“Only a Light Wreath of The New-Fallen Snow”?: Ecogothic Tropes and the Diffractive Gaze in Nathaniel Hawthorne’s “The Snow-Image” by Paulina Ambroży

“…The analytical framework is taken from Andrew Smith and William Hughes’ edited collection Ecogothic (2013), in which several scholars work towards a definition of an environmentally conscious variety of the gothic genre.

“…As an example, this article analyzes Shangay (2004) by José María Muscari, which stages with a critical sight the social and racial prejudices of Argentine middle class by means of the analogy between Far East culture (or what is usually taken by such) and homoerotism. The sainete-genre (deeply rooted in the Argentine theatrical tradition) is thus re-interpreted by means of parodical procedures. …”
