The Literature of Terror: the Modern Gothic is the second volume in David Punter's impressive survey of gothic writing covering over two centuries. This long awaited second edition has been expanded to take into account the latest critical research, and is now published in two volumes. Volume One covers the period from 1765 to the Edwardian age while Volume Two discusses modern gothic, starting with the 'decadent' gothic writing of Oscar Wilde and continuing through the twentieth century.

Features:

* The two volumes provide the most up-to-date and comprehensive introduction to gothic and related terror writing across the English language as a whole.

* Respected author - the text was originally published in 1980 to wide acclaim and following its publication, critical interest in gothic writing has risen substantially.

* Broad scope of the study - final chapter considers the topical issue of the relationship between cultural material and sociopathic behaviour.
