Angela Carter's Pasts
Editat de Sarah Gamble, Anna Watzen Limba Engleză Paperback – 17 sep 2026
Examining a broad range of Carter's work (novels, short stories, poetry, as well as stage plays), the essays in this collection explore a stimulating selection of topics, including folk song, medieval literature, and the occult. Frequently drawing on newly available archival material, the volume investigates the ways in which Carter wove allusions into her own narratives, creating a lively and challenging dialogue with the cultural materials of the past and present.
This volume will appeal both to scholars and students of contemporary women's writing, critical theory, gender studies, and British fiction.
