Zusammenfassung:Explores a full spectrum of Gothic works broadly understood as queer, from the eighteenth century to todayExplores Gothic themes through nuanced queer lensesRe-visits past ideas of queer theory and expands on them within Gothic contextFocuses on time periods, genres, and queer Gothic modesQueer Gothic: An Edinburgh Companion features sixteen essays that interrogate queer theory's intersections with the Gothic.
