What is TransGothic in Literature and Culture (Routledge Interdisciplinary Perspectives on Literature) about?

This book contributes to an emerging field of study and provides new perspectives on the ways in which Gothic literature, visual media, and other cultural forms explicitly engage gender, sexuality, form, and genre. The collection is a forum in which the ideas of several well-respected critics converge, producing a breadth of knowledge and a diversity of subject areas and methodologies.

Illuminating such areas as the appropriation of the trans body in Gothic literature and film, the function of trans rhetorics in me
