This book examines a wide range of Australian films to trace their Gothic resemblances, characteristics and meanings. Concentrating on the occurrence of Gothic motifs, characters, landscapes and narratives, it argues for the recognition and relevance of a coherent Gothic heritage in Australian film. Considering a plethora of Gothic representatives in relation to four consistent and illuminating continuities (images of the family, ideas of monstrosity, generic hybridity and the occurrence of the sublime), this study investigates the appearance and asserts the significance of Australian Gothic films within their national, cultural, literary and cinematic traditions.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBItem Height: 216mmItem Length: 138mmAuthor: Jonathan RaynerGenre: Films & TVBook Series: Gothic Literary StudiesTopic: Fiction, Horror, Literary CriticismRelease Year: 2022 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
