critical to identify Swift with his character Gulliver. Partly some of the history has mention of the name Gulliver; Swift always uses the first person, and to retake the declarations in the beginning of each chapter always refers to the "author." Gulliver's name just appears in the title page, in a letter of the publisher for the reader ostensivamente written by a cousin, Richard Sympson and, in a letter of Captain Gulliver for his cousin Sympson.
== The Ghost Writer and Alter egos==

Then, inside of this context and just as Jonathan Swift, with his Lemuel Gulliver in the past and at the present time like Philip Roth [http://www.en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philip_Roth] in "The Ghost Writer" , commenting on the adventures of his alter ego Nathan Zuckerman, a youth convinced author of having found his/her model in the reclusive writer in the illustration of E.I. Lonoff, [http://www.en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exit_Ghost] that lived a quiet life in Berkshire, far away from the amusements of the literary world, Scriblerius develops his writer mystic almost that similar to the of the romance of Roth .Maybe, as in the adventures of his more acquaintance alter ego, the missing person magic spy doublé, Magister MaskMelin, [http://www.freewebs.com/jesssupernatural33/texts.htm] the author walks in the thematic universe of the also reclusive writer and sinister H.P Lovecraft, and as CM Eddy, Jr.parceiro and friend of Lovecraft, he walks in search of supernatural facts in the swamps and it dives of head in the waters gray and deep of the lake of the quiet city of Providence.

The writing H.P. Lovecraft[http://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/H._P._Lovecraft], besides also it is confused as one of the "occult agents" recruited by the magician spy doublé .Os "occult mysterious agents" Magick Lantern agents or Lanterns, known like this, for they win a ring with a stone that was fluorescent and it was used as a flashlight in the darkness.The "Flashlights", according to reports described in reproduced him dossier "Percyfaw Code", they were initiate virtuous anonyms as any one of us or personalities as the adventurer Percy Fawcett[http://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Percy_Fawcett], the spymaster William Melville [http://www.nationmaster.com/encyclopedia/William-Melville ] (then Peter Fleming or his/her brother Ian creative Fleming of James Bond) [http://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ian_Fleming] , scientist Nicola Tesla, the magician Harry Houdini [http://en.metapedia.org/wiki/Harry_Houdini] (later writers H.P. Lovecraft or Walter B. Creative Gibson of The Shadow) [http://en.metapedia.org/wiki/Agents_Secrets] , radio announcer Orson[http://en.metapedia.org/wiki/MASKMELIN_and_Orson_Welles], the magician Jasper Maskelyne[http://en.metapedia.org/wiki/Jasper_Maskelyne], writer Fernando Pessoa [http://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fernando_Pessoa] (then the astrologer Louis De Wohl) [http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-news/revealed-how-mi5-recruited-an-astrologer-in-plot-to-outwit-hitler-790876.html ] and the wizard Cecil Hugh Williamson [http://en.metapedia.org/wiki/Cecil_Hugh_Williamson] among others.

Every day the truthfulness of the information of the content of the manuscript dossier is largely confirmed, be for new revelations thrown by searching specialists or through the files you tell in confidence of the registrations MI5[http://www.mi5.gov.uk./ ], published under the freedom of the action of the information as official documents open to the great public for law force through the files available secret online.
== Following Writer B. Traven==

Like this, due to the information published extracted of the secret service, [http://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/recordsmanagement/selection/pdf/osp8.pdf] you negotiate of intelligences, occult organizations and the esoteric theme that involves the such manuscript and it permeates his work, C.S Scriblerius, follows the same steps of B. Traven (Chicago 1890 -? 1969) novelist and American novelist, that is one of the most mysterious writers of the century XX .Traven did of his Mexico home (as it is believed that Scriblerius has done of Brazil) country, protecting his Real identity, whose larger work is the romance tightly Sierra Nun's" Treasury , taken to the movies by Director John Huston [http://www.en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Huston ] (Nevada, Missouri 1906. Middletown, Rodhe Island 1987) B. Traven, [http://www.en.wikipedia.org/wiki/B._Traven] besides, he was Albert Einstein's favorite author. The Nazi bonfires be feed with the books of B. Traven. The two soap operas that are part of the book don't flee to the author's Utopian style that speaks about adventurers and remote places, tends as backdrop the Mexican jungle. In "The Night Visitor" , I count that gives title to the book, a man typically city dweller moves for the boundaries of the Mexican jungle, tends contact, just, with a reclusive amateur anthropologist there are several years.Themes also in a certain way approached with inclination of "fantastic realism" presented by C.S.Scriblerius, in the development of the initiate saga for the character Ivan Templer, in a series of stories for a public that admires adventures, mysteries, magic, missions and to unmask secret codes, and that for that reason took him to be a writer considered reclusive and mysterious for some.
== A Mirror and Model of Many Writers==

Also, certainly inside of this model "scriblerian" that took to contemplate in the mirror of many other writers, Scriblerius proceeds in a certain way the American Jerome David "J. D." Salinger [http://www.en.wikipedia.org/wiki/B._Traven] , an author of reclusive and mysterious behavior and he has in the book his great success and the ones that are proceeded: "Nine Histories" (Sing to sleep Stories), of 1953, a picked of nine stories published in the magazine New Yorker between 1948 and 1953; "Franny & Zooey" , of 1961, that it consists of two short soap operas, "Franny" and "Zooey" ; and "Carpenters, Get up Very High the Ridge and Seymour, an Introduction" , of 1963, that also gathers two soap operas of Salinger.These three books have histories in that you are main characters the Família Glass, constituted by Buddy (species of the writer's alter-ego as Nathan Zuckerman of Roth, and the youth's Ivan Templer oldest brother for Scriblerius), Seymour, Boo Boo, Franny and Zooey Glass, all siblings. His last published work, an entitled soap opera "Hapworth 16, 1924" , he appeared in New Yorker on June 19, 1965. After that, Salinger continued reclusive, appearing esporadicamente in the Press, and we can speculate in a certain way that the behavior of Scriblerius is very close of Salinger and of other authors considered reclusive for the media.
== Seating beside Cormac McCarthy==

C.S. Scriblerius as Cormac McCarthy [http://www.cormacmccarthy.com/Biography.htm] they are authors that you would not recognize if it was seating beside one of them, because, they are also considered as authors reclusive, lonely and mysterious.Different from Scriblerius, that had as theme in yours Percyfaw Code , the beginning of the Second War, increased McCarthy in his work more recent book The Road that has place in a postwar atmosphere in that a father and son struggle to survive in a lonely landscape. One of McCarthy's most famous works is All the Pretty Horses .Talvez, for that the author the obvious heir is considered for the writer, William Faulkner, being today one of the writers more celebrated by the specialized critic.However and in spite of everything, Scriblerius and McCarthy sit down in the same bank and he stays with a withdrawn behavior in relation to media.
== The Circus of the Great Media==

Authors of the form as McCarthy author also of "Old Men", Thomas Pynchon, of "Gravity's Rainbow" [http://www.en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_Pynchon] , and JD Salinger [http://www.en.wikipedia.org/wiki/J._D._Salinger ] , , where word "hides" is known already, because along decades in author's "Jerome David Salinger" life, that he decided a 1965, in the peak of his fame as writer, to maintain forever his private life far away from the media. Ever since, it is believed that everyday in the solitude it continues the saga of the family Glass in manuscripts kept in a safe drawer in his own house. However, these known authors can be famous enough to resist to the pressure of their editors to join to the great mounted circus of the media. A "circus" that seemingly some writers considered ignored, like own same Scriblerius knowing that are going in the against-hand to popularization of their works are contrary to appear in this “editorial circus”.
== The Mysterious Man Without Face==

Then among a number every time larger of authors than they walk in the shadows detached obscure C.S. Scriblerius, that one believe is a pseudonym as of John Twelve Hawks[http://www.randomhouse.com/features/johntwelvehawks/]. The mysterious man without face announces his production as a writer that nobody saw and whose identity is the subject starting from their writings pages. Everything that is known about those authors and their works as "Percyfaw Code ", of C.S. Scriblerius, made available by limited time as e-book in an apparent strategy of marketing of enormous success in the web and "The Traveler ", of Twelve Hawks published amid the style of Hollywood hype where disembarked in the list bestseller of the newspaper The New Times.In spite of mysterious to Thomas Pynchon's same style, Philip Roth, JD Salinger, B.Traven, Cormac McCarthy, authors C.S. Scriblerius and Twelve Hawks in fact "live out of the grating", meaning that you chose roads no so conventional in the market editorial, using other means for popularization of their works, and like this, hindering of they be tracked.
== The Death sentence==

Other of those writers also labeled as reclusive writer he is Thomas Pynchon [http://www.en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_Pynchon], when the author published in 1990 his romance "Vineland" , the editors of literary supplements greeted his turn effusively seemingly of a voluntary exile.Seventeen years ago that the public and the critic of the USA waited the author's "next romance" of "Gravity's Rainbow", a monumental and impressive book, that many said to be the largest American romance of the century XX. Then, soon the newspaper The New Times hurried to order a review of the book, to the most reclusive of all of the writers: the Indian Salman Rushdie, [http://www.en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salman_Rushdie] author of the famous and controversial The "Satanic Verses" , that it provoked enormous confusion in the Muslim world, doing with that the ayatollahs from Iran threw against Rushdie a "fatwa", or death sentence, happily until the moment still no executed.

Taking advantage at that time what was happening with Rushdie, the subtileness and the irony involved the publication of that review, and a certain dose of commercial opportunism in the fact in itself for the famous newspaper, since a reclusive writer without option would be commenting on the work of other for option. The death sentence uttered by the ayatollahs, in February of 1989, he did with that Rushdie had to disappear of the map and to turn a reclusive writer against the own will.Kept by British (he is British citizen, born in India) policemen, Rushdie was always changing of apartment every week, isolated of the family and of the friends, hostage of the rage murders moved by the religious fanaticism or for the appetizing prize of a million dollars promised by Iran to who in a revenge action and attitude of faith removed his profane life. During one decade prisoner lived of himself and their ideas. The threats to the "profane writer", if they also extended all that somehow did part of his work.His translator of the book in Japan was murdered, and there were attempts against the Norwegian editor's lives and of the translators in Italy and in Turkey.
== The Cases of Rushdie and Pynchon==

However, independent to these facts that surrounded the world editorial, what happened C.S. Scriblerius and Thomas Pynchon are another history.While Pynchon has a known biography, he was born in 1937, he studied in the University of Cornell, he worked at Boeing Corporation offices, and after it began to publish their immense and complex romances, suddenly simply, "without text in a blank page", it disappeared disappearing of the map. They only know each other two or three pictures of him, even so, of when he was a youth student.He believed that still lives in New York. But, the press doesn't get to locate him, his name doesn't consist in any catalog. Maybe, for that no reporter still got to interview him nor that is for the telephone.All of the contacts are made through their agents, as almost all of the writers that he has been administering their careers for those professionals.The author is extremely zealous in the protection of his private life, he doesn't want to be seen involved with blockade and badalações midiáticas, common to writers without talent with egos the search of spotlights, and to suffer because of his work, persecutions or even for in his risk life.Maybe, be for that concerned with the approached theme and the implications of his work that author Scriblerius, chooses for the same way of Pynchon to drive hisr work and have in those reclusive and mysterious authors his model to drive his professional career, and be, for that for some confused as a "scriberian" of the current days.

This way, the cases of Rushdie and Pynchon, doesn't differ of the obscure author Scriblerius that you demonstrate as in a detective story that dangerous relationships, permeate and it also puts in risk a writer's life.Therefore, it is not any exaggeration if he speaks that many writers that take refuge, if encastelando in an ivory tower, but cases exist in that the ivory tower is the only safe place from where the world is spied entirely. To be reclusive has insipidities and problems in the marketing editorial, in a scenery in that the writers need to show as a "showriter", where his work has importance less and less in the village of the global world in that the is half the own message, and the book becomes a mere consumption "product."However, to be reclusive also has their advantages: the possibility to flee of the "social commitment", of the cocktails, of the interviews without purpose or substance, of the thousands of commitments that impede a writer of really to do what likes: to write.

	Mais recentemente, as marcas e a tradição de Sumé foram interpretadas, de maneira superficialmente mais racionalista, como evidência da presença de exploradores europeus ou fenícios em tempos pré-colombianos, ou do uso por Tomé de antigos conhecimentos fenicios para chegar às Américas. O austríaco Schwennhagen, por exemplo, estudou o [[Pé de Deus e Pé do Diabo\|"Pé de Deus"]] encontrado em Oeiras, por volta de 1927 e escreveu: “Mesmo sinal existe em Oeiras, no Piauí, e o povo sempre venerou esse sinal, desde a antiguidade. A forma do pé, gravada numa chapa de pedra, é uma placa comemorativa, usada pelos povos antigos para indicar que naquele lugar esteve um homem, que foi um benfeitor do povo. A travessia de São Tomé pelo Atlântico nada tem de milagrosa. Naquela época a população das Canárias e das ilhas do Cabo Verde tinham ainda bons conhecimentos do Brasil e o zeloso apóstolo procurou uma caravela para ir com seus amigos pregar a nova religião aos povos do outro lado do oceano”.

-	Entretanto, muitas das marcas, precedem o santo cristão - e mesmo os fenícios - em milhares de anos.	+	Entretanto, muitas das marcas, precedem o santo cristão - e mesmo os fenícios - em milhares de anos. Tais interpretações - aplicadas também a figuras míticas de outras culturas americanas, como Quetzalcóatl e o andino Viracocha, subestimam sistematicamente as culturas indígenas e sua antiguidade. Até a primeira metade do século XX e, ocasionalmente, também depois, estiveram freqüentemente associadas a teorias sobre a superioridade dos europeus ou "arianos": como estes eram considerados a única "raça" humana dotada de criatividade, todos os sinais de cultura encontrados em outras raças deveriam ser atribuídos a contatos antigos com brancos. Daí a ênfase na suposta descrição de tais heróis civilizadores pelos indígenas como "brancos e barbudos", às vezes até como "loiros" - caracerísticas que, na verdade, surgem da reelaboração do mito após os descobrimentos, ou mesmo de sugestões de missionários ansiosos por identificar os heróis civilizadores indígenas com o "Apóstolo das Índias".
