Gothic Q&A

I’ve just come from a very insightful panel at the House of the Seven Gables which discussed Gothic literature and Second Life.

Kabarax Ninetails, who led the discussion, posed a series of questions to the three highly qualified panelists: Desideria Stockton, Eloise Pasteur, and Zenobia Paine. Each of the panelists is an expert in her field. Desideria, an English professor, is one of the creators of the Literature Alive! site in Second Life; Eloise, a professional Second Life designer and constructor, built Seton Hall’s House of the Seven Gables; and Zenobia, chair of the English department at Seton Hall, is instrumental in Seton Hall’s involvement in Second Life.

The questions ranged from general inquiries about Gothic literature to the building of our house in Second Life. The audience members were also given a chance to ask their own questions about the Gothic, Second Life, and literature in general. A lot of information was covered in the hour-long session, and it was unfortunate that it had to end!

Thanks to Kabarax Ninetails for leading an insightful discussion!
