Hardcover. Condizione: New. In The Cartographers of Hell, Alok Bhalla argues that the Gothic novel is neither located in some supernal space beyond the profane world in which human beings conduct their daily lives nor is it lost in some a historic and mythic time, but is grounded in the economic, social, political and moral conditions of England in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. After a critical analysis of some modern theories about Gothicism, Alok Bhalla puts forward the startling thesis that the Gothic novel rejects pastoral nostalgias and religious presuppositions as demonic illusions, and concerns itself with those conditions of inequality, power and labour that define the material lives of human beings. Bhalla's arguments are supported by fine and sensitive readings of novels by Horace Walpole, Ann Radcliffe, Matthew Gregory Lewis, Charles Robert Maturin, Mary Shelley, James Hogg, and others.
