330 .. $a Neo-Victorian Villains' is the first edited collection to examine the afterlives of
such Victorian villains as Dracula, Svengali, Dorian Gray and Jekyll and Hyde, exploring
their representation in neo-Victorian drama and fiction. In addition, 'Neo-Victorian
Villains' examines a number of villainous types, from the spirit medium and the femme
fatale to the imperial 'native' and the ventriloquist, and traces their development
from Victorian times through the twentieth century. Chapters analyse recent theatre,
films and television - from 'Ripper Street' to Marvel superhero movies - as well as
classic Hollywood depictions of the Victorian villains. In a wide-ranging opening
chapter, Benjamin Poore assesses the legacy of nineteenth-century ideas of villains
and villainy on the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. Contributors are: Sarah
Artt, Guy Barefoot, Jonathan Buckmaster, David Bullen, Helen Davies, Robert Dean,
