Description

With the success of novels such as The Shadow of the Wind and films such as The Others, contemporary Spanish culture has contributed a great deal to the imagery and experience of the Gothic, although contributions of this sort are not always recognised as being specifically Spanish in origin. Contemporary Spanish Gothic is the first book to study how the Gothic mode intersects with cultural production in Spain today, considering some of the ways in which such production feeds off and simultaneously feeds into Gothic production more widely.

Examining the works of writers and filmmakers like Carlos Ruiz Zafón, Arturo Pérez-Reverte, Pedro Almodóvar and Alejandro Amenábar, as well as the further reaches of Spanish Gothic influence in the Twilight film series, the book considers images and themes including the mad surgeon and the vulnerable body, the role of the haunted house and the heritage biopics of Francisco de Goya.
