This volume examines various iterations of the Gothic graveyard (and other burial sites) from the eighteenth century to the twenty-first, as expressed in numerous forms of culture and media including poetry, fiction, TV, film and video games. The volume also extends its geographic scope beyond British traditions to accommodate multiple cultural perspectives, including those from the US, Mexico, Japan, Australia, India and Eastern Europe. The seventeen chapters from key international Gothic scholars engage a range of theoretical frameworks, including the historical, material, colonial, political and religious. With a critical introduction offering a platform for further scholarship and a coda mapping potential future critical and cultural developments, Graveyard Gothic is a landmark volume defining a new area of Gothic studies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBack Jacket\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e'Historically and culturally wide-ranging, \u003ci\u003eGraveyard Gothic\u003c\/i\u003e offers a scintillating scholarly unearthing of the multivalent site of the graveyard.'\u003cbr\u003eProfessor Carol Margaret Davison, editor of \u003ci\u003eThe Gothic and Death \u003c\/i\u003e(2017) \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e'Insightful and scholarly, this volume makes a major contribution to the understanding of cultural history.'\u003cbr\u003eProfessor Andrew Smith, author of \u003ci\u003eGothic Death 1740-1914: A Literary History\u003c\/i\u003e (2016) \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eGraveyard Gothic\u003c\/i\u003e examines the crucial role played by graveyards and other burial sites in Gothic literature, film, television and video games.
