A transnational and transmedia companion to the post-millennial Gothic
Key Features
Covers key areas and themes of the post-millennial Gothic as well as developments in the field and revisions of the Gothic tradition
Consitutes the first thematic compendium to this area with a transmedia (literature, film and television) and transnational approach
Covers a plurality of texts, from novels such as Stephenie Meyer’s Twilight (2005), Helen Oyeyemi’s White Is for Witching (2009), Justin Cronin’s The Passage (2010) and M.R. Carey’s The Girl with All the Gifts (2014), to films such as Kairo (2001), Juan of the Dead (2012) and The Darkside (2013), to series such as Dante’s Cove (2005–7), Hemlock Grove (2013–15), Penny Dreadful (2014–16) Black Mirror (2011–) and even the Slenderman mythos.
This resource in contemporary Gothic literature, film and television takes a thematic approach, providing insights into the many forms the Gothic has taken in the twenty-first century. The 20 newly commissioned chapters cover emerging and expanding research areas, such as digital technologies, queer identity, the New Weird and postfeminism. They also discuss contemporary Gothic monsters – including zombies, vampires and werewolves – and highlight Ethnogothic forms such as Asian and Black Diasporic Gothic.
