Applying theory to literary history and the to the present, [this book] explores intersections in nineteenth-century British representations of sexuality, gender, class and race. From such mid-century authors as Wilkie Collins, Elizabeth Gaskell and J. Sheridan Le Fanu to the fin-de-siècle writers Florence Marryat and Vernon Lee, this study examines how Victorian writers utilized gothic horror as a proverbial 'safe space' in which to grapple with taboo social and cultural issues, and considers also the continuities in our current assumptions of an age that was monolithic in its disdain for those who were 'other'.

What does it mean to read queerly? The Edinburgh Companion to Queer Reading upholds intersectional thinking to recognise the wide currency and appeal of queer studies for a new generation of scholars, activists, students and interested allies. Its four interconnecting parts – ‘transing queer readings’, ‘reading queer ecologies’, ‘queer reading as practice’ and ‘reading queer futures’ – speak to, and help to critique and foreground, expansive queer epistemologies. Contributors evocatively explore the relationships between queerness and genders, embodiments, race, narrative, methodology, history, literature, media and art. Bringing together emerging and established queer theorists, this timely collection demonstrates how germane queer readings, theories and companions are to the livelihood of interdisciplinary research and humanistic inquiry in the 2020s.
