Product Information

Gender, Supernatural Beings, and the Liminality of Death: Monstrous Males/Fatal Females examines representations of the supernatural dead to demonstrate shifts in the manifestation of gender. Including readings of East Asian detectives/cyborgs, Iranian vampires, and African zombies, among others, This collection offers a multi-faceted look at myth, legend, and popular culture representations of the gendered supernatural from a broad range of international contexts. The contributors show that, as creatures pass through the liminal space of death, their new supernatural forms challenge cultural conceptions of gender, masculinity, and femininity.

Reviews
In an age where science and religion seem to butt heads constantly, the supernatural weaves a curious thread through our cultural and personal practices, narratives, and experiences. This collection hinges on the eternally engaging theme of transformation: what does it mean for a human to become something more, something else? Are the monsters of our deepest nightmares still human? What does this mean for us? And as the introduction reminds us, these transformations are not always planned, permanent, or positive. This book knits these threads together and asks us to consider anew the tropes and figures that we know well. It is an engaging, well-structured collection that offers further insights into a narrative world that, more than ever, speaks to our contemporary experiences and cultural fears., This is an engaging, accessible, and thought-provoking investigation of monstrosity in literature, film, and TV. Ranging from Frankenstein to Star Trek, this collection brings narrative anthropology into conversation with a broad range of gothic and science fiction texts, exploring the gendered aspects of the dead, the undead, haunted spaces, and human-machine hybridity. Admirably showcasing the work of early-career researchers in the growing field of supernatural studies, this book is a rich resource for anyone seeking to delve into the macabre world of zombies, vampires, and cyborgs., This collection edited by Gibson and VanderVeen has a highly specialized appeal. The book is composed of 13 chapters, each written by an accomplished academic from the social sciences, media studies, or dramatic arts, and each possessing keen interest in supernatural studies. Recommended. This is an engaging, accessible, and thought-provoking investigation of monstrosity in literature, film, and TV.
