In 1888 the name Jack the Ripper entered public consciousness with
the brutal murders of women in the East End of London. The murderer
was never caught, yet film and television depicts a killer with a
recognisable costume, motive and persona. This book examines the
origins of the screen presentation of the four key elements
associated with the murders - Jack the Ripper, the victims, the
detective and Whitechapel. Nineteenth-century history, art and
literature, psychoanalytical theories of Freud and Jung and
feminist film theory are all used to deconstruct the representation
of Jack the Ripper on screen.
