What does
¡t
mean to live as a ghost? Exploring speciality as a potent metaphor
in the contemporary British and American cultural imagination,
Peeren
proposes that
certain subjects
-
migrants, servants, mediums and missing persons
-
are perceived
as living ghosts and examines how this impacts on their ability to develop agency.
From detailed readings of films (Stephen Frears s Dirty PrettyThings, Nick Broomfield s
Chosts and Robert Altman s GosfordPark), a television series (Upstairs, Downstairs)
and novels ¡Hilary Mantel s Beyond Black, Sarah
W
aters s Affinity, Ian McEwan s
TheChiid
ІпТіте
and Bret Easton Ellis s Lunar Park), there emerges an inventive account
of how the spectral metaphor, in its association with various modes of invisibility,
can signify both dispossession and empowerment. In reworking the spectral insights of,
among others, Jacques Derrida,
Antonio Negri
and
Achille
M
bembe,
Peeren
suggests
new responses to the practices of marginalization and exploitation that characterize
our globalized world,
