Edited by Dorota Wisniewska, Agnieszka Lowczanin
Part of the Dis/Continuities series
Hardback
Description
This book provides a comprehensive introduction to the history, aesthetics and key themes of Gothic, the main issues and debates surrounding the genre along with the approaches and theories that have been applied to Gothic texts and films.
The volume discusses a wide range of 18th and 19th century texts and moves into 20th century literature and film.
It explores the cultural resonances created by the genre and raises a variety of issues, including the ways in which Gothic monstrosity mimics same-sex desire and social transgression.
The texts included in the volume argue that Gothic film and fiction animated the darker shadows of the dominant culture.
