Author: Saggini, Francesca Brand: Routledge Edition: 1 Number Of Pages: 312 Release Date: 12-12-2019 Details: Product Description In this ground-breaking study Francesca Saggini explores the relationship between the late eighteenth-century novel and the theatre, arguing that the implicit theatricality of the Gothic novel made it an obvious source from which dramatists could take ideas. Similarly, elements of the theatre provided inspiration to novelists. Saggini opens her study with a very useful and persuasive overview of the themes and forms of Gothic drama. In her view, stage appropriation is the textual threshold in which novelistic and dramatic/ performative texts overlap on and disseminate through each other. She examines in details the use of three specific aspects of Gothic dramatic language as recorded by both novel and drama: music, lighting, and scene design. The following chapters, informed by semiotic and narrative theory, closely examine the stage appropriations respectively in and of the Gothic novel, particularly, though not exclusively, the representation of the supernatural in Ann Radcliffe and Matthew G. Lewis. Boaden?s successful Gothic drama Fontainville Forest challenges a central aspect of Radcliffe?s poetics: her reliance on the so-called explained supernatural and puts it context by looking at contemporary stage presentations of the supernatural as offered for instance in Hamlet. The final part of the study frames Lewis?s representation of the supernatural in The Monk within the contemporary mechanics of staging and discusses the novel in relation to contemporary stage presentation and in the context of Romantic harlequinades and spectacular visual exhibits. Saggini makes a convincing argument for a transmedial and highly cooperative reading of Gothic texts and spectacles. Her approach does not seek to displace the novel or ?the text? from modern perceptions of the Gothic, but wants to open the genre to plural and anti-hierarchical forms of reading and to recognise its resourcefulness in appropriating theatrical t Review Shortlisted for The Society for the Study of English Book Awards 2016, Literatures in the English Language, Category A 'Saggini's articulation is clear, and her reasoning is innovative and complex? Saggini has researched her topic deeply, and the resulting book represents a thoughtful analysis of the practices and negotiations activated by the Gothic stage.' - Emily Hodgson Anderson, University of Southern California, Review 19 'By guiding the reader through the history and development of Gothic drama in the early sections of the book, Saggini effectively sets the scene of the genre?s background, before convincingly putting forward her argument that through a cultural network of stage theatricals and novel-writing, Gothic dramas inspired Gothic novelists.? - Sarah A. Winter, Studies in Gothic Fiction, Volume 4 About the Author Francesca Saggini is Associate Professor of English Literature at the Università della Tuscia (Viterbo), Italy. She is the award-winning author of Backstage in the Novel: Frances Burney and the Theater Arts (Walken Cowen Memorial Prize for an outstanding work in eighteenth-century studies, 2012) and La messinscena dell?identità. Teatro e teatralità nel romanzo inglese del Settecento (Premio ?Mario di Nola? awarded by the Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei, 2005). Francesca?s main field of research is popular culture, in particular adaptations and afterlives. She has published essays and chapters on, among others, Inchbald, Austen, the castrati in Europe, the eighteenth-century on film, Dickens, Victorian melodrama, Stocker, Doyle, Stevenson, vampire fiction and the representation of ghosts.

Pigeonhouse Books is a private Dublin archive of the unusual and the hard to find. We have served readers, researchers and people curious about our world since 2016.
Founded by an experienced editor and history graduate, our small family-run operation is like having the keys to the research library or the enthusiast's den. We specialise in finding and making available specialist items essential to the researcher, scientist, academic, collector, student, hobbyist, layperson and – most importantly – the reader, whatever their interests and wherever they may be in the world.
Pigeonhouse is a colloquial name pointing to the red and white towers of the former Poolbeg Generating Station at the estuary of the River Liffey - an icon of Dublin for those who arrive or leave, and a newfound symbol of arty modernism in Ireland.
The private Pigeonhouse warehouse is located nearby and is home to nearly 25,000 books and moving-image, audio and material-culture resources. Lost media – VHS, magazines, ephemera and never-digitised material – is a personal quest.
All of these can be dispatched worldwide here on this site via PigeonhouseBooks.com, and via your local Amazon/AbeBooks/Biblio outlet.
Visitors are always welcome by appointment at Parliament Street in Dublin 2, the city of Joyce and a UNESCO City of Literature. Please drop us a line in advance: all are very welcome to inspect and collect any item in our catalogue in person.
