Title: ‘Science Fiction and Gothic?… It Is Strange that the Genres Should Cross at All’: In Conclusion — Understanding Gothic Science Fiction
Abstract: From the outset the intention of this book has been to prove that Gothic science fiction is a fully established and credible genre; that it exists independently of both Gothic and science fiction, and that it has its own set of tropes and conventions that mark it out as such. That is not to say that the genre of Gothic science fiction does not bear traces of its Gothic and science fiction ancestry, of course it does, but rather that it has picked a number of stylistic features and used these to generate a distinct new genre.
