Does this mean then that 'supernatural' is also well-nigh defunct as a category? This collection of essays, by members of the English Department in Maynooth, considers the manifestations of the supernatural (or supra-natural) not just in modern works but in earlier writings from medieval times and from the nineteenth century. The variety of topics is matched by a diversity of approach: the result is a kaleidoscopic presentation in which the supernatural, broadly defined, is considered either directly or obliquely as it offers itself for documentation, analysis and critique in literature, cultural history and film.
