This ground-breaking, celebratory volume, edited by two established Gothic Studies scholars, reassesses \u003ci\u003eFrankenstein\u003c\/i\u003e's global impact for the twenty-first century across a myriad of cultures and nations, from Japan, Mexico, and Turkey, to Britain, Iraq, Europe, and North America. Offering compelling critical dissections of reincarnations of \u003ci\u003eFrankenstein\u003c\/i\u003e, a generically hybrid novel described by its early reviewers as a \"bold,\" \"bizarre,\" and \"impious\" production by a writer \"with no common powers of mind\", this collection interrogates its sustained relevance over two centuries during which it has engaged with such issues as mortality, global capitalism, gender, race, embodiment, neoliberalism, disability, technology, and the role of science. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCarol Margaret Davison\u003c\/b\u003e is Professor of English Literature at the University of Windsor, Canada and the author of \u003ci\u003eHistory of the Gothic: Gothic Literature, 1764-1824\u003c\/i\u003e (2009) and \u003ci\u003eAnti-Semitism and British Gothic Literature\u003c\/i\u003e (Palgrave Macmillan, 2004).
