Produktbeschreibung

Moving beyond the representational and historically based aspects of literature and film that have dominated Gothic studies, this book acknowledges the contemporary diversification of Gothic scholarship and maps its changing and mutating incarnations. Visiting areas such as the Gothic and digital realities, uncanny food experiences, representations of death and the public media, Gothic creatures and their popular legacies, new approaches to contemporary Gothic literature, and re-evaluations of the Gothic mode through regional narratives, essays reveal the multifaceted nature of Gothic studies in the 21st Century. This volume provides exciting new insights into the Gothic and related fields.
