This collection brings together scholars and artists with different institutional standings, cultural backgrounds and (inter)disciplinary interests with the aim of energizing the ongoing discussion of the generic and thematic issues related to the representation of villainy and evil in literature and media. The volume covers medieval literature to contemporary literature and also examines important aspects of evil in literature such as social and political identity, the gothic and systemic evil practices. In addition to literature, the book considers examples of villainy in film, TV and media, revealing that performance, performative control and maneuverability are the common characteristics of villains across the different literary and filmic genres and eras studied in the volume. 001438462 650_0 $$aVillains in literature. 001438462 650_0 $$aVillains in mass media. 001438462 650_0 $$aGood and evil in literature. 001438462 650_0 $$aEnglish literature$$xHistory and criticism. 001438462 650_6 $$aMéchants dans la littérature. 001438462 650_6 $$aMéchants dans les médias. 001438462 650_6 $$aLittérature anglaise$$xHistoire et critique. 001438462 655_7 $$aCriticism, interpretation, etc.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01411635 001438462 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001438462 7001_ $$aZouidi, Nizar,$$eeditor. 001438462 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z3030760545$$z9783030760540$$w(OCoLC)1245656422 001438462 852__ $$bebk 001438462 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-030-76055-7$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001438462 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1438462$$pGLOBAL_SET 001438462 980__ $$aBIB 001438462 980__ $$aEBOOK 001438462 982__ $$aEbook 001438462 983__ $$aOnline 001438462 994__ $$a92$$bISE
