Synopsis:
In pursuing the sources for late-eighteenth and nineteenth-century 'demonization' of racial and cultural difference, this book moves back and forth between the imagined world of literature and the 'real' world of historical experience, between fictional romance and what has been called the 'parallel fictions' of the human sciences of anthropology and biology.

Book Description: Stanford University Press, Stanford, 1996. Paperback. Book Condition: New. First Paperback Edition. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. In pursuing the sources for late-eighteenth and nineteenth-century demonization of racial and cultural difference, this book moves back and forth between the imagined world of literature and the real world of historical experience, between fictional romance and what has been called the parallel fictions of the human sciences of anthropology and biology. The author argues that the gothic genre and its various permutations offered a language that could be appropriated, consciously or not, by racists in a powerful and obsessively reiterated evocation of terror, disgust, and alienation. But he shows that the gothic itself also evolved in the context of the brutal progress of European nationalism and imperialism, and absorbed much from them. This book explores both the gothicization of race and the racialization of the gothic as inseparable processes. Uses books from the period like "Frankenstein" and Bram Stoker's "Dracula" to explore the theory. Full Contents: Was Frankenstein's Monster "a Man and a Brother"? ; "Race" in the Napoleonic Era; Frankenstein; Education & Moral Dilemma; The Victorian Frankenstein; Making Monsters; Cannibalism & Popular Culture: Cannibal Gothic; Cannibalism, White & Black; From the Gothic to the Comic; Vampire Gothic & Late-Victorian Identity: Identity & the Gothic Revival; Stoker & the Homosexual; The Vampire as Racial Other; The Half-Breed as Gothic Unnatural: Shadows; A Spreading Realm; The Half-Breed & Rebellion: Three Studies; Epilogue: Race, Gender & Moral Panic: Miss Jewell's Marriage Revisited.
