Both a warning and a demonstration, the monster as myth and metaphor provides an articulation of human imagination that toys with the permissible and impermissible. Monsters from zombies to cuddly cartoon characters, emerging from sewers, from pages of literature, propaganda posters, movies and heavy metal, all are covered in this challenging, scholarly collection. This volume the third in the series presents a marvellous collection of studies on the metaphor of the monster in literature, cinema, music, culture, philosophy, history and politics. Both historical reflection and concerns of our time are addressed with clarity and written in an accessible manner providing appeal for the scholar and lay reader alike. This eclectic collection will be of interest to academics and students working in a range of disciplines, such as cultural studies, film studies, political theory, philosophy and literature studies. 410 0$aAt the interface/probing the boundaries ;$vv. 38. 606 $aAnimals, Mythical 606 $aMonsters in art 606 $aMonsters in literature 606 $aMonsters in mass media 606 $aMonsters in motion pictures 615 0$aAnimals, Mythical. 615 0$aMonsters in art. 615 0$aMonsters in literature. 615 0$aMonsters in mass media. 615 0$aMonsters in motion pictures. 676 $a398.2454 701 $aScott$b Niall$01611802 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910824001203321 996 $aMonsters and the monstrous$93940239 997 $aUNINA
