Description

Explore the complex relationship between the physical and the terrifying in Inhuman Materiality in Gothic Media. Published by Routledge as part of the Research in Cultural and Media Studies series, this book examines how materiality appears across various gothic media formats. It provides a deep look into the inhuman elements found at the core of literature, film, and contemporary media. By outlining a specific philosophy of horror, the text addresses the unsettling nature of the nonhuman, the machine, and the nonorganic. The author explains why materiality is a perfect subject for gothic and horror discussions, specifically how it threatens to bypass human consciousness and control. This work connects these concepts by studying how physical manifestations create a unique form of horror that exists beyond the realm of the known.
