The collection opens with papers touching on literary form, history, lineation, and narrative in Blake\u0026amp;#x27;s work, establishing contact with major topics in Gothic studies. Then refines its focus to Blake\u0026amp;#x27;s bloody, nervous bodies, through which he explores various kinds of Gothic horror related to reproduction, anatomy, sexuality, affect, and materiality. Rather than transcendent images, this collection attends to Blake\u0026amp;#x27;s \u0026amp;#x27;dark visions of torment\u0026amp;#x27;.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ships in 10 to 15 days","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47920541040798,"sku":"ING-9781526166968","price":45.78,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0400\/9043\/5742\/files\/9781526166968.jpg?v=1782823363","url":"https:\/\/classicbargains.com.au\/products\/9781526166968","provider":"Classic Bargains Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
