Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Focusing on women's short supernatural fiction from the first wave of feminism to the post-suffrage era, the book examines how literary ghosts reflect women's evolving roles. It highlights haunted house narratives by Charlotte Riddell and Margaret Oliphant that reveal the complexities of middle-class wealth. Additionally, Female Gothic tales by Mary Elizabeth Braddon and Edith Nesbit challenge the male portrayal of female death. The work also addresses the 'Marriage Question' in colonial contexts and critiques gender relations in post-World War I stories, reshaping literary histories of ghost stories.
