'Scottish Gothic: An Edinburgh Companion is the first book-length survey of a distinctive cultural phenomenon: the association of Scotland with an undead past, perverse psychology and uncanny states of being. Ranging from eighteenth-century origins to the present, the volume features contributions from some of the leading scholars in their fields.' Ian Duncan, University of California, Berkeley Interrogates the Gothic in relation to Scotland, 'Scottishness', British Gothic, cultural and national boundaries, and issues of identity Written from various critical standpoints by internationally renowned scholars, Scottish Gothic: An Edinburgh Companion interrogates the ways in which the concepts of the Gothic and Scotland have intersected and been manipulated from the mid-eighteenth century to the present day. This interdisciplinary collection is the first ever published study to investigate the multifarious strands of Gothic in Scottish fiction, poetry, theatre and film. Its contributors - all specialists in their fields - combine an attention to socio-historical and cultural contexts with a rigorous close reading of works, both classic and lesser known, produced between the eighteenth and twenty-first centuries. Key Features - Offers the first critical collection devoted to the topic of the Scottish Gothic as it is manifested across centuries. - Re-ignites ongoing debates about the relationship between Scotland and the Gothic, Scotland and Romanticism, Scotland and the Enlightenment, and the role of the Gothic in relation to national identity issues. - Considers issues of religion, politics, history, and culture/cultural identity in Scottish Gothic texts across centuries against the backdrop of the Act of Union and the process of devolution/independence. - Presents fresh readings of established, overlooked and recent Scottish Gothic works across a variety of cultural and literary forms. Carol Margaret Davison is Professor and Head of the Department of English Language, Literature and Creative Writing at the University of Windsor. She is the author of History of the Gothic: Gothic Literature 1764-1824 (2009). Monica Germanà is Senior Lecturer in English Literature and Creative Writing at the University of Westminster. Her publications include Scottish Women's Gothic and Fantastic Writing (2010). Cover image: Cover design: [EUP logo] [...] ISBN 978-1-4744-0819-6 Barcode
