Twentieth-Century Gothic : An Edinburgh Companion, Hardback Book

Twentieth-Century Gothic : An Edinburgh Companion Hardback

Edited by Sorcha Ni Fhlainn, Bernice M. Murphy

Part of the Edinburgh Companions to the Gothic series

Hardback

Description

.During the latter half of the twentieth century the Gothic emerged as one of the liveliest and most significant areas of academic inquiry within literary, film, and popular culture studies.

This volume covers the key concepts and developments associated with Twentieth-Century Gothic, tracing the development of the mode from the fin de siecle to 9/11.

The eighteen chapters reflect the interdisciplinary and ever-evolving nature of the Gothic, which, during the century, migrated from literature and drama to the cinema and television.

The volume has both a chronological and thematic focus and particular attention is paid to topics and themes related to race, identity, marginality and technology.

Chapters on ecogothic, Gothic Studies as a discipline, Medical Humanities, Queer Studies, African American Studies and Russian Gothic ensure that the collection is up-to-date and wide-ranging.

Suggested further readings at the end of each chapter are intended to facilitate further independent research by readers and researchers.
