A very good analysis! As you talked of Darwin's theory, it reminded me of HG Well's "Time Machine," which, in of itself, is considered to be sci-fi. But, it also parallels Frankenstein and the speculation of how humans came to be through scientific means as you were saying. (Or, in Well's story, what the future might look like as evolution plays out). Just interesting how ideas can bleed so easily throughout the ages and how they are all so intertwined. Some of what Wells includes as Gothic elements are a confined space (underground) as well as feelings of discomfort at the brute-like "humans" living in the underground spaces, much like what one first feels at encountering Frankenstein's monster. Edit: you mentioned "The Yellow Wallpaper!???" Ahhh!!! I just ordered the story not that long ago, as it kept coming up, and I had to know what the hype was about. And I am obsessed!!!! Love that little book to pieces! It was such a short, easy read, too.
That was enjoyable. I think you could have also included the novella 'Justine' by the Marquis de Sade and the novel 'Salammbo' by Flaubert. Talk about heroines in distress!
This was awesome. Many thanks for making this. Really thorough introduction and i really reckon ima go check these novels out. Dorian Grey was my gateway novel!!! Looking forward to more releases from your channel!!
That wasn’t how The Yellow Wallpaper grabbed me. It seemed like a story about the harm of the patriarchy and the medical practices of the time against a woman’s mental health.

Very good job. . .but fact check: Glenarvon was written by Lady Caroline Lamb, not Claire Claremont.
classic reply guy
Thank you so much! The Brontes are my favorite authors and Gothic literature as a whole has been my desired area of study! Glad I found your channel

A wonderful video, really well explained. I got a lot out of it, and will likely give it a few rewatches. Thank you!
Thank you very much for this comprehensive review of Gothic Literature.
An absorbing analysis, thank you! 😊
The Abbey in The Oakwood, what an amazing painting!
Thanks for the inspiration as I'm adding more books to my wish-list now

Excellent video. Ty!
could you believe that this was the butterfly effect behind five nights at freddys
👍 'horror... freezes and annihilates the senses' 👍
Lovely video
What's the first Gothic poem?
The Caste of Otranto
@@luigibeyer The Caste of Otranto is a novel, luigbeyer, not a poem.
Thank you for this work; also, your voice is beautiful
GOTHIC ... amazing !
As regards to horror, Ann Radcliffe didn't know what she was talking about.
Not too bad ... Thanks for the upload.
I don’t think The Castle of Otranto was intended as a farce. Rather it was harking back to an earlier era where things were less modern.
you’re welcome. informative
This was verry good but is this channel dead.
This is a PHD video. Am i right. Kids a great writer. Tropes n stuff. Trope, trope,trope. We love tropes. Ear truffles.
Hurray, Gothic literature. Something actually Gothic.
O how one's tradition & pedigree of invasion & oppression are born aloft!
any gothic literatures/novels/fictions you book lovers want to recommend me? 🥹💞
J. S. Le Fanu, Wilkie Collins, Edgar Allan Poe, Dickens, are some good places to start.
The works of Ann Radcliffe, the Brontes, Frankenstein, Dracula, The Castle of Otranto, The Monk, etc.
