Romanticism and the Gothic: Genre, Reception, and Canon Formation by Michael Gamer
Requirements: PDF Reader, 1.2MB
Overview: This is the first full-length study to examine the links between high Romantic literature and what has often been thought of as a merely popular genre–the Gothic. Michael Gamer analyzes how and why Romantic writers drew on Gothic conventions while, at the same time, denying their influence in order to claim critical respectability. He shows how the reception of Gothic literature played a fundamental role in the development of Romanticism as an ideology, tracing the politics of reading, writing and reception at the end of the eighteenth century.
