505 0  Unreliable narrators and "unnatural sensations" : irony 
       and conscience in Edgar Allan Poe -- "Everywhere-- a cross
       --and nastiness at the foot of it" : history, ethics, and 
       slavery in Nathaniel Hawthorne's The Marble Faun -- "Thy 
       catching nobleness unsexes me, my brother" : queer 
       knowledge in Herman Melville's Pierre -- "I was queer 
       company enough--quite as queer as the company I received" 
       : the queer gothic of Henry James and Charlotte Perkins 
       Gilman. 
520    Challenging the widely held assumption that gothic 
       literature is mainly about fear, Agnieszka Soltysik Monnet
       argues that the American Gothic, and gothic literature in 
       general, is also about judgment. Analyzing canonical works
       by Poe, Hawthorne, Melville, Gilman, and James, Monnet 
       persuasively argues that these authors' concerns about 
       slavery, gender, and sexuality tacitly inform works that 
       deal explicitly with less controversial subjects.
