Description

This scholarly volume examines global ambiguity as a defining formal feature of nineteenth-century American gothic literature, exploring how texts generate equally plausible yet mutually exclusive interpretations. Drawing on narrative theory and cultural studies, the author investigates the narrative origins of global ambiguity and the cultural work this formal feature performs within the historical development of the American gothic genre. The study bridges literary analysis and historical context to reveal how gothic form interacts with ideology and meaning-making in canonical and lesser-known works from the period. Essential reading for literary scholars, students of American literature, and anyone interested in understanding how gothic narratives create interpretive complexity and engage with nineteenth-century cultural anxieties.

Key Features

Focuses on global ambiguity as a key formal feature of American gothic texts, examining how internal evidence supports multiple conflicting interpretations.

Combines narrative theory and cultural studies approaches to analyse how nineteenth-century gothic literature performs important cultural work.

Investigates the narrative origins and mechanisms through which global ambiguity emerges in gothic fiction and its relationship to historical ideology.

Part of the Routledge Research in American Literature and Culture series, providing rigorous scholarship on gothic form and literary history.

Explores the dynamic interactions between gothic literary form and broader cultural meanings within nineteenth-century American writing.
