Twenty-First-Century Gothic: An Edinburgh Companion By: Xavier Aldana Reyes, Maisha Wester

Author: Maisha Wester, Xavier Aldana Reyes

This resource in contemporary Gothic literature, film and television takes a thematic approach, providing insights into the many forms the Gothic has taken in the twenty-first century. The 20 newly commissioned chapters cover emerging and expanding research areas, such as digital technologies, queer identity, the new weird and postfeminism. They also discuss contemporary Gothic monsters – including zombies, vampires and werewolves – and highlight ethnogothic forms such as Asian and Black Diasporic Gothic.
