- The book provides the first critical analysis of representations of death and dying in Gothic texts from the period. The project required an analysis of a wide range of primary material including poems, short stories, and novels as well as contemporaneous material on theories of death and dying, the history of emotions, and critical theory. The project involved the collection and analysis of a large body of material and the bibliography lists 185 primary and secondary sources.
