Pages : 422
Book Description
Excerpt from Dark Scenes of History Hark, a door opens. It is that of the ante-chamber; and the wind which it admits shakes the door of the hall, and makes it rattle on its hinges. Other sounds find their way in also those of voices laughing and talking. They are soon excluded, as the door of the ante room is closed again; and then a man, in the dress of a servant, enters, bearing a lighted taper. His step is slow and quiet and one by one he lights the candles in the sconces, arranges the seats more orderly round the table, and retires.

Dark Scenes from Damaged Earth
Author: Justin D. Edwards
Publisher: U of Minnesota Press
ISBN: 145296727X
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 344
Book Description
An urgent volume of essays engages the Gothic to advance important perspectives on our geological era What can the Gothic teach us about our current geological era? More than just spooky, moonlit castles and morbid graveyards, the Gothic represents a vibrant, emergent perspective on the Anthropocene. In this volume, more than a dozen scholars move beyond longstanding perspectives on the Anthropocene—such as science fiction and apocalyptic narratives—to show that the Gothic offers a unique (and dark) interpretation of events like climate change, diminished ecosystems, and mass extinction. Embracing pop cultural phenomena like True Detective, Jaws, and Twin Peaks, as well as topics from the New Weird and prehistoric shark fiction to ruin porn and the “monstroscene,” Dark Scenes from Damaged Earth demonstrates the continuing vitality of the Gothic while opening important new paths of inquiry. These essays map a genealogy of the Gothic while providing fresh perspectives on the ongoing climate chaos, the North/South divide, issues of racialization, dark ecology, questions surrounding environmental justice, and much more. Contributors: Fred Botting, Kingston U; Timothy Clark, U of Durham; Rebecca Duncan, Linnaeus U; Michael Fuchs, U of Oldenburg, Germany; Esthie Hugo, U of Warwick; Dawn Keetley, Lehigh U; Laura R. Kremmel, South Dakota School of Mines and Technology; Timothy Morton, Rice U; Barry Murnane, U of Oxford; Jennifer Schell, U of Alaska Fairbanks; Lisa M.
