Description
Goth Undead Subculture by Michael Bibby and Lauren M. E. Goodlad is a collection of scholarly essays exploring the enduring goth subculture. Spanning multiple disciplines, including music, fashion, literature, and aesthetics, this volume delves into the subculture's complexities, from its melancholy and spirituality to its impact on class, race, and gender. The book features contributions from various experts, including those who have been part of the subculture themselves, offering a rich history of goth and its distinctive features. Essays examine iconic texts such as Bram Stoker's Dracula and James O'Barr's The Crow, as well as gothic music and sexuality. With a focus on resistance, consumerism, and post-subculture studies, this collection provides a nuanced understanding of the goth subculture. Featuring interviews, analyses, and discussions, Goth Undead Subculture is an in-depth exploration of a cultural phenomenon that has haunted postmodern culture and society since its emergence in the late 1970s.
