Produktinformasjon
How can we be genuinely frightened of vampires, though we know they don't
exist? How is it that people find pleasure in being scared out of their wits?
Carroll presents the first philosophical and aesthetic analysis of the horror
genre.For nearly two decades, the horror genre has been a major popular
entertainment and has dominated the publishing and film industries. Yet there
exists no philosophical examination of the genre - the time for its aesthetic
analysis is ripe. Carroll discusses the nature of horror and explores the most
characteristic narrative structures of the genre. He also attempts to explain
how we can be genuinely frightened by vampires and the like, though we know
they do not exist; and tries to account for how people can find pleasure in
having the very wits scared out of them. He concludes with speculations about
the present day popularity of the genre.
