    Offers fresh perspectives on Irish Gothic and its pervasiveness in Irish culture from the eighteenth century to today. Irish Gothic: An Edinburgh Companion provides a comprehensive account of the extent to which Gothic can be traced in Irish cultural life from the eighteenth century to the contemporary moment, across both elite and popular genres and through a range of different media, including literature, cinema and folklore. It responds, in particular, to the understanding that Gothic is ubiquitous in Irish literature and culture. Rather than focus exclusively on the oft-studied Irish Gothic foursome - Charles Maturin, Sheridan Le Fanu, Oscar Wilde and Bram Stoker - this companion turns attention to overlooked 'minor' figures such as Regina Maria Roche, Mrs F. C. Patrick, James Clarence Mangan and Eimear McBride. At the same time, it considers the multi-generic nature of Irish Gothic, thinking beyond fiction and, in particular, the novel, as the Gothic genre par excellence. The volume also takes account of Irish language Gothic, illuminating the ways in which the Gothic in Ireland has found and continues to find expression in different cultural and linguistic communities. Jarlath Killeen is Lecturer in Victorian Literature in the School of English, Trinity College Dublin. His publications include Imagining the Irish Child: Discourses of Childhood in Irish Anglican Writing of the Seventeenth and Eighteenth Centuries (2023) and The Emergence of Irish Gothic Fiction (2013). Christina Morin is Senior Lecturer in English and Assistant Dean of Research in the Faculty of Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences at the University of Limerick. Her publications include The Gothic Novel in Ireland, c. 1760-1829 (2018) and Charles Robert Maturin and the Haunting of Irish Romantic Fiction (2011).

    [headline]Explores a full spectrum of Gothic works broadly understood as queer, from the eighteenth century to today Queer Gothic: An Edinburgh Companion features sixteen essays that interrogate queer theory's intersections with the Gothic. By re-visiting the usefulness of the term 'queer' and pushing queer theoretical frameworks into new territory, this volume explores the ways that Gothic and queer work alongside each other: one as a marginalised genre and the other as a marginalised identity. Considering both major and lesser-known Gothic works, and ranging from the canonical (poetry and fiction) to the popular (film, video games, music, and visual and performance art), it offers queer and trans perspectives on a wide selection of Gothic modes, genres and texts from fiction such as Hugh Walpole's The Castle of Otranto to Jeanette Winterson's The Daylight Gate, films from Nosferatu to The Cured and TV shows including In the Flesh and Pose. [bio]Ardel Haefele-Thomas is the Chair of LGBT Studies at City College of San Francisco. They are the author of Introduction to Transgender Studies (Columbia University Press, 2019) and Queer Others in Victorian Gothic: Transgressing Monstrosity (University of Wales Press, 2012), and have published numerous essays on queer and trans Gothic themes.
