This book brings together a carefully selected range of
contemporary disciplinary approaches to new areas of Gothic
inquiry. Moving beyond the representational and historically based
aspects of literature and film that have dominated Gothic studies,
this volume both acknowledges the contemporary diversification of
Gothic scholarship and maps its changing and mutating incarnations.
Drawing strength from their fascinating diversity, and points of
correlation, the varied perspectives and subject areas cohere
around a number of core themes - of re-evaluation, discovery, and
convergence - to reveal emerging trends and new directions in
Gothic scholarship. Visiting fascinating areas including the Gothic
and digital realities, uncanny food experiences, representations of
death and the public media, Gothic creatures and their popular
legacies, new approaches to contemporary Gothic literature, and
re-evaluations of the Gothic mode through regional narratives,
essays reveal many patterns and intersecting approaches, forcefully
testifying to the multifaceted, although lucidly coherent, nature
of Gothic studies in the 21st Century. The multiple disciplines
represented - from digital inquiry to food studies, from fine art
to dramaturgy - engage with the Gothic in order to offer new
definitions and methodological approaches to Gothic scholarship.
The interdisciplinary, transnational focus of this volume provides
exciting new insights into, and expanded and revitalised
definitions of, the Gothic and its related fields.
