Description
8vo, hardcover, 226pp.This book is an account of the history and continuation of plague as a potent metaphor since the disease ceased to be an epidemic threat in Western Europe, engaging with twentieth-century critiques of fascism, anti-Semitic rhetoric, the Oedipal legacy of psychoanalysis and its reception, and film spectatorship and the zombie genre. JENNIFER COOKE is Lecturer in English in the Department of English and Drama at Loughborough University, UK.
