Catherine Belsey’s answer to the question traces Gothic writing and tales of the uncanny from the ancient past to the present – from Homer and the Icelandic sagas to Lincoln in the Bardo. Taking Shakespeare’s Ghost in Hamlet as a turning point in the history of the genre, she uncovers the old stories the play relies on, as well as its influence on later writing. This ghostly trail is vividly charted through accredited records of apparitions and fiction by such writers as Ann Radcliffe, Washington Irving, Emily Brontë, Nathaniel Hawthorne, Henry James, M. R. James and Susan Hill. In recent blockbusting movies, too, ghost stories bring us fragments of news from the unknown. ‘an engaging examination of the persistence of these shivery tales in the western canon’ Erica Wagner, The Financial Times PB £14.99 | $19.95 September 2019 288 pages 9781474417372 10 b&w illustrations Also available in HB & Ebook The Edinburgh Companion to Gothic and the Arts Edited by David Punter, University of Bristol Provides new definitions of the Gothic in a variety of artistic contexts The Gothic in all its artistic forms and ramifications is traced from the medieval to the twenty-first-century.

An Introduction discusses Gothic as a changing cultural form across the centuries with deep psychological roots. This is followed by sections on: architectural arts; the visual arts; music and the performance arts; the literary arts; and media and cultural arts.

  • Lesbian Modernism I Hannah Roche
    Day One | April 12th Panel 1a | Lesbian Modernism I Hannah Roche (University of York) Conceiving the Lesbian Hero: Radclyffe Hall, Adam’s Breed, and Modernism’s Queer Child. In 1927, just a year before the publication and trial for obscenity of The Well of Loneliness, Radclyffe Hall’s fourth novel achieved the unusual honour of winning both the Prix Femina Vie Heureuse and the James Tait Black Memorial Prize. Adam’s Breed (1926), which probes the psyche of a spiritually starved Italian‐English waiter in Soho, raised Hall’s profile both as a writer and as a curiosity: public attention was drawn to the ‘distinctive figure in the literary world of London [who] is known everywhere for her Eton crop and her monocle’ (Daily News, 4th January 1928). Yet in spite of its considerable commercial success and remarkable critical acclaim, Adam’s Breed could not withstand the knock to Hall’s reputation dealt by the trial of The Well. Almost ninety years and a Virago Modern Classics edition (1985) later, Adam’s Breed has failed to secure a readership beyond the relatively small world of serious Hall criticism. This paper calls for the recognition of Adam’s Breed not only as a significant modern(ist) novel but also as an altogether necessary precursor to The Well. Expanding the category of ‘lesbian writing’, my paper raises important questions about how and why we might read lesbianism as the focus of an ostensibly ‘straight’ (and linear) novel. I explore the ways in which Hall’s preoccupation with breeds, not only as a keen dog‐fancier but more weightily as a proponent of homosexuality as a congenital condition, is played out in Adam’s Breed’s essentialist take on national ‘types’.
