    Substantially reworks accounts of gothic and globalisation, to examine located gothic engagements with global histories and phenomenaProvides a comprehensive theorisation of globalgothic in the age of planetary crisisIncludes analyses of gothic fiction from six continentsOffers a range of new globalgothic approaches, modalities and regional permutationsThe Edinburgh Companion to Globalgothic is the most substantial exploration to date of gothic fiction in the international context. Examining texts from across six continents, the volume considers how gothic imagines, colludes with or interrogates relationships and phenomena that are planetary in scale. Accordingly, chapters address gothic engagements with - among others - resource imperialism, (ongoing) colonial history, diasporic identity, buckling economic unions, the rise of the internet, enthnonationalism, and entangled systems of gendered, racialised and ecocidal power. In this way, the collection moves decisively beyond the framework of globalisation to identify a range of new globalgothic approaches and modes, overall demonstrating that gothic is a key - though sometimes complicit - register for negotiating the challenges and histories of our uneven global present.

    "This book is the first full-length study of the postsecular in African literatures. Religion, secularism, and the intricate negotiations between the two, codified as postsecularism, are fundamental conditions of globalized modernity. These concerns have been addressed in social science disciplines, but largely neglected in postcolonial and literary studies. To remedy this oversight, this monograph brings debates in religious and postsecular studies to bear on African literatures and postcolonial studies. The focus of this interdisciplinary study is to understand how postsecular negotiations manifest in postcolonial African settings and how they are represented and registered in fiction. Through this focus, the book demonstrates how African and African-diasporic authors radically disrupt the epistemological and ontological modalities of globalized literary production, often characterized as secular, and imagine alternatives which incorporate religious discourse into a postsecular world"--...
