Irish Gothic: Edinburgh Companions to the Gothic

Editat de Jarlath Killeen, Christina Morin
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 3 iul 2023
Offers fresh perspectives on Irish Gothic and its pervasiveness in Irish culture from the eighteenth century to today. Irish Gothic: An Edinburgh Companion provides a comprehensive account of the extent to which Gothic can be traced in Irish cultural life from the eighteenth century to the contemporary moment, across both elite and popular genres and through a range of different media, including literature, cinema and folklore. It responds, in particular, to the understanding that Gothic is ubiquitous in Irish literature and culture. Rather than focus exclusively on the oft-studied Irish Gothic foursome - Charles Maturin, Sheridan Le Fanu, Oscar Wilde and Bram Stoker - this companion turns attention to overlooked 'minor' figures such as Regina Maria Roche, Mrs F. C. Patrick, James Clarence Mangan and Eimear McBride. At the same time, it considers the multi-generic nature of Irish Gothic, thinking beyond fiction and, in particular, the novel, as the Gothic genre par excellence. The volume also takes account of Irish language Gothic, illuminating the ways in which the Gothic in Ireland has found and continues to find expression in different cultural and linguistic communities. Jarlath Killeen is Lecturer in Victorian Literature in the School of English, Trinity College Dublin. His publications include Imagining the Irish Child: Discourses of Childhood in Irish Anglican Writing of the Seventeenth and Eighteenth Centuries (2023) and The Emergence of Irish Gothic Fiction (2013). Christina Morin is Senior Lecturer in English and Assistant Dean of Research in the Faculty of Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences at the University of Limerick. Her publications include The Gothic Novel in Ireland, c. 1760-1829 (2018) and Charles Robert Maturin and the Haunting of Irish Romantic Fiction (2011).
