Summary

Already one of the definitive books covering the popular field of gothic studies, this new edition offers a wealth of new material on the subject: two new chapters plot the genre's major developments through the 20th and into the 21st century, identifying key texts and contexts, and charting crucial relationships with cognate genres in literature, popular culture and media (from modernism to romance, cinema, horror, SF and postmodernism).
