Gothic Literature and the place that Daphne du Maurier’s Rebecca takes in the genre

Dr Serena Trowbridge has been working with her final year students at Birmingham City University studying a module on Gothic Literature.  Five of the students have generously agreed to have their papers on the subject reproduced in our new article for the website. 

Each essay is a fine piece of writing, and, as a group, they provide a broad look at Gothic Literature and the place that Daphne du Maurier’s Rebecca takes in that genre.
