The Gothic has always been interested in strange utterances and unsettling voices, from half-heard ghostly murmurings to the terrible cries of the monstrous nonhuman. Gothic Utterance offers the first book-length study of the role such voices play in the Gothic tradition, exploring their prominence and importance in the literature produced in America between the Revolutionary War and the close of the nineteenth century. This book argues that the American Gothic foregrounds the overpowering effect and meaning of the voices of those on the margins of society, as well as the ethical charge of our encounter with such voices."-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references (pages 229-241) and index. 505 0 $a Introduction: American Biloquism -- Part I: Gothic Utterance and Selfhood -- Deadly Locution and Delphic Shrieks: Haunted Significance and the Self -- Cries and Whispers: Spectral Voice, Community and Gothic Consciousness -- Part II: Voices, Soundscapes, Histories -- Howls and Echoes: Frontier Gothic and the Voice of the Wilderness -- (Dis)embodied Utterance and the Peripatetic Voice: Hearing the Haunted Plantation -- Squawking Soldiers and the Babbling Corpse: War-torn Words and Civil War Gothic -- Conclusion: Quoth the Gothic. 648 7 $a 1783-1899 $2 fast 650 0 $a Gothic revival (Literature) $z United States $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a Gothic fiction (Literary genre), American $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a American literature $y 1783-1850 $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a American literature $y 19th century $x History and cricitism. 650 0 $a Dead in literature. 650 0 $a Voice in literature. 650 7 $a Gothic fiction (Literary genre), American. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01745573 650 7 $a American literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00807113 650 7 $a Dead in literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00888420 650 7 $a Gothic revival (Literature) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00945084 650 7 $a Voice in literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01168771 651 7 $a United States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 655 7 $a Criticism, interpretation, etc. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411635 776 08 $i ebook version : $z 9781786837561 830 0 $a Gothic literary studies. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117024049.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=3DDE85B8072811ED93C2E7E557ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
