Description

Body Gothic: Corporeal Transgression in Contemporary Literature and Horror Film provides a new perspective on the gothic genre. While many studies focus on spectrality or haunted concepts, this work reinstates the importance of viscerality. This book examines how contemporary discourses regarding our bodies help us understand the social messages found in fictional mutilation. It explores the various literary and cinematic movements from the last three decades that use the body as a meaningful gothic tool. This text is an essential resource for understanding the connection between physical presence and the horror genre in modern media.
