“The Queer Victorian Gothic” with Brontë Schiltz Are you ready to descend into the weird world of queer Gothic writing, spooky sexology, and gay ghouls? Brontë Schiltz is an expert on all of these and so much more. We speak about the televisual Gothic and about several of Brontë’s favourite Victorian writers, including masc heartthrob Vernon Lee. If you’re into fun facts about blood transfusions and half-human, half-snake main characters, this episode is for you. References: Manchester Centre for Gothic Studies Vernon Lee (1856-1935) Ali Smith Sarah Waters Televisual gothic A Ghost Story For Christmas M.R. James “The Dead Room” Mark Gatiss The Oxford Book of Gothic Tales Chris Baldick Nigel Kneale Matthew Lewis’ The Monk Oscar Wilde’s The Picture of Dorian Gray Jen Beagin’s Big Swiss Karl Heinrich Ulrichs’ Manor Sexology “Plain Reasons Against Sodomy” Horace Walpole John Addington Symonds Dracula George Haggerty’s Queer Gothic John Singer Sargent Clementina Anstruther-Thomson Affect studies Vernon Lee’s Hauntings “A Wicked Voice” “Prince Alberic and the Snake Lady” Megan Milks Ali Smith’s Hotel World Miskatonic Institute of Horror Studies The Horse Hospital https://www.thehorsehospital.com/events/miskatonic-televisualgothic Questions you should be able to respond to after listening: - What is the Gothic? What did you know about the Gothic before listening and what did you learn from Brontë? - How is the Gothic queer? - Why is the Victorian period an interesting time to look at queerness? - How does Brontë speak about queerness in relation to illness? - What is your favourite spooky story?
