Cultural narratives have long played a valuable role in mediating difficult and politically sensitive topics. Christina Wilkins addresses how the figure of the vampire is used in modern narratives and how it has changed from previous incarnations, particularly in American narratives. The vampire has been a cultural staple for centuries but the current conception of the figure has been arguably Americanized with the rise of the modern American vampire coinciding with the aftermath of 9/11. Wilkins investigates changes evident in cultural representations, and how they effectively mediate the altered approach to issues of trauma and identity. By investing metaphorical tropes with cultural significance, the book offers audiences the opportunity to consider new perspectives and prompt important discussions while also illuminating changes in societal attitudes. 000838491 650_0 $$aCulture$$xStudy and teaching. 000838491 650_0 $$aReligion and sociology. 000838491 650_0 $$aFilm genres. 000838491 650_0 $$aLiterature, Modern$$y20th century. 000838491 650_0 $$aLiterature, Modern$$y21st century. 000838491 650_0 $$aFiction. 000838491 650_0 $$aCultural and Media Studies. 000838491 650_0 $$aAmerican Culture. 000838491 650_0 $$aContemporary Literature. 000838491 650_0 $$aGenre. 000838491 651_0 $$aUnited States$$xStudy and teaching. 000838491 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aWilkins, Christina.$$tReligon and identity in the post-9/11 vampire.$$d[Place of publication not identified] : SPRINGER INTERNATIONAL PU, 2018$$z3319771485$$z9783319771489$$w(OCoLC)1022778061 000838491 852__ $$bebk 000838491 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-319-77149-6$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000838491 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:838491$$pGLOBAL_SET 000838491 980__ $$aEBOOK 000838491 980__ $$aBIB 000838491 982__ $$aEbook 000838491 983__ $$aOnline 000838491 994__ $$a92$$bISE
