This collection of eighteen essays explores the meanings and
depictions of beauty and the abject in art (from Renaissance
portraiture to the canvasses of Salvador Dali); photography and the
representation of the body; film (from the horror genre and
gay/lesbian sexuality to socio-political problems); literature
(from classical lyric and pastoral drama to the contemporary verbal
arts); cultural studies (from the femme fatale and James Bond to
vampires and monsters); architecture; and linguistics. These essays
not only examine the theme from a variety of media and critical
perspectives, they also scrutinize and challenge traditional
notions of beauty and the abject.
