        Gothic television

        by Helen Wheatley

        Gothic television is the first full length study of the Gothic released on British and US television. An historical account, the book combines detailed archival research with analyses of key programmes, from Mystery and Imagination and Dark Shadows, to The Woman in White and Twin Peaks, and uncovers an aspect of television drama history which has, until now, remained critically unexplored. While some have seen television as too literal or homely a medium to successfully present Gothic fictions, Gothic television argues that the genre, in its many guises, is, and has always been, well-suited to television as a domestic medium, given the genre's obsessions with haunted houses and troubled families. This book will be of interest to lecturers and students across a number of disciplines including television studies, Gothic studies, and adaptation studies, as well as to the general reader with an interest in the Gothic, and in the history of television drama.

        Walking in the dark

        James Baldwin, my father and I

        by Douglas Field

        A moving exploration of the life and work of the celebrated American writer, blending biography and memoir with literary criticism. Since James Baldwin's death in 1987, his writing - including The Fire Next Time, one of the manifestoes of the Civil Rights Movement, and Giovanni's Room, a pioneering work of gay fiction - has only grown in relevance. Douglas Field was introduced to Baldwin's essays and novels by his father, who witnessed the writer's debate with William F. Buckley at Cambridge University in 1965. In Walking in the dark, he embarks on a journey to unravel his life-long fascination and to understand why Baldwin continues to enthral us decades after his death. Tracing Baldwin's footsteps in France, the US and Switzerland, and digging into archives, Field paints an intimate portrait of the writer's life and influence. At the same time, he offers a poignant account of coming to terms with his father's Alzheimer's disease. Interweaving Baldwin's writings on family, illness, memory and place, Walking in the dark is an eloquent testament to the enduring power of great literature to illuminate our paths.

        by Ivy Pochoda, Thomas Wörtche, Stefan Lux

        Eine tödliche Jagd von Arizona bis Los Angeles Florence »Florida« Baum ist alles andere als die arme, verfolgte Unschuld, für die sie sich im Frauengefängnis von Arizona ausgibt ‒ zumindest behauptet das ihre ehemalige Zellengenossin Diosmary »Dios« Sandoval. Denn Dios kennt die Wahrheit über Floridas Verbrechen und weiß, was diese sogar vor sich selbst verbirgt: dass sie nie ein Opfer der Umstände war, eine glücklose Zuschauerin, die von einem üblen Typen auf Abwege geführt wurde. Dios weiß, dass Dunkelheit auch in Frauen lebt, selbst wenn die Welt sich weigert, sie zu sehen. Und sie ist entschlossen, Florida die Augen zu öffnen und deren wahres Ich zum Vorschein zu bringen. Als beide Frauen auf Bewährung freikommen, wird Dios' Fixierung auf Florida zu einer gefährlichen Besessenheit, und es beginnt eine tödliche Jagd von Arizona bis in die trostlosen Straßen des Los Angeles, wo Detective Lobos, auch sie eine Frau mit Gewaltpotential, schon wartet. Es kommt zu einem atemberaubenden Showdown.

        Class, work and whiteness

        Race and settler colonialism in Southern Rhodesia, 1919–79

        by Nicola Ginsburgh

        This book offers the first comprehensive history of white workers from the end of the First World War to Zimbabwean independence in 1980. It reveals how white worker identity was constituted, examines the white labouring class as an ethnically and nationally heterogeneous formation comprised of both men and women, and emphasises the active participation of white workers in the ongoing and contested production of race. White wage labourers' experiences, both as exploited workers and as part of the privileged white minority, offer insight into how race and class co-produced one another and how boundaries fundamental to settler colonialism were regulated and policed. Based on original research conducted in Zimbabwe, South Africa and the UK, this book offers a unique theoretical synthesis of work on gender, whiteness studies, labour histories, settler colonialism, Marxism, emotions and the New African Economic History.
