520 $a"Gothic Fiction explores the worlds of sexual and social transgression, and in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries it remained semirespectable in spite of its lurid scenes of sexual violence and interpersonal abuse. George Haggerty's Queer Gothic argues that gothic fiction itself helped to shape thinking about sexual matters and animated the darker shadows of the dominant fiction with materials that anticipated later developments in the field of sexology and psychology. Haggerty raises a variety of issues, includes the uses of loss to invoke homoerotically inflected horror, the ways in which gothic monstrosity mimics same-sex desire, and the use of gothic Catholicism to demarcate particularly excessive version of sexual transgression. Haggerty discusses a wide range of eighteenth- and nineteenth century gothic texts and moves into the twentieth century with Henry James, Shirley Jackson, Patricia Highsmith, and Anne Rice." -- Provided by publisher
