The Gothic and death is the first published study devoted to the
subject of the Gothic and death across the centuries. It
investigates how the multifarious strands of the Gothic and the
concepts of death, dying, mourning and memorialisation ('the Death
Question') have intersected and been configured cross-culturally to
diverse ends from the mid-eighteenth century to the present day.
Drawing on recent scholarship in such fields as Gothic Studies,
film theory, Women's and Gender Studies and Thanatology Studies,
this interdisciplinary collection of fifteen essays by
international scholars combines an attention to socio-historical
and cultural contexts with a rigorous close reading of works, both
classic and lesser known. This area of enquiry is considered by way
of such popular and uncanny figures as corpses, ghosts, zombies and
vampires, and across various cultural and literary forms such as
Graveyard Poetry, Romantic poetry and Victorian literature. -- .
