Exploring the dark side of animal nature and the ‘otherness’ of animals as viewed by humans, and employing cutting-edge theory on non-human animals, eco-criticism, literary and cultural theory, this book takes the Gothic genre into new territory. ..After the dissemination of Darwin’s theories of evolution, nineteenth-century fiction quickly picked up on the idea of the ‘animal within’. Here, the fear explored was of an unruly, defiant, degenerate and entirely amoral animality lying (mostly) dormant within all of us. However, non-humans and humans have other sorts of encounters, too, and even before Darwin, humans have often had an uneasy relationship with animals, which, as Donna Haraway puts it, have a way of ‘looking back’ at us. In this book, the focus is not on the ‘animal within’ but rather on the animal ‘with-out’: otherand entirely incomprehensible. . | | 出版日期 | Book 2020 | | 关键词 | Post-Human; Ecocriticism; Film; Oscar Wilde; H; G; Wells; Folklore; Television; Uncanny; Haunting; Gothic fict | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-34540-2 | | isbn_softcover | 978-3-030-34542-6 | | isbn_ebook | 978-3-030-34540-2Series ISSN 2634-6338 Series E-ISSN 2634-6346 | | issn_series | 2634-6338 | | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerl |
