Abstract

This book examines how the vampire has always been connected to ideas of infection, pollution and disease—even more so in the 21st century where it expresses the horrors of unseen and unstoppable disease and the foreboding and anxiety that accompany viral outbreaks and wider epidemics. Here the vampire gives physical form to the contagion and associated anxieties around the perceived causes and spread of disease, where it can take on many forms from animal to pestilential particulate matter, creeping shadows and even malignant weather systems. If blood is life, it is the body of the vampire that is death. This timely study looks at how and why the vampire continues to fulfil this function and posits that the true patient zero in the 21st century is no longer the dangerous, ancient, outsider from the East but is the undying monster that is Western culture itself. Simon Bacon is an independent scholar based in Poznań, Poland. He has written and edited 25+ books including Becoming Vampire (2017), Eco-vampires (2019), Nosferatu in the 21st Century (2023), 1000 Vampires on Screen (2 volumes, 2023), and The Palgrave Handbook of the Vampire (forthcoming).

Abstract

After 9/11, the world felt the “shock and awe” of the War on Terror. But that war also exploded inside novels, films, comics, and gaming. Danel Olson investigates why the paranormal, ghostly, and conspiratorial entered such media between 2002-2022, and how this Gothic presence connects to the most recent theories on PTSD. Set in New York/Gotham, Afghanistan, Iraq, and CIA black sites, the traumatic and weird works interrogated here ask how killing affects the killers. The protagonists probed are artillery, infantry, and armored-cavalry soldiers; military intelligence; the Air Force; counter-terrorism officers of the NYPD, NCIS, FBI, and CIA; and even the ultimate crime-fighting vigilante, Batman.

Abstract

Gothic Romanticism: Wordsworth, Architecture, Politics, Form offers a revisionist account of both Wordsworth and the politics of antiquarianism in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. As a historically-driven study that develops a significant critique and revision of genre- and theory-based approaches to the Gothic, it covers many key works by Wordsworth and his fellow “Lake Poets” Samuel Taylor Coleridge and Robert Southey. The second edition incorporates new materials that develop the argument in new directions opened up by changes in the field over the last decade. The book also provides a sustained reflection upon Romantic conservatism, including the political thought and lasting influence of Edmund Burke. New material places the book in wider and longer context of the political and historical forms seen developing in Wordsworth, and proposes Gothic Romanticism as the alternative line of cultural development to Victorian Medievalism. Tom Duggett is Senior Associate Professor of Literature at Xi’an Jiaotong-Liverpool University (XJTLU), China, and Honorary Fellow in the Department of English at the University of Liverpool, UK.

Abstract

"Recent years have seen a revival of the bitter and heated culture wars of the 1990s but this time its battle ground is the internet. On one side the "alt right" ranges from the once obscure and bizarre neo-reactionary and white separatist movements to geeky subcultures like 4chan to more mainstream manifestations such as the Trump supporting gay libertarian Milo Yiannopolous. On the other side of the war, a culture of struggle sessions and virtue signalling lurks behind a therapeutic language of trigger warnings and safe spaces. The feminist side of the online culture wars has its equally geeky subcultures right through to its mainstream expression. Kill All Normies explores some of the cultural genealogies and past parallels of these styles and subcultures, drawing from transgressive styles of 60s libertinism and conservative movements and to make the case for a rejection of the perpetual cultural turn"--Back cover.

Abstract

Moderne samenlevingen worden gekenmerkt door een diversiteit aan culturele en etnische groepen. Burgers delen niet meer dezelfde religieuze, culturele of etnische achtergrond, maar behoren tot verschillende en soms zelfs concurrerende waarde- en belevingspatronen. Deze bundel wil een filosofisch inzicht bieden in de oorsprong van sociaal-culturele spanningsrelaties en de mogelijke antwoorden hierop. Waardoor roepen verschillen tussen mensen en groeperingen soms irritatie, onbehagen of zelfs woede op? En hoe kunnen burgers en politieke instellingen met deze spanningen omgaan?
