    摘要、提要註: This rich and varied collection of essays makes a timely contribution to critical debates about the Female Gothic, a popular but contested area of literary studies. The contributors revisit keyGothic themes - gender, race, the body, monstrosity, metaphor and motherhood - to open up new directions for criticism, while two essays on Scottish and WelshGothic represent the latest work in thesenew areas. Writers discussedrange from central figures such as Ann Radcliffe, Charlotte Bronët, andAngela Carter, and neglected figures like the authors of the 'Northanger novels', to writers who are rarely discussed as 'Gothic' such as Iris Murdoch, Toni Morrison and Iain Banks. An Introduction surveying criticism on the Female Gothic and an essay on the institutionalisation ofGothic Studies provide invaluable contextualisation.
