Description
Be they tales whispered in the darkness or stories told by the fireside, the ghost story has long been a staple of the Gothic mode. Many Gothic writers of the Romantic period wrote ghost stories for magazines and giftbooks such as ‘The Keepsake’, whilst a number of Gothic novels feature tales told within the narratives themselves. But although ghost stories are a key Gothic convention, their significance as a narrative form has often been overlooked. This seminar explored the ghost story and the supernatural as a global phenomenon, showcasing its significance in women’s Gothic writing.| Period | 25 Oct 2021 |
