      abstract = {This volume examines contemporary reformulations of the  'Final Girl' in film, TV, literature and comic, expanding  the discussion of the trope beyond the slasher subgenre.  Focusing specifically on popular texts that emerged in the  21st century, the volume asks: What is the sociocultural  context that facilitated the remarkable proliferation of  the Final Girls? What kinds of stories are told in these  narratives and can they help us make sense of feminism?  What are the roles of literature and media in the  reconsiderations of Carol J. Clover's term of thirty years  ago and how does this term continue to inform our  understanding of popular culture? The contributors to this  collection take up these concerns from diverse perspectives  and with different answers, notably spanning theories of  genre, posthumanism, gender, sexuality and race, as well as  audience reception and spectatorship.},
