paperback. This book explores the sense in which the uncanny may be a distinctively modern experience, the way these unnerving feelings and unsettling encounters disturb the rational presumptions of the modern world view and the security of modern self-identity, just as the latter may themselves be implicated in the production of these experiences as uncanny. Editor(s): Jervis, John. Num Pages: 242 pages, biography. BIC Classification: DSA; DSBH; JFC; JM. Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 216 x 140. .
