Focusing on the sources of narrative content—how the content is produced and what makes something weird—Michael Cisco engages with theories from Deleuze and Guattari to explain how genres work and to understand the relationship between identity and the ordinary. Cisco also uses these theories to examine the supernatural not merely as a horde of tropes, but as a recognition of the infinity of experience in defiance of limiting norms. The book also traces the sociopolitical implications of weird fiction, studying the differentiation of major and minor literatures. Through an articulated theoretical model and close textual analysis, readers will learn not only what weird fiction is, but how and why it is produced. | 出版日期 | Book 2021 | 关键词 | Weird fiction; Deleuze; genre fiction; horror fiction; Science Fiction; speculative fiction; literature an | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-92450-8 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-030-92452-2 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-030-92450-8 | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerl |
