Ghosts in Love and Haunted Romantics
Original language description
In this paper, I introduced several novels by British writer Barbara Erskine which are presented as adventurous or historical romances; on the other hand, there is very significant use of fantastic elements in these books (mostly ghost or other supernatural beings). According to David Langford’s definition in Encyclopaedia of Fantasy, our paranormal romances about ghost or druidism could be held for trivial form of urban fantasy in its modern sense. For this reason, I analysed the importance of a fantastic element in these novels beside their primarily romantic (or adventurous) plot.
