| Description | A podcast miniseries investigating why and how ‘monsters’ and ‘monstrosity’ have always influenced the ways in which we have imagined the Arctic and the Far North. Part 1: Introducing some of the ‘monsters’ that have, traditionally, been located in the Arctic and the Far North, Monica Germanà explores different sources to discuss whether the Gothic is an appropriate cultural reference to read these representations. Part 2: As the second episode zooms in on the West Inuit tale of ‘Skeleton Woman’ and some of the many Western adaptations it has inspired, questions of cultural appropriation and deterritorialization come to the forefront of this analysis of the Gothic, the Far North, and the Arctic. Part 3: The issue of cultural appropriation, along with considerations about landscape, language, home, and belonging are the focus of an original interview with Gerda Stevenson, award-winning writer, director, singer-songwriter, and author of ‘Skeleton Wumman’. |
