Ghostly Aesthetics, Mourning, and Spectral Resistance Fantasies in Literary Modernism

Matt Foley

Literary Criticism / Modern / 20th Century

Focuses on several of the key literary forms of the period – including the short story, Imagist poetry, and narratives of interiority in the novel

Reads both canonical texts and overlooked works
Matt Foley has particular research interests in modernism, the Gothic, the ghost story and literary acoustics. From 2015-2017, he held a Lectureship at the University of Stirling, UK, where he taught on a range of courses in modern and contemporary literature. He is currently writing on a diverse range of topics, including the acoustics of Gothic literature and the fiction of Michel Faber and Patrick McGrath.
