Gothic Britain is the first collection of essays to consider how
the Gothic responds to, and is informed by, the British regional
experience. Acknowledging how the so-called United Kingdom has
historically been divided on nationalistic lines, the twelve
original essays in this volume interrogate the interplay of ideas
and generic innovations generated in the spaces between the nominal
kingdom and its component nations and, innovatively, within those
national spaces. Concentrating upon fictions depicting England,
Scotland and Wales specifically, Gothic Britain comprehends the
generic possibilities of the urban and the rural, of the historical
and the contemporary, of the metropolis and the rural settlement -
as well as exploring uniquely the fluid space that is the act of
travel itself. Reading the textuality of some two hundred years of
national and regional identity, Gothic Britain interrogates how the
genre has depicted and questioned the natural and built
environments of the island of Britain.
