| Zusammenfassung: | The Gothic imagination, that dark predilection for horrors and terrors, spectres and sprites, occupies a prominent place in contemporary Western culture. First given fictional expression in Horace Walpole's 'The Castle of Otranto' of 1764, the Gothic mode has continued to haunt literature, fine art, music, film and fashion ever since its heyday in Britain in the 1790s. This book, which accompanies a major exhibition at the British Library, is a collection of essays that trace the numerous meanings and manifestations of the Gothic across time, tracking its prominent shifts and mutations from its eighteenth-century origins, through the Victorian period, and into the present day. Edited and introduced by Dale Townshend, and consisting of original contributions by Nick Groom, Angela Wright, Alexandra Warwick, Andrew Smith, Lucie Armitt and Catherine Spooner, this book provides a compelling and comprehensive overview of the Gothic imagination over the past 250 years.0Exhibition: British Library, London, UK (3.10.2014-20.1.2015) |

The Oothic imagination, that dark predilection
for horrors and terrors, spectres and sprites,
occupies a prominent place in contemporary
Western culture.
Gothic literature began as a challenge to
the rational certainties of the Enlightenment.
By exploring the harsh romance of the
medieval past with its ruined castles and
abbeys, its wild landscapes and fascination
with the supernatural, Gothic writers placed
imagination firmly at the heart of their work.
The Gothic has continued to haunt literature,
fine art, music, film and fashion ever since
its heyday in Britain in the 1790s. This book,
which accompanies a major exhibition at the
British Library, traces the numerous meanings
and manifestations of the Gothic across time,
tracking its shifts and mutations from its
eighteenth-century origins, through the
Victorian period, and into the present day.

Terror &nd
Wonder expiores all aspects of the Gothic
world. Iconic works, including
ЛЛагу
Shelley s
Frankenstein
,
Bram
Stoker s DrsLczula., the sinister
fairy tales of Angela Garter and the modern
horrors of Glive Barker, highlight the ways in
which contemporary fears have been addressed
by successive generations of Gothic writers.
Other rare and fascinating exhibits, including
hitherto overlooked manuscripts and even a
real-life vampire-slaying kit, add colour and
drama to the story.
Edited and introduced by Dale Townshend,
and with original essays by major scholars
of the Gothic, Terror a.nd Wonder provides
a compelling and comprehensive overview of
the Gothic imagination over the past 25O years.
