{"product_id":"the-gothic-body-kelly-hurley-9780521607117","title":"The Gothic Body: Sexuality, Materialism, and Degeneration at the Fin de Si鐵le","description":"This book accounts for the resurgence of Gothic, and its immense popularity, during the British fin de si鐵le. In particular, Kelly Hurley explores a key scenario that haunts the genre: the loss of a unified and stable human identity, and the emergence of a chaotic and transformative \"abhuman\" identity in its place. Gothic is revealed as a highly productive and speculative genre, strongly indebted to nineteenth-century scientific, medical and social theories, including evolutionism, criminal anthropology and degeneration theory.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Kelly Hurley\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0521607116\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780521607117\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/29\/2004\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 220\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 5.90w x 0.50d","brand":"Kelly Hurley","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43946729472255,"sku":"9780521607117","price":49.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_5a7684eb-7fc3-4660-988b-43cf3846fd3d.jpg?v=1681514805","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-gothic-body-kelly-hurley-9780521607117","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
