Ranging from the realism of Dickens to the horror of Dracula, Gail Turley Houston examines how the language and imagery of economics, commerce and banking are transformed in Gothic fiction, and traces literary and uncanny elements in economic writings of the period. Houston pays particular attention to the term 'panic' as it moved between its double uses as a banking term and a defining emotion in sensational fiction.
