Transgenerational haunting : the subject as other -- Discourse and its other : the figural and the real -- Gothic as poetics -- The melancholy crypt of Frankenstein -- Secretions and secretaries : the secret ofDracula -- The raising of the dead : art and melancholy.

Analysing the major texts of the Gothic (including Frankenstein, Dracula and The Mysteries ofUdolpho) this fascinating bookproposes three new ways of understanding the Gothic in terms of "haunting": Firstly, the Gothic haunts writing rather than simply writing about haunting. A force of chaosthat disrupts the rules of representation inhabits gothicwriting. It manifests itself in the form of cliches, anachronisms, jarring images, or punning that go against the grain of the intended linearmeaning of the text. Secondly, the Gothic transmits unspoken secrets that are conveyed without being stated. Abraham and Torok's groundbreaking concepts of cryptonymy and phantomatic transmission areextensivelyused in connection with the Gothic to show how the repressed that returns is not simplythe subject's but someone else's secret. Thirdly, this book reads the Gothic in terms of clinical melancholy. It identifies in the texts' fantasies of incorporation or resurrection and other narcissistic devices by which death is magically neglected.
