Gothic Naturalism
Although naturalism and the Gothic are apparently opposed literary modes—one drawing on the natural and social sciences, the other on the supernatural—they have both been used to represent scenes of stark injustice in American life. With a special focus on how economic and racial justice issues are negotiated in fiction, this course surveys the powerful blend of Gothic and naturalist styles in U.S. literature from the industrial novel of the 1860s until the rise of postmodernism in the 1970s.
