Mary Robinson und die Gothic von Jerrold E. Hogle (Universität von Arizona)
32,16 €
Celebrated as an actress on the London stage (177680) and notorious as the mistress of the Prince of Wales (177980), Mary Darby Robinson had to write to support herself from the mid1780s until her death in 1800. She mastered a wide range of styles, published prolifically, and became the poetry editor of the Morning Post. As her writing developed across the 1790s, she increasingly used the motifs of Gothic fiction and drama descended from Horace Walpole's Castle of Otranto (1764). These came to pervade her late novels and poems so much that she even wrote her autobiography as a Gothic romance. She also deployed them to critique the ideologies of male dominance and the forms of writing in which they appeared.
