Introduction / Jo Collins and John Jervis -- Uncanny presences / John Jervis -- Night and theuncanny / Elisabeth Bronfen -- Uncanny reflections, modern illusions : sighting the modern optical uncanny / Tom Gunning -- As it happened...Borderline, the uncanny and the cosmopolitan /James Donald-- Access denied : memory and resistance in the contemporary ghost film / Scott Brewster -- The uncanny after Freud : the contemporary trauma subject and the fiction of Stephen King / Roger Luckhurst--"Neurotic men" and a spectral woman : Freud, Jung and Sabina Spielrein / Jo Collins -- The urban uncanny : the city, the subject, and ghostly modernity / Julian Wolfreys -- Profane illuminations, delicate and mysterious flames : mass culture and uncanny gnosis / Michael Saler -- Terrorism and theuncanny, or, the caves of Tora-Bora / David Punter --"On the psychology of the uncanny" (1906) : ErnstJentsch / translatedby Roy Sellars.

The uncanny is an experience of disorientation, of something disturbing, so that our ordinaryworld seems suddenly strange, eerie. We ask -where does the uncanny come from? Why has it become a favourite figurefor our simultaneous experience of the present as homeless and the past as haunting?And could it be that the uncanny is a peculiarly modern experience? Challenging conventional disciplinary boundaries, this wide-ranging and illuminating collection of essays by scholars in literary,film and cultural studies pursues these issues through the modern city, the night, gender, trauma, modernism, early cinema, the ghost film, contemporary fiction, and terrorism. Opening up the debate beyond Freud,the essays suggest that the uncanny both testifies to a distinctive sensibility, calling for a cultural aesthetics of the modern experience, while inevitably subverting the serene confidence of any explanatory framework that seeks to capture it.
