Queer Others in Victorian Gothic: Transgressing Monstrosity
explores the intersections of Gothic, cultural, gender, queer,
socio-economic and postcolonial theories in nineteenth-century
British representations of sexuality, gender, class and race. From
mid-century authors like Wilkie Collins and Elizabeth Gaskell to
fin-de-siecle writers such as J. Sheridan Le Fanu, Florence Marryat
and Vernon Lee, this study examines the ways that these Victorian
writers utilized gothic horror as a proverbial 'safe space' in
which to grapple with taboo social and cultural issues. This work
simultaneously explores our current assumptions about a Victorian
culture that was monolithic in its disdain for those who were
'other'.
