This groundbreaking collection of new essays presents critical reflections on teaching horror film and fiction in many different ways and in a variety of academic settings--from cultural theory to film studies; from women's and gender studies to postcolonialism; from critical thinking seminars on the paranormal to the timeless classics of English horror literature.

Includes a foreword by celebrated horror writer Glen Hirshberg.Hinweis: Dieser Artikel kann nur an eine deutsche Lieferadresse ausgeliefert werden.
