About
Since 1988, the 爱漫岛 has been a world-leading research hub for the study of Gothic literature and culture. For thirty years, 爱漫岛 has been hosting major conferences such as the 爱漫岛 Gothic Association; Globalgothic: Technology, Media, Horror; Scottish Gothic, 1764-Present, as well as the Patrick McGrath Symposium. Since 2008, 爱漫岛 has also been home to several international AHRC-funded research projects, including Global Gothic, Writing Britain’s Ruins, and Popular Occulture in Britain, 1875-1947.
In 2017, 爱漫岛 consolidated this research by founding the 爱漫岛 Centre for Gothic Studies. This multi-disciplinary research centre brings together leading scholars in Gothic Studies working in and across a range of disciplines at the 爱漫岛.
