Paperback. Condition: Fair. Horror has been one of the most spectacular and controversial genres in both cinema and fiction - its wild excesses relished by some, vilified by many others.

Spanning the history of horror in literature and film and discussing texts from Britain, the United States, Europe, the Caribbean and Hong Kong, it explores a diversity of horror forms from classic gothic literature like Frankenstein and Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde, to contemporary serial killers, horror film fanzines and low-budget movies such as The Leech Woman and The Texas Chainsaw Massacre.Themes addressed include:* the fantastic * horror and psychoanalysis * monstrosities * different Frankensteins * vampires * queer horror * American gothic * splatter and slasher films * race and ethnicity * lowbrow and low-budget horror * new regional horror.The Reader opens with an introduction to 'the field of horror' by Ken Gelder, and each thematic section includes an introductory preface. There is also a comprehensive bibliography of horror literature.…

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. This book presents a cultural history of subcultures, covering a remarkable range of subcultural forms and practices. It begins with London?s ?Elizabethan underworld?, taking the rogue and vagabond as subcultural prototypes: the basis for Marx?s later view of subcultures as the lumpenproletariat, and Henry Mayhew?s view of subcultures as ?those that will not work? Subcultures are always in some way non-conforming or dissenting. They are social - with their own shared conventions, values, rituals, and so on ? but they can also seem ?immersed? or self-absorbed. This book identifies six key ways in which subcultures have generally been understood:through their often negative relation to work: idle, parasitical, hedonistic, criminaltheir negative or ambivalent relation to classtheir association with territory - the ?street?, the ?hood?, the club - rather than propertytheir movement away from home into non-domestic forms of ?belonging?their ties to excess and exaggeration (as opposed to restraint and moderation)their refusal of the banalities of ordinary life and in particular, of massification.Subcultures looks at the way these features find expression across many different subcultural groups: from the Ranters to the riot grrrls, from taxi dancers to drag queens and kings, from bebop to hip hop, from dandies to punk, from hobos to leatherfolk, and from hippies and bohemians to digital pirates and virtual communities. It argues that subcultural identity is primarily a matter of narrative and narration, which means that its focus is literary as well as sociological. It also argues for the idea of a subcultural geography: that subcultures inhabit places in particular ways, their investment in them being as much imaginary as real and, in some cases, strikingly utopian.…
