Eternally Yours: Jane Austen as Vampire -- 5. Conclusion: An Unlikely Confluence. aJane Austen and Vampires is the first book to investigate the literary convergence of Jane Austen and vampires in Austen fanfic after the success of Stephenie Meyer’s Twilight (2005) and Seth Grahame-Smith’s Pride and Prejudice and Zombies (2009). It asks how the shifting cultural values of Austen and the vampire have aligned, and what their connection might mean for their respective contemporary legacies. It also makes a case for reading “low brow” Austen fanfic attentively, as a way to gain meaningful insight directly from Austen fans into the tensions and anxieties surrounding contemporary notions of love, sex, femininity, and Austen’s modern currency. Offering close readings of Austen’s vampire-slaying heroines, vampiric retellings of Pride and Prejudice, and the transformation of Austen herself into a vampire, this book reveals Austen-vampire mashups as messy, complex entanglements that creatively and self-reflexively interrogate modern fantasies of vampire romance. By its unique intersection of Jane Austen with the vampire, the Gothic, fan culture and popular romance, Jane Austen and Vampires adds a new chapter to the history of Austen’s reception, for fans, students and scholars alike. 0aFiction. 0aGoth culture (Subculture).960596 0aAudiences.968880 0aLiterature, Modernx20th century. 0aLiterature, Modernx21st century.966700 0aAmericaxLiteratures.96679914aFiction Literature.24aGothic Studies.96888124aFan and Audience Studies.96888224aContemporary Literature.96670224aNorth American Literature.9668002 aSpringerLink (Online service)0 tSpringer Nature eBook08iPrinted edition:z978303149285308iPrinted edition:z9783031492877 0aPalgrave Gothic,x2634-622296888340uhttps://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-49286-0 aZDB-2-LCM aZDB-2-SXL c57000d57000
