Conclusion: An Unlikely Confluence. 330 $aJane Austen and Vampires is the first book to investigate the literary convergence of Jane Austen and vampires in Austen fanfic after the success of Stephenie Meyer?s Twilight (2005) and Seth Grahame-Smith?s Pride and Prejudice and Zombies (2009). It asks how the shifting cultural values of Austen and the vampire have aligned, and what their connection might mean for their respective contemporary legacies. It also makes a case for reading ?low brow? Austen fanfic attentively, as a way to gain meaningful insight directly from Austen fans into the tensions and anxieties surrounding contemporary notions of love, sex, femininity, and Austen?s modern currency. Offering close readings of Austen?s vampire-slaying heroines, vampiric retellings of Pride and Prejudice, and the transformation of Austen herself into a vampire, this book reveals Austen-vampire mashups as messy, complex entanglements that creatively and self-reflexively interrogate modern fantasies of vampire romance. By its unique intersection of Jane Austen with the vampire, the Gothic, fan culture and popular romance, Jane Austen and Vampires adds a new chapter to the history of Austen?s reception, for fans, students and scholars alike. 410 0$aPalgrave Gothic,$x2634-6222 606 $aFiction 606 $aGoth culture (Subculture) 606 $aAudiences 606 $aLiterature, Modern$y20th century 606 $aLiterature, Modern$y21st century 606 $aAmerica$xLiteratures 606 $aFiction Literature 606 $aGothic Studies 606 $aFan and Audience Studies 606 $aContemporary Literature 606 $aNorth American Literature 615 0$aFiction. 615 0$aGoth culture (Subculture) 615 0$aAudiences. 615 0$aLiterature, Modern 615 0$aLiterature, Modern 615 0$aAmerica$xLiteratures. 615 14$aFiction Literature. 615 24$aGothic Studies. 615 24$aFan and Audience Studies. 615 24$aContemporary Literature. 615 24$aNorth American Literature. 676 $a016.35960973 700 $aParisot$b Eric$01586778 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910799493503321 996 $aJane Austen and Vampires$93873782 997 $aUNINA
