- The research for this monograph spanned seven years and was supported by an institutional fellowship. Interdisciplinary in scope yet tightly framed by postmodern subjectivity and American history, the 105,000-word monograph presents a sustained new reading of the postmodern vampire in literature, film, screen culture and aesthetics, and includes the recuperation of neglected texts and materials, in order to examine the complex, multi-focal emergence of the articulate undead. Drawing upon Gothic Studies, American Studies, Film Studies, Postmodern theory, Presidential history and White House archival documents, this extended scholarly analysis foregrounds a corroborative cultural teratology across nine presidential administrations.
