    A Gothic heterotopia: four Anglophone responses to Venice by John Thieme

    Published 2024-10-01
    “…It pursues this line of thinking in relation to four Anglophone representations of Venice: the recent film A Haunting in Venice (2023), directed by Kenneth Branagh and scripted by Michael Green, which is very loosely adapted from Agatha Christie’s Hallowe’en Party (1969), and which subjects the whodunnit genre to a Gothic makeover, Daphne du Maurier’s short story ‘Don’t Look Now’ (1971) and Nicolas Roeg’s film adaptation (1973) of it, in which the Gothic particularly manifests itself in the form of psychic precognition, and Amitav Ghosh’s novel Gun Island (2019), in which an ostensibly realistic novel is infiltrated by recurrent paranormal elements, several of which are occasioned by the ‘unnaturalness’ of climate change. …”

    Published 2009-12-01
    “…Cet article s’intéresse à plusieurs romans contemporains où la ville est à la fois représentée comme localement concrète et globalement abstraite—comme un espace d’expérience sensuelle mais aussi comme un référent sémiotique où se rencontrent des forces nouvelles et désincarnées.
