Notes

"This collection of newly commissioned essays brings together major scholars in the field of Gothic studies in order to re-think the topic of 'Women and the Gothic'. The 14 chapters in this volume encompass debates about the term 'Female Gothic', the legacy of second-wave feminism, developments in the theorisation of gender and the problematics of post-feminism, including challenges from a younger generation of women. The contributors explore Gothic works - from established classics to recent films and novels - from feminist and post-feminist perspectives. The result is a lively book that combines rigorous close readings with elegant use of theory in order to question some ingrained assumptions about women, the Gothic and identity"--Back cover
