What do we mean by 'The Gothic'? How was it seeded? Where is it
located? Why is it frequently characterised by the breaching of
boundaries and the play of transgression and taboo? This revised
handbook will explore these questions and many more through over
one hundred multi-authored entries by nearly eighty leading
scholars. Sections in the book are devoted to major and minor
Gothic writers, 'Gothic Themes, terms, concepts and contexts' and
to 'Gothic Locations'. Developments in the field, which have taken
place since the pioneering The Handbook to Gothic Literature first
appeared over a decade ago, have led to this new edition. New
entries are included on nine authors, as well as on areas such as
children's literature, comedy, music and medicine. There is also an
expanded list of further reading, a new Gothic filmography and a
list of Gothicised websites. This authoritative and accessible
handbook continues to explore, through a diverse, comprehensive and
yet eclectic mix of topics, the perennial concerns of the Gothic.
This handbook will be an invaluable servant to all lovers of the
Gothic.
