The Poetics and Politics of the American Gothic: Gender and Slavery in Nineteenth-Century American Literature
Agnieszka Soltysik Monnet
Challenging the critical tendency to accept at face value that gothic literature is mainly about fear, this title instead argues that the American Gothic, and gothic literature in general, is also about judgment: how to judge and what happens when judgment is confronted with situations that defy its limits.
