Gothic Vision
Author: Dani Cavallaro
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 1847141897
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 241
Book Description
The Gothic Vision examines a broad range of tales of horror, terror, the uncanny and the supernatural, spanning the late-eighteenth century to the present, and of related theoretical approaches to the realm of dark writing. It argues that such narratives are objects for historical analysis, due to their implication in specific ideologies, while also focusing on the recurrence over time of themes of physical and psychological disintegration, spectrality and monstrosity. This is an excellent overview of a genre that is increasingly studied in literature, film, and cultural studies courses.
