What do we mean by the term 'Gothic'? How does it differ from such classifications as 'terror' and 'horror' and where do its parameters lie? In an attempt to define such an elusive term, this A-Z will unearth the terminologies associated with Gothic through a variety of short essays written by leading scholars. Not only will it plot the national characteristics of Gothic as in the French school of terror, Frenetique to American Gothic, but it will also span the period from Ann Radcliffe to Anne Rice. Recent scholarly developments like 'Race and Gothic' will be explored as well as the burgeoning 'Gothic Body'. The main authors who contributed most to the genre will be included along with entries like 'Architecture' and 'Film' which illustrate its inter-disciplinary nature. A helpful glossary will illuminate some of the more obscure and cryptic terms while a detailed reading list will help to ensure that this text remains an essential companion for students and general readers of Gothic literature.
