Montague Rhodes James (1862-1936) is best remembered for redefining the ghost story for a new century. James subverted the Gothic tradition, setting his stories in commonplace, contemporary settings. He also worked as a medievalist scholar and served as provost of King s College, Cambridge and, later, Eton College. His published collections include Stories of an Antiquary (1904), More Stories of an Antiquary (1911), A Thin Ghost and Others (1919), A Warning to the Curious (1925) and Collected Ghost Stories (1931).
