In the last decade of the eighteenth century, as Britain went to war again with France, this time in the wake of revolution, the continuing connections between Gothic literature and France through the realms of translation, adaptation and unacknowledged borrowing led to strong suspicions of Gothic literature taking on a subversive role in diminishing British patriotism. Angela Wright explores the development of Gothic literature in Britain in the context of the fraught relationship between Britain and France, offering fresh perspectives on the works of Walpole, Radcliffe, 'Monk' Lewis and their contemporaries."--Publisher's website. 505 0 $a The mysterious author Horace Walpole -- The translator cloak'd: Sophia Lee, Clara Reeve and Charlotte Smith -- Versions of Gothic and terror -- The castle under threat: Ann Radcliffe's system and the romance of Europe -- 'The Order Disorder'd': French convents and British liberty -- Conclusion: afterlives. 650 0 $a Gothic fiction (Literary genre), English $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a Romanticism $z Great Britain. 650 0 $a Romanticism $z France. 650 0 $a Comparative literature $x English and French. 650 0 $a Comparative literature $x French and English. 650 0 $a Gothic revival (Literature) 650 07 $a Englisch. $0 (DE-588)4014777-0 $2 gnd 650 07 $a FranzoÌsisch. $0 (DE-588)4113615-9 $2 gnd 650 07 $a Gothic novel. $0 (DE-588)4157930-6 $2 gnd 650 07 $a Rezeption. $0 (DE-588)4049716-1 $2 gnd 650 07 $a Schauerliteratur. $0 (DE-588)4179419-9 $2 gnd 830 0 $a Cambridge studies in Romanticism ; $v 99. 941 $a 2 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20180103044118.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20160826092215.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=4297A4FA45E811E3A4FDE4CADAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
