Punk & Post-Punk 13.2 is out now! Special Issue

Intellect is pleased to present Punk & Post-Punk 13.2!

Special Issue: ‘Goth Histories’

The collected articles hope to give some sense of the different ways by which the Gothic retains a punk-inflected presence into the twenty-first century. Until recently, Goth’s history was largely ignored; the emphasis was concentrated on contemporary meanings and manifestations. In many ways, it still is. Unlike certain other subcultures, Goth continues to evolve through time, reimagining and adapting its dark aesthetic to wider cultural and technological shifts. Indeed, the continued vibrancy of Goth and Gothic culture deserves recognition and serves as a prompt for this Special Issue.
