Are you aware of the 'Death Positive Movement' that has been steadily growing of late? The movement promotes and contributes to famously (but not exclusively!) female-lead conversation and education surrounding the subject and industry of death. But what will the demystification of mortality mean for gothic fiction? If death, disease, and decay fail to evoke base fear (or at least mild unease!) in audiences, will gothic fiction still be possible? What do you think? #generallygothic #gothic #gothicfuture #gothicliterature #academic #death #dead #mortality #deathpositive #deathpositivemovement #literaryhistory #literature #socialmovement #books #bookworm #bookstagram #waterstones #pastmortems #carlavalentine #pastmortemslifeanddeathbehindmortuarydoors
