The Cambridge Companion to the Modern Gothic
This Companion explores the many ways in which the Gothic has dispersed in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, and in particular how it has come to offer a focus for the tensions inherent in modernity. Fourteen essays by world-class experts show how the Gothic in numerous forms - including literature, film, television, and cyberspace - helps audiences both to distance themselves from and to deal with some of the key underlying problems of m…
The Whispering of Generations Past
In her fiction Kate Mosse, author of six novels and co-founder and Honorary Director of the Orange Prize for Fiction (now The Bailey's Prize), frequently focuses upon the theme of bodily violence enacted upon women. Her protagonists, often young early career scholars of the twenty-first century find themselves in contact with ghostly sister selves belonging to the Cathar communities of Medieval France. The egalitarian and progressive politics of …
Gothic Terms, Themes, Concepts and Contexts
Just as THE UNCANNY offers a connection to the structure of the unconscious, the abject offers a sensation of horror that connects us viscerally to the experience of repression and the process of subject formation. For Julia Kristeva, in Powers of Horror, abjection disturbs ‘identity, system, order’ and is characterised by ‘the in-between, the ambiguous, the composite’.
Introduction
Critical introduction to the special issue of the journal Women: A Cultural Review, written and edited by Maroula Joannou, Lucie Armitt and Paulina Palmer

Bowlby's ambitious monograph paints upon a panoramic canvas of Ancient Greek tragedy and its influence upon the shape and profile of Freud's oeuvre. Though primarily a study of Freud, Freudian Mythologies also offers a reading of Aeschylus, Aristotle, Euripides, Plato, and Sophocles for the twenty-first century and, in so doing, crosses eons and cultural divides with ease. Inevitably, in a wide-ranging book of this nature, a certain amount of sim…

Stranger and stranger’
HISTORICAL fiction offers women writers and their female protagonists a way into history through the back door, into that masculinized history traditionally characterized, in the words of Angela Carter, by a conspicuous ‘paucity of historical references to that statistically rather more than half of the human race to which we belong’ (Carter 1980:227). As the symbolic Other of the white western male historical subject, women have repeatedly been …
