    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.

    Horror isn't what it used to be. Nor are its Gothic avatars. The meaning of monsters, vampires and ghosts has changed significantly over the last two hundred years, as have the mechanisms (from fiction to fantasmagoria, film and video games) through which they are produced and consumed. Limits of horror, moving from gothic to cybergothic, through technological modernity and across a range of literary, cinematic and popular cultural texts, critically examines these changes and the questions they pose for understanding contemporary culture and subjectivity.Re-examining key concepts such as the uncanny, the sublime, terror, shock and abjection in terms of their bodily and technological implications, this book advances current critical and theoretical debates on Gothic horror to propose a new theory of cultural production based on an extensive discussion of Freud's idea of the death drive.

    Monstrous media/spectral subjects explores the intersection of monsters, ghosts, representation and technology in Gothic texts from the nineteenth century to the present. It argues that emerging media technologies from the phantasmagoria and magic lantern to the hand-held video camera and the personal computer both shape Gothic subjects and in turn become Gothicised. ; In a collection of essays that ranges from the Victorian fiction of Wilkie Collins, Bram Stoker and Richard Marsh to the music of Tom Waits, world horror cinema and the TV series Doctor Who, this book finds fresh and innovative contexts for the study of Gothic. Combining essays by well-established and emerging scholars, it should appeal to academics and students researching both Gothic literature and culture and the cultural impact of new technologies Addresses important questions about the role of emerging technologies in modern culture and sheds new light on study of the Gothic Introduction, Fred Botting and Catherine Spooner; Part I: Between text and image; 2: Gothic wars, media's lust: on the cultural afterlife of the war dead, Elisabeth Bronfen; 3: Kingdom of shadows: fin-de-siècle gothic and early cinema, Paul Foster; 4: '˜A mirror with a memory': the development of the negative in Victorian gothic, Gregory Brophy; 5: Modern phantasmagorias and visual culture in Wilkie Collins's Basil , Laurence Talairach-Vielmas; Part II: Sounding spectres; 6: '˜The earth died screaming': Tom Waits's Bone Machine, Steen Christiansen; 7: Ghosts of the Gristleized, Dean Lockwood; Part III: Moving media; 8: '˜Nineteenth century (up-to-date) with a vengeance': vampirism, Victorianism and collage in Guy Maddin's Dracula, Pages from a Virgin's Diary, Dorothea Schuller; 9: Spectrality and the deconstruction of the cinema in Neil Burger's The Illusionist and Steven Millhauser's short stories, Jean-François Baillon; 10: Performing Fabulous Monsters: Re-inventing the gothic personae in bizarre magic, Nik Taylor and Stuart Nolan; 11: Body genres, night vision and the female monster: REC and the contemporary horror film, Agnieszka Soltysik Monnet; 12: You have been saved: digital memory and salvation, Stephen Curtis; Index

    This is a major re-evaluation of the role and cultural significance of Gothic horror. It offers analysis of literary, film, art and popular cultural texts and critical explanations of key terms (horror, uncanny etc.) to interrogate the contemporary and historical significance of monsters, vampires and ghosts in technological and consumer culture Horror isn't what it used to be. Nor are its Gothic avatars.; The meaning of monsters, vampires and ghosts has changed significantly over the last two hundred years, as have the mechanisms (from fiction to fantasmagoria, film and video games) through which they are produced and consumed. Limits of horror, moving from gothic to cybergothic, through technological modernity and across a range of literary, cinematic and popular cultural texts, critically examines these changes and the questions they pose for understanding contemporary culture and subjectivity. ; Re-examining key concepts such as the uncanny, the sublime, terror, shock and abjection in terms of their bodily and technological implications, this book advances current critical and theoretical debates on Gothic horror to propose a new theory of cultural production based on an extensive discussion of Freud's idea of the death drive.; Limits of horror will appeal to students and academics in Literature, Film, Media and Cultural Studies and Cultural Theory Acknowledgements; Introduction:Horror now and then ; 1.
