Dr Isabella van Elferen is Assistant professor of Music and New Media, Dept. Media and Culture Studies, Utrecht University
Isabella van Elferen s book is original, witty, and provocative. Her approach is anything but reductive, as her epigraph Il y a plenty de hors-texte suggests. She considers music in a variety of media and her analyses are engaging and refreshingly jargon-free. This is a work that enters boldly into critical debate and is not afraid to speculate on broader philosophical issues. Van Elferen brings insights from the discipline of musicology into the field of gothic studies and, in doing so, very much enriches it. --Emma McEvoy, Westminster University"
