Haunted Selves, Haunting Places in English Literature and Culture
offers a series of readings of poetry, the novel and other forms of
art and cultural expression, to explore the relationship between
subject and landscape, self and place. Utilizing an
interdisciplinary approach grounded in close reading, the text
places Jacques Derrida's work on spectrality in dialogue with
particular aspects of phenomenology. The volume explores writing
and culture from the 1880s to the present day, proceeding through
four sections examining related questions of identity, memory, the
landscape, and our modern relationship to the past. Julian Wolfreys
presents a theoretically informed understanding of the efficacy of
literature and culture in connecting us to the past in an affective
and engaged manner.
