This collection provides a thorough representation of the early and ongoing conversation between Gothic and theory - philosophical, aesthetic, psychological and cultural - both in the many modes of Gothic and in many of the realms of theory now current in the modern world.

- Enables students to connect what otherwise seem a wide variety of diverse phenomena, from the rise of philosophical 'emotivism' to poetic tales of terror and Gothic film
- Advances current scholarly investigation, by invigorating debates within both Gothic studies and literary theory.
- Makes connections between a wide variety of issues, from eco-crisis and contemporary culture wars to the persistent problem of the 'other'
