Publisher's Synopsis

The Supernatural In Modern English Fiction is a literary analysis book written by Dorothy Scarborough. It explores the use of supernatural elements in modern English fiction, particularly in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The book discusses the role of the supernatural in popular works of fiction by authors such as Bram Stoker, H.G. Wells, and Arthur Machen, as well as lesser-known writers of the time. Scarborough examines the ways in which these authors used supernatural elements to explore themes such as morality, religion, and the human psyche. The book also delves into the historical and cultural contexts that influenced the use of the supernatural in literature during this time period. Overall, The Supernatural In Modern English Fiction provides a comprehensive analysis of the role of the supernatural in modern English fiction and its impact on the literary world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
