My chapter 'The Gothic Nature of Archives and the Work of M.R James and Henry James' in Literature, the Gothic and the Reconstruction of History: The Past as Nightmare, edited by Neil Cocks and Daniel Renshaw. The chapter explores the archival aspects of the short stories of M.R. James and of Henry James' The Turn of the Screw.
This is a revised and expanded version of a paper on Archives as Gothic Spaces that I presented online at the University of Reading's 'The Past as Nightmare' conference in 2022.
