Taking Mary Shelley’s novel as its point of departure, this
collection of essays considers how her creation has not only
survived but thrived over 200 years of media history, in music,
film, literature, visual art and other cultural forms. In studying
monstrous figures torn from the deepest and darkest imaginings of
the human psyche, the essays in this book deploy the latest
analytical approaches, drawn from such fields as musicology,
critical race studies, feminist studies, queer theory and
psychoanalysis. The book interweaves the manifold sounds, sights
and stories of monstrosity into a conversation that sheds light on
important social issues, aesthetic trends and cultural concerns
that are as alive today as they were when Shelley’s landmark
novel was published 200 years ago.
